H.I. Express lbv On palm parkway?

[jerseygirl81]

We are thinking about staying here for our trip in November. We can stay here at a good rate. It would be less expensive than a value resort and would include breakfast. We will have a rental car whether we stay in or outside of Disney, I realize we will have to pay to park at Disney. If you have stayed here how did you like the hotel? How is the pool, the room, the breakfast? Do all the rooms have a balcony? I'm hoping the pool would be heated in November. Thanks, Linda

Hi Linda. We've stayed there 3 times, (most recently Oct 2010), and will be there again next week. .
Only complaint I've ever had there is the elevators are a bit slow. Pool area is large, plenty of room, but pool itself is not small but not big either. It does have a slide which the kids love. Rooms we're always very clean and staff was very friendly and attentive. All rooms have a balcony, request a room on the side of the main entrance. (opposite side has unpleasant view of abandoned hotel.) Breakfast was decent. Can't complain about free. There were eggs, bacon or sausage, toast, bagels and fruit. Also cold cereal. (fruit loops, frosted flakes from what I remember.) And of course, Coffee and Juices. About what you can expect for a free breakfast. Definitely a money saver. Overall we like staying here. Also if you needed to know, they have washer and dryers. This is usually the first place I look up when we go to Orlando. Location is very close to DTD, though not walking distance. All I ask for in a hotel is a clean room and friendly staff and this place is it. Hope this helps Linda. Good Luck, Michael

We stayed here for one night about 3 years ago. Room was very clean and quite large. I don't remember a balcony at all, though. Could swear it was just a large window, but my memory may be wrong. Pool looked cute but on the small side. Breakfast was nice. Staff was friendly. No complaints at all. We often stay off site for a night before an onsite stay and would book here again in a heartbeat.
