The hotel offers comfortable rooms with subtle Disney theming but lacks microwaves, requiring a trip to the food court for leftovers. The service is friendly and helpful, though a handout for a tip can be off-putting. The location is beautifully themed and convenient for park access, while dining options are varied but may lack certain choices. Overall, a pleasant Disney experience as expected.

My stay at the hotel was pleasant overall. Although the rooms were a bit far from the main check-in area, they were clean and not too much of a walk. The service I received during my stay was exceptional, with staff members being incredibly helpful at every turn. The location of the hotel was very nice, surrounded by beautiful landscapes and close to Port Orleans Riverside. However, dining options were limited, and it was challenging to find a place to eat. The facilities were decent, offering convenient amenities for guests.

My stay at this hotel was like staying in a lovely motel with a touch of Disney theming in the spacious and comfortable rooms. The service provided by the friendly staff was truly exemplary, mirroring the high standards of Disney customer service. The location, nestled by a winding river with stunning surroundings, offered a beautiful and relaxing environment worth the price tag. The dining experience provided a selection of healthy snacks, although limited in variety, and the facilities were satisfactory overall.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious with 2 queen-size beds, accommodating my family perfectly. The lovely decor and theming added a special touch. However, the room was a little dark, needing extra lighting. The quiet pool was a great plus, creating a relaxing atmosphere, especially when doing laundry.
