Other than some mold/mildew in the bathroom, the room was wonderful I sleep in the day and it was quiet and the curtains kept the room dark The breakfasts were outstanding, especially the made to order omelets

I loved the restaurant in the lobby I ate there all 4 days and all the meals were tasty I would definitely go again and recommend the place to friends and family

Lori Leigh O’Gara

Customer service was great, for the most part, the hotel was not It was the loudest hotel I have ever stayed in You could hear every little thing through the walls and doors

Children were running all over the place with no one saying a word to them The bed was very uncomfortable The pillows were flat The complementary toiletries were cheap The “balcony” that I was looking forward to sitting on to drink coffee and look at the lake in the morning was a 12 in ledge with a railing and a slide open window The breakfast was mediocre, the cooks doing the made to order omelets were rude The staff cleaning up the dinning area were very polite The cleaning staff were attentive The front desk staff were great The parking was ok, but several large trucks and one SUV took two and three parking spots so it was difficult to find a place to park I tend to stick with Hilton hotels because they are normally a cut above and I am rarely disappointed This time, I was wondering if I had actually booked a Hilton property or a look a like Come on, Hilton, you can do better than this

Monica Lopez

We always stay at the embassy suites and this one was probably the worst one we’ve stay at Employees were great and nice but the hotel was very out dated, our room was not clean The A/C did not work, it said it was on 65 but felt like 75

It was very humid in our room When it rained the carpet in the room by the window got soaking wet My son slept on the pull out bed and the bed was VERY uncomfortable, no padding what so ever He said he just felt the springs in the bed The staffed fixed the bed by bringing a pillow topper but that should not be necessary The buffet breakfast was good but I wish the happy hour was at least til 8 We always missed the happy hour because we were at the baseball fields for my son’s tournament At the end of our week long stay there was a huge group of people that came to stay and they took up every single seat in the lobby during breakfast time Nobody else had a place to sit during breakfast, they were not even eating so I found that annoying that we had to sit without a table to eat our breakfast Overall very disappointed in this embassy stay

Our room was clean and the linens were soft The air conditioning kicked! No musty smellsThe pool was clean and refreshing on a 90+ degree day

Plenty of pool towels and a receptacle were available for swimmers and sun bathersThe front desk folks and housekeepers were competent and friendlyBreakfast was okay—standard fareNo little league kid teams were there, which made the stay much less hectic and quieterThis is our go-to Hilton hotel whenever we’re visiting family in the Lake Mary/Sanford areas—usually 3-4 times per yearLots of eateries within a short drive/walk are available

Spencer Wilson

Great location Excellent staff Room modern and good

Pool door was close and a little loud but only for a bit Opportunity area: Had to stop by front desk to get a key card as digital key with app worked about 25% of time on both side and room doors and shower water wouldn’t get above luke temperature Overall though good hotel Would stay again

vanessa perez

STAY AWAY!! Do not waste your money here We are Hilton Honors and loyal members for a long time This by far has being the worst Hampton stayed ever

We requested early check in and were told there was rooms at arrival time The rooms are old, dirty and uncomfortable beds We probably got 3 hours of sleep The noise was unreal and barely provided necessities on the room The front staff were never available when you need them We will never stay here again

We had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The staff are accommodating and politeThe room is spacious, comfy beds, huge shampoo/con/body wash pumps in the shower, mini fridge, coffeemaker, and a microwave and cappuccino machine are by the front deskBeautiful views, nice pool and jacuzzi, huge gym, outdoor couches, and a shaded walking trail just steps away! Plenty of restaurants and a Publix across the street

Shula’s was okay Slow service but food was good Nice patioWe will definitely come here again!

