(152 reviews) Exactly what we needed for our stay in Disney. Was first time we have stayed off property and besides not getting in to the park early, this place was great. It rained on us every day at the park and was nice to be able to through our jacket in the dryer! On negative i will say is the washer and dryer was loud HA! But other than that place had everythign we needed. Oh and fyi this place was not 3 bed rooms. It was 4! Maybe because it didtn have a bathroom? Not sure but was 4 bedroom 3 and half bath. HA kids liked havign there own rooms with own bathrooms. And so did I! Was thankful we was not crammed on an on park hotel with one room and one bathroom! Had 2 masters with Kings, one upstairs one down, and then the other 2 rooms was up stairs with one being two twins with bathroom then the other room was just a bunk. Would stay here again for sure.
