Find hotels in University of Central Florida

The bed was very comfortable, the bathroom was clean and well supplied, breakfast was good, the staff generally helpful (except when I asked for a recommendation for a seafood restaurant. The only restaurant suggested was a Chinese buffet nearby). My only complaint was my usual one: the air conditioning was rather noisy, even on "LOW" and blew cold air across the room. (A small partial wall fortunately prevented the air from blowing directly on our heads.) Because the only blanketing was a duvet, we had no control of our body temps. Our only choice was that we had to keep the room cold with the AC turning on and blowing every few minutes. If we had had a blanket or 2, we might had turned the AC off altogether and opened the window. Also, the fan in the bathroom was quite loud. On the plus side, we never heard our neighbors: no shower noise, no flushing, only occasional muted voices in the hallways. The exercise room was small with only 2 or 3 machines and the pool, outdoors only, was small so, for someone who would want to exercise heavily while staying in Orlando, this would not have been ideal. Since we didn't, it didn't matter to us. Yes. We would stay there again. Thank you.

Besides looking for Crossland Economy Studios, the actual name is HomeTowne Studios Orlando, which after 15 mins going back and for, finally arrived. Though the unexpected keep on coming along, no front or visible front desk. Once I found it, it was closed either by being Sunday, or the time I arrived. There was a sign stating to contact personnel using a phone located just across the "front desk". That was easy, the personnel at that time responded promptly, and helped me with the key and instructions to park and where the room was. To access the 2nd floor, the stairway and the area was really dirty, and stinky. Once in the room, I found out that there was no soap. No soap, they had run out of soap that day, that was the explanation and the poor excuse. 'Having a gas station across the parking lot, did not help either, It ran out of soap too. Not a surprise, knowing that the "hotel/project/extended stay" lodge had run out of it too.

Our entire experience with the property began on a super note. From our very first contact with Kyle at The Orlando East Courtyard, Marriott we felt at ease bringing our oldest and our younger children to the UCF East location. It was the first big move that happens only once for a college student. Kyle and the staff went out of their way to make us feel comfortable and the staff personally gave us restaurant recommendations which turned to be terrific for our needs. The hotel is super clean. We are driving up this Thursday for the football game so I better get on the phone to book the UCF East Marriott Courtyard again. Thanks everyone. See you soon.