Tracey T. Rice

Nice hotel Clean rooms I am sensitive to light at night so I had to put a towel down to block the massive amounts from the hallway

No cover on the peephole, so that was bright as well Room darkening curtains did a good job There was one robe for my husband and I in the large bathroom They provided a small bottle of shampoo and conditioner, but one bar of soap for both hands and body Towels were fluffy and absorbent Did not make use of ironing board, iron or safe, but they had them Coffee maker uses round filter discs exclusive to the hotel The refrigerator kept food cool and did not freeze anything Adequate for a night Across a busy 4 lane divided road to many restaurants and a movie theater Front desk staff was friendly and accommodating Did not try the Shula’s restaurant located in the hotel

Melissa L

I had to travel with my dog So grateful for a pet friendly hotel Dog-friendly rooms have laminate flooring which is super helpful

Staff has been really helpful and kind The restaurant on site (Shula’s) is expensive but good The 3 issues I had is, due to covid there is limited room cleaning, the convenience store is very limited, and parking (although is plentiful) it’s a bit of trek Rooms are clean, quiet, and well organized Not the hotels fault but I4 was under construction and there was a long detour

Jay the front desk clerk and Norris the helper,were the kindest, most knowledgeable, helpful gentlemen we’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting as hotel employees! They made us feel more like family than hotel guests 🙂 We had missed our flight and the hotel was convenient to the Sanford Airport Very clean and comfortable, nice clean pool And the hot & cold breakfast was another great plus for a great stay! The next mornings desk clerk

well, we had to get to the airport, and didn’t have time to keep waiting for her to come back to the front desk, so I just laid the room keys over the desk and left But other than that, we’d give it a 💯👍

Carli Clark

We didn’t plan our post cruise plans very well but Jay at the front desk was more than accommodating and helped us with an early check in m, plus a coupon for a free appetizer at a local restaurant The room was very clean and comfortable The entire staff worked hard to keep every bit of the hotel clean

They even helped us with a later check out time when our out going flight wasn’t until 5 and had a free airport shuttle to top it off In a time of increasingly lacking customer service This Comfort Inn and Suites delivered!

Julie Ho

I stayed here for 2 weeks for a business trip and was extremely pleased with the hotel I agree with other reviews that overall this is a great option for a Courtyard Marriott and anything similar to that The remodeled rooms were nice, everything was clean, having a small microwave and fridge in the room was very convenient

All of my concerns were always addressed by the front desk immediately and staff were always friendly The bistro had great breakfast options and having Starbucks on site was one less trip I had to make in the morning It was conveniently located as well Took about 15-20 minutes to get anywhere I wanted to go

Denise Schmidt

For the money I spent for a room per night I could have stayed at a competitor’s and had breakfast included and all the free coffee I wanted That was not the case here There is a Starbucks in the lounge and although I received a $10 voucher for each night I stayed I still ended up spending money

I asked for extra pillows my 3rd night of a 4 night stay and when I got off the elevator could see that the door to the room had been left ajar and was not closed tightly! My belongings were still inside and Marriott is very lucky that nothing was missing, ANYONE could have entered the room, COVID positive or not! (Please note I never leave anything of value in a room but that is not the point here)I walked to the front desk and complained in person and asked for a manager to contact me I am still waitingHow would you like to know that the rooms are not cleaned very well? There was a sock on the floor near the head of the bed between the bed and the table for multiple days, even after I told the front desk personnel All I was told was that she would notify the Manager of Housekeeping Again, I’m still waiting to hear from any Marriott employeeMy siblings and nieces were in town due to a family emergency, our mother was on life support so we spent our entire days at the hospital Having hotel issues during our stay did nothing to help our peace of mind while in OrlandoThis was my first stay in a Marriott and I can honestly say I was not impressed I doubt I will book with them again

Benjamin Benson

The staff is super friendly The bistro is great I like the pool and gym

Overall its a great place to stay I do wish they had a leg machine in the gym and that the bistro hours were longer That being said i have stayed here for 21 days and have another 17 scheduled next month Best “off the parks” hotel i could have found for work

Paza Pringle

This is an old, apartment style residence inn I gave it a 3 because the front desk staff in the morning and evening were sooo nice, accommodating and helpful The location itself was dated

The room was pretty clean but the smell of smoke was masked by glade fresheners The shower water pooled at my ankles, which almost sent me a mental tizzy! It’s ok for a night, but I’d definitely consider other options long term

