“Wonderful Property - Sloooow Internet”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 February 2012
1
person found this review helpful

Most of the other reviews seem to cover the basics of this hotel: Large, spacious suites that are clean, comfortable, and close to all sorts of attractions on International Drive. The rooms even have King beds, which is a plus given that many extended stay places usually have Queen beds, or smaller.

The only real downside was their wireless internet. Unfortunately, during most of my 3-night stay, their Wi-Fi ran EXTREMELY slow. 56k modem slow. Especially during peak hours (like the evening). Maybe that's not a big deal for most guests, but for me it was pretty important, and the only reason I can't give the hotel an "Excellent" rating.

Other then the issues with the internet, the property was a great stay, at an amazing price.

“Good Hotel for a family or a weeks stay”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 February 2012

Was in Orlando for a trade show. This hotel is very convenient for those working or attending a trade show at the Orange County Convention Center. "free" Hot Breakfast buffet in the morning is a huge plus. Lots of restaurants/bars within walking distance. The suites provide two rooms, fridge, microwave, stove...so perfect for a family or for those that dont want to eat out every meal..good way to save money.

Room Tip: Ask for a view of the pool

“Excellent Stay! Would definitely visit again!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 February 2012

WE would definitely come back. The customer service is outstanding and they go way beyond your expectations to make sure you have an amazing stay! Tatiana went out of her way to make sure our stay was comfortable and welcoming. She truly is a wonderful employee and we had an excellent time due to the outstanding service she provided.

The room was plush and comfortable, always clean and the breakfasts were fantastic. I so appreciate the care and personal attention we received during our stay and I owe a HUGE thanks to Tatiana! Thank you for everything. We had a magical time at Disney and we enjoyed a fabulous stay at the Homewood Suites. Thank you Tatiana!

“Well placed, good value”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 February 2012

Stayed many years ago on a previous visit to the Mouse, thought we'd try it again. Only 15 minutes from Orlando International. Still well up to expectations. Very good space with a living room with kitchen area, good-sized bedroom with separate washbasin and wardrobe area, and bathroom with shower and loo. Pluses - free buffet breakfast so you can stoke up for a long day at the parks, and Monday-Thursday a free 'welcome home' snack - pasta or salads or similar in the early evening. Good location - plenty of places to eat nearby, plus other entertainment at Pointe Orlando, and two minutes driving brings you to I-4 to get to the parks.
Recommended.

“This place rocks!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 January 2012

people found this review helpful

Myself and my wife spent 8 nights here on our recent honeymoon.

When we booked it we had the impression that it would be a no-frills hotel in a convenient location. We were right about the location but completely wrong about it being just another inexpensive place to stay.

The location is excellent. You are within walking distance of so many good places to eat (Bahamas Breeze, Millers etc.), there are bus stops almost directly outside, you can rent a car across the road, cheap helicopter tours nearby and free shuttles to Orlando and Disney. There is also a Walgreens less than 5 minutes away.

When we arrived we were given such a warm reception by the staff at the front desk (Nancy & Luis I think). It was that greeting (and the bottle of complimentary wine) that set the tone for the rest of our stay. The room was large, clean and comfortable. You get plenty of living area, two HDTVs, a large fridge, 2 hobs and a microwave.

One thing that isn't mentioned is the "Manager's Reception" which is essentially free Dinner most nights. It is perfect if you're feeling a bit peckish and it consists of good and honest food. The complimentary breakfast was great too.

There were laundry facilities on our floor too, handy for getting your clothes clean before the next part of your adventure. I think it was pretty cheap too, something like 2 dollars for a wash and 2 for a dry.

All in all this place is the perfect base for a trip to the Orlando parks. I'll most likely be back and I'll certainly be directing my family and friends in its direction.
