loud a c noisy music

The location is close to several stores and food shops.

The air conditioning unit was very loud. It was hard to sleep with the noise (I even tried earplugs!). Loud music from the pool area played until late at night, preventing me from sleeping. The volume was a real nuisance.

Acceptable Stay with Minor Issues

stocked bar friendly service bizarre schedule little information

Our bartender Lisa provided a great experience. She was on top of our drink order. The bar was fully stocked. She offered friendly service and a great atmosphere.

The complimentary transportation from Disney Springs existed, but the lady I spoke with had no information. The schedule for the transportation is bizarre. It did not offer many opportunities for going to the parks.