Kris Ernest

Was one of the coolest rooms I’ve ever been in, it was a loft but way bigger than a loss I wouldn’t even have called it that I would have called it a two-story home, the breakfast every morning was stupid awesome! So good!The only thing that I didn’t like was that the communication level between the employees was ridiculous, up until the point where we left everything was cool but still with the mishaps and communication service was above average everything’s super clean service was more than you would expect, it was a little Oasis, I would recommend it to anybody

I was very impressed with the front desk clerks They were friendly and also willing to help They all had smiles on their faces, making you feel welcome

The room I stayed in was clean My bed was always made before I returned The hotel was not noisy; elevators and hallways were clean—no nasty odors I will stay there on my next visit

Jorge G

Nice clean hotel with excellent service This is my first stay at this hotel When we got to the room and turned on the heater, it wasn’t working

This happens to be the coldest weekend of the season here Called the front desk to alert them of the problem They sent a maintenance person right away The heater could not be fixed so we were immediately moved to another room The hot breakfast was good and so was the coffee

Lynn Puckett

The manager of this location is AWESOME! I had an issue with my upon check in and out with a possible pet fee for my registered and certified service guide dog I understood being asked upon check in as many people try to avoid paying fees for their pets I presented all my documents at check in

When I went to check out it was not a pretty scene when I was questioned againI reached out when I arrived home and the manager reached out personally to assure me this would never happen again at his location He assured me that all staff is trained in the handling of ADA service animals and apologized profusely for the incidentThe rooms are GREAT and very Comfortable I will try it again when the need arises The location offers safety and comfort in the Apopka area

The welcoming front desk agents (Franklin), the F&B staff (Marco), and the great Sales & Events department (Ashley) made our meetings and over night stay so pleasurable! The staff was so professional and genuinely warm and friendly The hotel was clean and the food for our 2 day catered meeting was absolutely delicious! All my coworkers raved about the food and service! Kudos to you all!

Gina F.

I recently stayed here due to an unexpected trip because of a family emergency The staff here at the hotel could not be any more welcoming, hospitable, and kind during my visit Front desk staff (standout Franklin), Samuel, housekeeper Maria, and Director of Sales, Jim Donovan! Not to forget the staff at The Coffee Bean and Bartender in the restaurant

The hotel is in a great location with easy access to restaurants, mall, grocery stores, gas stations It has it all! If you chose this hotel you will not be disappointed

Amanda Lyn

Rude staff, dirty rooms, rotting bathroom wall Peeling paint, rust on the make up mirror, as well as the walls somehow, and rusty shower head The sink was the slowest drain I have ever seen

Room so dusty my husband had an asthma attack We checked out within 8 hours The manager was no where to be found to speak to even when we called back later in the day Would have loved a refund for that first night that we only stayed 8 hours for but I’m just glad we got out and didn’t get charged for the other nights we were supposed to stay Oh and if you enjoy privacy when you use a bathroom definitely don’t stay here because the bathroom doors are sliding barn doors with huge gaps! Absolutely awful hotel I went by the good reviews and was so disappointedEDIT: director of rooms Sal Perez reached out to me and offered a partial refund and seemed responsive to training the staff Thanks sal for working to make this right!

This was an outstanding experience The housecleaning staff was very helpful With my constant season allergies I needed an extra help with the room cleaned

The skills of Ms Mariangel assisted me with my condition She paid special attention to my room cleanliness needs Also breakfast was awesome for the price I will definitely stay here again

Helene Sovern

All employees here seemed so happy and went above and beyond in helping us after we got a flat tire Torre and Corthee were so friendly (front desk) that I I will actually miss seeing their smiling faces every morning Clean hotel, quiet and absolutely perfectly located right off I-4

The hotels in this area should, however, get the City to put up a street sign on Douglas since it was a tad difficult to find the turn and the GPS was wrong in the distance from the highway

Manny M

The rooms were very nice and clean House keeping cleaned once a day which was great The pool was a good temperature

The breakfast in the morning was great !What was the best part was Corthee She checked us in and as I arrived early after 12 hours of travel and had two very tired toddlers she was able to accommodate us early and that was just the beginning After that she helped me find milk as we had just arrived and the baby needed a bottle She checked in with us everyday and made us feel like we were part of her family Both kids loved her and although it’s a little further away from Disney as I had hoped I would stay there over and over again as long as Corthee is there

