Has anyone stayed at the Renaissance Worldgate?

[LTMC]

We have reservations at the Renaissance Worldgate next month and was wondering if anyone has stayed there before? Is it clean? Not too far from Disney access? Any advice apprecated.

We are also staying there next month and would love some info on the hotel. Mainly bus transportation since I will be using it one day during our trip while DH and DS go to Kennedy.

I can't tell you anything about the bus transportation because we always rent a car. We stayed there last year for the first time and we're staying there again this year.

We got this hotel on Price Line and we were very happy with it. The room was clean and the bed comfortable. The drawers are under the window so the room appears bigger because there's no dresser to take up space. They provide a fridge, safe, and complimentary coffee. The bathroom has a Garden Tub and is a little small but not too bad. There's a back way to the parks (directions are provided by the desk clerks on request) and you miss 192 completely.

The restaurant is a little pricy and we didn't eat there but they have a breakfast and snack bar that was inexpensive. It had the usual continental breakfast items (not included in the price of your hotel) and snack foods like chips and such.

They also have a gift shop on premises. We didn't get anything there so I don't know if it's expensive or not.

The pool was very nice and clean. We sat out by the pool for an an afternoon and enjoyed it.

I think you'll like this hotel. There's some other reviews on the Price Line web site here which gives some more details. It starts on 5/11/01 but keep scrolling and you'll come to a more recent one (August 2003 I believe). Just bear in mind that these are reviews from Price Line bids and they might be different if they paid full price.
