Date of Stay: May, 2008
Their site advertises a "Denny's" on location, however, that has long been gone. There are very friendly people such as Mike at the Tiki Bar and Jonathan the security guard. I really enjoyed my stay as it is within walking distance to nearly everything and they do have the best outdoor pool in that location.

toilet didnt flush unless you held down the handle, water in the shower fluctuated hot and cold, carpet was dirty, vending and ice machines did not work or were empty, air was not working properly and tv remote was inoperable.

This hotel was terrible, I will never stay there again. There were roaches in the bathrooms (dead and alive)and the hotel itself needs a face lift. I dont recommend anyone to stay there unless its a last resort!

The only good thing I can say is that the location of the hotel was great. As for the rest it was dirty, noisy and the staff were not helpful or nice.

I would not recommend this hotel to anyone. The room and the surroundings were filthy, our children wouldn't want to swim in the pool. People who lived in the hotel were mostly youngsters or schoolclasses. The only place near the hotel where we could eat was Dennys, that served only american style food (lots of fat). We were also charged too much at first but after discussions with the personell they corrected it. You should take in to some other Days Inn on the International Drive instead, because that street is full of shops and restaurants.

I was utterly delighted with the Days Inn, Caravan Court, Orlando. It was right on the trolley line, and it was door to door to the convention center. The pool was great. The connected Dennys staff were great. THe quiet latout of the area was perfect. I'd stay there again in preference to the Hilton, or Doubletree, if offered it, for the same price. Excellent all round.

The hotel is very well located, so if you are going to Orlando just for the fun of the parks. It's a nice and quiet hotel. And the pool is nice for a relax with the children.

1. Upn ariaval the gave me the key to open the door. The key did not work. I had to stay outside my room for 30 min's till someone came to help me 2. Upon arriaval they took $30 deposit 3. When I left at 3:30AM the receptionist told me the following: "She was doing internal auditing and my $30 deposit was going to be mailed to me" - As of right night - 10 day's later, I have not received the money! I will never recomend this "project motel" to anyone! thanks

We needed a place to stay to be close to Universal Studios and yet not to far from the airport for an early morning flight. We got our wake up call at 4:30, and found that we could not turn on the shower! I called the front dest and was told we could change rooms. Like I want to change rooms at 4:30 AM when it is 40 degrees outside! We had to walk clear around the building to another room just to shower. The front desk staff could have cared less about the inconvienence! No attempt was made to address the problems. I would NOT stay at this hotel again. The great location and low rate was NOT worth the aggevation and inconvienance.BE WARNED!

I would not recommend this to anyone with health problems. There was very visible mold/mildew in the air conditioning vents and on the walls! The beds were comfortable. The drain was slow in the shower. Considering we were in the room so infrequently, the cost and location worked out for us.

Check-in time of 4:00 set in stone - inconvenient. Pets accepted with 10/night surcharge. Very basic - no breakfast, coffee, etc. Short drive down the road to Starbucks, Walgreens and Publix. Carpet stained, grounds not pristine, but good for pet owners. Service varied. Check-in was rude, but other staff were friendly. Shuttle buses not good option - they run once a day, after the parks open and return once before the park closes. It is roughly a one-mile walk to the entrance to Universal Studios, less to City Walk. Couldn't get high-speed to work and then couldn't get anyone at the front desk to help. A little noisy - the rooms are all outisde entrance and guests were loud coming and going througout the night. Overall, a pretty good value for basic, pet-friendly hotel. We would likely stay there again.

I would not stay here again. Although it was clean, it was very run down and noisy and did not feel safe. Shady people around etc.

This hotel is such a dive! The only reason why I booked this hotel was because it was about a mile from universal studios. The check in service was late, the room had not been cleaned, the sheets had s and insect feces on them, mold was everywhere, the room stank, the carpet was damp, there were ants, and to top it all off paint from the walls were falling off in dinner plate size chunks on to the bed with the blood and insect stained sheets! Needless to say I did not end up staying the night at this hotel. The only positive thing about my whole experience at this "hotel" was that I was given a full refund.

This hotel was not conveniently situated to the attractions/locations needed by the business traveler. Travel to get around (taxi) was expensive & late in arrival time (over 45min late). Would not recommend this hotel.
 
From: Angela
Date of Stay: March, 2007
I will never stay at another Days Inn. There was no transportation from airport other than $50 taxi ride each way, no free breakfast, and no free coffee. The Jacuzzi and most of the vending machines were not working. The other guests were noisy. My room smelled bad, had water damage, had ants or termites crawling on the bathroom counter, and was overall very gross. The extra cost of the taxi to and from airport , breakfast and coffee at a diner every day, plus the hotel's daily convenience charge.

You get what you pay for, for the money, it was well worth it from cleanliness of room to short walk to universal studios, I would stay there again, Dennis next door had horrible service, very rude waitresses, we ate there only once, and thank god there were many restaurants within walking distance. For the price I paid for my daughter and myself, single income, on a budget, it was well worth it.

This hotel was very filthy. Nothing like the pictures we looked at. They said I would get one. I did not get one! I also booked 2 extra rooms for my family for Friday and Saturday nights asking for 2 handy-cap rooms. Those 2 two ended up on the 2nd floor. Their attitude when I wanted them changed, was take what we have or leave it. The manager straightened it out and immediately gave me 3 handy-cap rooms. They were also unfinished, with paint peeling off the tub and sink, wallpaper peeling off the walls, just a big disappointment with our hotel experience. Please call 419-526-2831. Thank you.

Good if you are looking for a clean hotel, with a microwave, refrigerator and heated pool. Nearby everything like restaurants, outlets, malls, universal and Disney.