Stayed for one night, and had a great experience at Orlando Marriott Lake Mary! All the people with whom I interacted were friendly and helpful, and the warm breakfast buffet more than made up for the temporary closure of the executive lounge The beds were comfortable, water pressure was great, and the rooms were clean/well proportioned I would definitely stay here again

Long time Life Platinum now Titanium Great 3 day stay till 1 AM on our last night Woke up by extremely loud guest

Sure others were disturbed Finally got back to sleep after a couple hours At least the hotel responded fairly quick after my call In the morning we got up and drove 8 hours homeWhen I said something the next morning as we were leaving, all I got was “Sometimes we have bad guests”Everything was 5 star till no real concern or consideration No points or other adjustments for this significant inconvenienceRestaurant staff and breakfast were 5 star

James Tilton

For 3 days in a row, we requested housekeeping to clean our room, refresh our towels, and restock our coffee Today, I even requested it twice It never happened

They are nice enough, but nothing ever gets done However, the a/c works, and the breakfast bar is tolerable Their website says they have laundryfacilities Kind of The dryer is broken This is not worth the money I can’t recommend this hotel

John Hagler

We were there 3 weeks When we pulled up to the front we were met by several people smoking at the front door, to include employees Check in was ok, the front desk acted like I was a inconvenience

The lobby and downstairs was dirty, the elevator was dirty, and our room was wasn’t that clean either The following morning there were cleaning ladies playing on the phones or talking to their baby daddy, not doing their job There was also other employees walking around, not in uniform, the only way I knew they worked there was because they were doing something like half-heartedly wiping the front door This was by far the worst IHG Hotel I’ve stay at I was very disappointed and won’t be staying there again

Decent hotel, but it is showing its age The wall paper in the hallways, even by the elevators on the first floor is coming off My run was fine, but again, it is showing age

The shower surround was crackedIt was a comfortable and decent stay, but the details of maintenance are lackingI unfortunately did not get to try the continental breakfast since we had a fire alarm, but that’s not the hotel’s faultOverall a comfortable stay that was having on maintenance

Jen Perkins

I am beyond irate! You get zero privacy at this hotel I was just down in the lobby at 10:20 Am and purchased Emergency Vitamin C and Aspirin as I’m not feeling well at all, and also have high blood pressure I also elected to stay an additional night this morning

The checkout here is 12pm, but at 10:30 AM the housekeeping lady knocked twice and within 3 seconds walked in as I was exasperating and yelling, ” I’m in here!” I called down to the front desk and she said she would take care if it I explained to her I could’ve been undressed or engaged in an intimate situation, totally unacceptable Then, believe it or not, at 12:09, even worse, 2 housekeepers open my door without knocking or acknowledging their presence I have lost it at this point, called down to front desk, yelling She comes up and the housekeeper tried to say they didn’t do that Unbelievable! And, now I’ve gone from feeling bad to horrible, my blood pressure is out the roof, I will not be comfortable the rest of my stay The first thing I would have done to remotely help curb the situation would be to offer a discounted rate, and at this point the whole night should’ve been comped I’ve never been so unimpressed They are very lucky, had I been unclothed either of those times, there could have been a potential civil case other hands Stay somewhere else!

Latosha Jackson

I have to say the staff here is awesome!!!! One in particular stood out from all the rest, Imran was very helpful and welcoming, I have never made a reservation and had a staff member go above and beyond to accommodate like this my daughter was traveling with her coach and I was so concerned about room placement he kept me updated about the reservation and most important my daughter said when she got there he greeted her by name , that made her feel comfortable due to it was her first time traveling without me she said it felt like homeThank you so much!!!❤ memorable moments ✨️

If I were the owner of the Hilton brand, I would yank my name off this building I stayed 2 nights at 269/per night When I arrived, the valet situation was a cluster

