This Holiday Inn was a great stay for our trip. The grounds and room felt safe and clean. The room was clean and the bathroom had all the soaps you need. The pillows and beds were comfortable. The pool area was beautiful as well. We enjoyed the Golden Coral right behind the hotel also. Everything was close and only 6 or 7 miles from the Orlando speed world which is where we heading for an event. Great hotel and great spot close to a lot of shopping.

Rooms are clean but old. Had to change 2 rooms because dripping water from above roof was hitting the window and would not let sleep. Probably a condensation from air conditioning above. There was no rain at that time. Safe did not work in a second room. I was offered to use front desk key but I would have to come for it and bring it back every time I needed to open the safe. Long wait for the elevators since staff was using them to move around and clean the rooms. Breakfast was good. Nothing special but freshly made. Staff was responsive to requests about the rooms. Did not offer any help with both moves though.

And considerable construction outside of property along with construction in the property that was noisy. My family had to move rooms because of roaches and a broken door. Very poor experience.

The most humid hotel room I've ever stayed in. You could smell the wetness in the air. Paper bags i had left in the room became soft to the touch. On top of that, it seems like housekeeping did not change the duvet when they serviced the room; I had spilled a bit of food on it the night before, and i came back to the bed made, but the very same stain was in the very same place on the duvet. There was also a half-dead roach in the middle of the room on my last night. I will not be returning.

Nice hotel aesthetically but not the best on cleaning. The carpet in my room was beginning to fray, there was a bit of mold in the bathroom and there was a pair of socks from the previous guest that was left behind under the bathroom counter next to the blow dryer. Overall not a bad hotel but cleanliness could have been better for the price. Also no breakfast which for the price, and for the cleanliness, was the least they could do. I’d give it a 6-7 out of 10.

Stayed for two nights. Decent hotel. Beds were comfortable. Hotel could use a deep cleaning. I don’t usually look under beds but this time my glasses fell behind the bed and as I was looking for them in noticed layers of dust and cow webs it was nasty with layers of dust. Kind of made me a little uncomfortable but other than that it was ok.

The room smelled of mold and was very damp the night we checked in. Because it was late, we tried to make the best of it. The bed was nice, but everything felt damp. My sinuses started acting up. In the morning the situation was not improved. Next to the window in the corner, there was mold. When we went to the front desk, we were told they replaced all the windows, so maybe that is were the excess moisture was coming from. They offered another room, but it had the same smell, we did not see mold. We checked out early.

Highly recommend!

This building is a bit outdated and needs work, but overall it was clean and enjoyable. What made this hotel exceptional was the kindness and friendliness of its staff. The front desk, hospitality staff, and the maintenance staff. We had an issue with our door all weekend where maintenance had to come by several times to reprogram the lock. Despite this annoyance, they were prompt and friendly. One staff member in particular, Mrs. Shaleeza Rios in the restaurant, deserves special recognition. We had an issue with my daughter's meal which she could not finish because 1. she is an 8 year old child and 2. she has medical gastric issues. The "restaurant manager" had a nasty attitude, no empathy whatsoever, and was unwilling to understand that an 8 year old could not finish her meal and wanted to take the remainder to go. They do not allow items to be taken out of the restaurant under any circumstances. I agree with the policy that you cannot take away buffet items taking meals and items to go (even though you have to pay for breakfast as it is not included). What I am referring to is opened items which my daughter had half eaten already and were going to be thrown away anyway. Mrs. Shaleeza had the empathy that the restaurant manager LACKED. She was very kind and he needs a customer service training. Considering the number of hotels in the UCF area that include tasty free/included buffet breakfast, this restaurant may want to reconsider their policy to remain competitive.

The maintenance guy that morning showed up in my room was on the phone at my desk I’d not checked out!! The manager Alex was contacted the next day and he made it right with my stay.

The room was perfectly fine. However, customer service was horrendous at best. The front desk was devoid of personnel when checking in. I even screamed for anyone after waiting for a significant amount of time. Finally, a staff member comes out of the bathroom (totally unfazed) to check us in. This is the only hotel in which the stairs are available for emergency situations only. This presented a major impediment due to my claustrophobic condition. When asked, I was told that a staff member would have to open the door for me from the inside, and I'd have to come into the hotel from a side door. The story flipped the following morning, when I asked for the door to be opened, and the front desk lady told me that she would not open the doors because they were for emergency situations only. Mind you, she was exceedingly condescending and rude. She made no effort to accomodate my special needs. I highly suggest that a sign is posted or that guests are warned about this major drawback. I would have not chosen this hotel based on this alone. During my first breakfast experience, once again, there was no staff to be found. I had to notify the front desk, only for the kitchen staff to ignore them when questioned. I waited so long that even I went to the kitchen to ask for service. Even then, I still had to wait some more. This hotel has some serious customer service issues to address, and I shouldn't have to remind you of the countless lodging options the city has to offer.

I could nearly give a 100% excellent rating to my stay at this hotel. It was very clean and the service was great! Upon arrival, my husband and I discovered our bathtub drain was slow-draining after we showered AND our closet door was broken and hanging cockeyed on its hinge. We told the desk clerk about it and then left out for a few hours--and when we returned later, found that both problems had been taken care of 100%! So the staff did an excellent job! We ate dinner one night at the hotel restaurant and found it to be very affordable with a pretty decent selection of yummy-sounding and interesting dishes.We were not disappointed--everything was quite delicious! It was a great culinary experience! The only problem we had--and it is a big one--was with the pillows on the bed. They looked big and fluffy but as soon as my head was on one, it sunk right down to the mattress. No support at all! I piled 2 pillows on top of each other and still it was VERY bad! I truly did not get a decent night of sleep in the 4 nights that I stayed there, because of the truly awful pillows! I kept rearranging and fluffing them throughout each night to no avail. My husband had the same experience. Please get some decent/quality pillows on your beds, Holiday Inn--they are so very important to a good night of sleep. If not for the pillows, I would give the Holiday Inn Orlando East a "100% great in every way" review. But I can't--the pillows were hard to deal with and cost us very valuable sleep.