It appeared to be a one-way drive PACKED with parked cars, I didn’t know what to do I had a lot of bags to unload and there was no luggage cart The valet explained that they were all taken and suggested that I stop the elevator on every floor to look for a cart that someone had ditched I made two trips to fourteenth floor to get everything inChecking in, I was the only guest at the front desk, and the tall man would not even acknowledge me He seemed super stressed out The lady offered to help me instead Turns out the tall guy is the manager Now this is all making senseOnce I got in the room, I realized the toilet was clogged, and the bed-side light was flickering like an insane asylum I called the front desk to ask for a room with a working toilet and lights, but they did nothing about it The young man who works late acted like he was so aggravated that I called the front desk to ask for a wake up call He was also rude when I asked if it was too late to get food from restaurantI called down to the valet at 615am to pull up my car and when I got down there, they had ignored my request, which me late for a work event I was away for 17 hours, and since I didn’t have time to hassle with room request, I decided to ignore the issues My room was untouched, nobody serviced it, cleaned it, no coffee Which forced me to buy a $5 black coffee downstairs at Starbucks because there was no other optionThe manager at the front desk should have been my first indication that this place is a circus Between the sloppy valet, unkempt rooms, and RUDE men working the front desk, This place needs new management

Kenny Tudor

The room weren’t great The air conditioner ran constantly you couldn’t adjust the temperature so we had to turn it off so we didn’t freeze to death The room had a musty smell to it

There is a place to eat in the lobby but I wouldn’t call it a restaurant it was overpriced The location was convenient they don’t tell you on the booking sites you have to pay additional for parking

This was one of the worse hotels I’ve ever stayed in in my whole entire life Parking was horrible one way in pretty much one way out Got in my room filthy had a washcloth that someone had used had lipstick or blood I don’t know which one went and talked to the housekeeper she said she didn’t speak English so she really couldn’t help me

Really foul smell carpet was dirty really need to be renovated Horrible experience never again!! Valet worker smell completely like he just came out of the room and was smoking weed !!

I would say when it came to booking this hotel I made the mistake of not realizing that it is not anywhere near the tourist areas and I had to drive quite a ways to get to the theme parks from here The hotel was a nice place it had very friendly staff, a very good free breakfast and free parking which is a win for me because I don’t believe in fees for parking My complaints for this place is 1

No daily housekeeping which I think is ridiculous 2 The dryer was running for an hour and my clothes were still wet 3 The elevator was slow and one day it was out of service completely 4 Breakfast service ends way too early on Mondays-Fridays like I am not a morning person and if I got nowhere to be I find it annoying to have to hustle down to the lobby before 9am to get my breakfast it would be nice if they had the service end at like 9:30 or 10 the entire week because that seems more reasonable Other than those 4 issues I had a good stay at this hotel, fair price got all the amenities I needed I saw they recently renovated this hotel so that is very nice to see

4th time staying here and still outstanding, fair pricing, clean rooms and appliances, bathroom was very clean and fully stocked As of 02/18/2022 the hotel still is not offering daily housekeeping service, but anything needed is just a phone call to the front desk away Large Breakfast buffet served daily, hotel pool is well maintained and complimented with nice landscaping

Will definitely be back next year!

Worst hotel I ever stayed in at this price point As soon as we got in our room we noticed that the sink in the bathroom was broken This was followed by a TV that did not work

We then tried to call the front desk but the phone just rang and rang no one answered We found a roach in the room the pool was dirty and equipment was rusted out The windows were filthy The ice machine on our floor did not work The rooms were run down Definitely skip this hotel and spend your money on something of better quality

Extremely disappointing We stayed there for 2 nights one of them being our wedding night This was 2 years in planning due to Covid

We had many family members and friends from out of town book the hotel as well Brought in more than 16 room nights for the property We worked this out with the property’s event coordinator The day before our wedding we checked in and the front desk agent was rude when we tried to check in early We had bumped into the GM, Kamal, later that day and expressed out excitement of our wedding day The next day, our wedding day, I talked to the lady at the front desk and mentioned that we’d be out of the room later that evening and if she would be so kind to set something nice up in our room while we were gone since it would be our wedding night She said she’ll see what she can do I also told her I would be more than happy to pay for whatever they added into the room I’ve worked into hotel for over 10 years both front desk and housekeeping leadership positions so I know this should be something they had planned since we had this plan for over 2 years We returned to the room later that night to nothing Our bed was made up and items ended up missing on our room including a wedding card that contained $200 as an early gift We didn’t notice it was gone until we got back home since a wedding consumes a lot of other thoughts in our minds When we wrote our review directly to the property the best response we got from the property was “ We do really apologize we could not make your stay nice and convenient Best Regards, Hotel Team” which is by far the biggest slap in the faceSadly, they also manage the Hampton next door so this area is not worth it and I would highly recommend a different property considering the lack of service and empathy this property has

The room was great!!! Arrived 23 minutes before check and got told by Virginia we had to wait till 3pm to check in No problem! She then checks two people in that had 3pm reservations No problem!!! Then they charge us a no show fee

When we arrived and left on time The desk guy couldn’t explain to us their mistake and gave us a hard time about giving us our money back Will avoid this place forever Would like to add we come to apopka once a month for a softball tournament

BED BUGS! WARNING!!! BED BUGS!!!We stayed the night with my daughter, she went to bed and woke up the next morning complaining of bug bites on her stomachWe were in a hurry and had to leave, I can not express how many bed bug bites were covering her body when we got to our location 15 minutes away, not 1 or 2, PLENTY of mothers were confirming that they were bed bugsI called the hotel and they said to send the pictures and they would check the room

They returned an email and said that the room was fine and that they would have the pest control company take care of itIf there is no issue with bed bugs why then do you need pest control??I sent pictures of the massive amounts of bed bug bites and still zero concern for my childDO NOT take your money and spend it at this hotel!I have sent them the pictures, they should be ashamed, especially after reading the reviews and seeing this is NOT the 1st case of bed bugs happening at this hotelYou do not take ownership of your business’s issues!CLEAR OUT THE BED BUGS

This is an older Double tree that is in need of a renovation The spa rooms have had the bathrooms updated some what with a shower with a nice sliding glass door and shower head, but the rooms are a little on the small side and the beds are very soft They have a nice air purifier in the spa rooms as well

But found the room to be very warm, even though the temp was set to 70 degsThe bar area is easy to get to and the restaurant is not bad The workout room is very nice for a hotel and they have a large pool out back but the pool for some reason is not the invitingWould I stay here again, yes, but I would prefer the Hampton Inn and suites if you are a Hilton member as it is near by and rooms are a little nicer and the pool is a lot more inviting as well

Michael Krieger

I stay with Hilton Property hotels often This hotel was convenient for business needs and had many food options available nearby Breakfast seemed expensive, my room only had 2 clothes hangers, no mini fridge, and no water bottles offered at check-in (I have member status)

Overall a nice stay and they were gracious enough to extend checkout time by 1 HR so that I could work in my room up until the time that I needed to go to the airport

Emily Hathcock

When I first arrived I had high hopes for this hotel I checked reviews, it was in a good location ( close to the school and plenty to eat and shop around the area) and the lobby was very nice However, for the price, the room had no microwave or a mini fridge

It had an old small coffee maker only A little disappointed as I had some small snacks I would have liked to have refrigerated The A/C was loud and the room had a musty smell I could live with that – but the shower wall had long black hair all over it and in the morning I woke up to a roach scurrying across the room ! The blow dryer was encrusted with fingerprints and someone’s hair product I couldn’t even use it The roach and dirty bathroom is what really made this stay ruined – also didn’t offer continental breakfast, and without a way to store your own food in the room it seemed a little much

Very nice hotel our room was very clean and all the staff members were super helpfulMartha took care of us with every request and even checked in on us on the phone to ensure we were enjoying our stay Breakfast was good although not free it was worth it Will bring my family here again when visiting Orlando

Tom Warfield

This is officially the last Courtyard I’ll stay at I’m not sure what this brand is trying to do, but they offer very little amenities ( I couldn’t get hot water or tea bags half the days of the week I stayed here), no housekeeping the entire week, their restaurant wasn’t open This is not the only Courtyard I’ve left wondering why I didn’t stay somewhere else

The room was clean and dark, so it wasn’t all bad
