We stayed here from June 24th to July 4th, and it was great! As stated before the hotel seems brand new. I booked the stay directly through Radisson, if you are staying for more than 7 days, there is a special extended stay rate that is available only through their website.
I had a room with two queen beds and a pull out sleeper sofa. It's nice to have the extra bed, one of the few hotels of this price range to accommodate up to 6. There is a flat TV on the wall with a video input for a gaming system. There is also an in room safe, refrigerator, microwave, and coffee maker.
The bathrooms have nice marble counters with a fancy sink and faucet.
The beds are pretty comfortable, with adjustment for firmness. One thing though, each side of the bed gets two pillows, which is normal, but one of the pillows is HUGE! I couldn't get the pillows situated properly! Radisson should go to a system of smaller pillows like Hampton Inn where there are several different types of pillows to choose from for each person. with varying degrees of firmness.
Some people mentioned the highway noise. I had a room facing the highway, and none of us thought the noise was bad. Also, some mentioned the AC turning off and on, I didn't find this to be much of a problem. The AC is controlled by a wall mounted thermostat. Noise from hallways or adjoining rooms was also not a problem.
The pool area is also good, and was hardly ever busy. There is also a bar that looked good, but didn't have a chance to visit.
Since there is a center median you will more than like have to perform the U-turn mentioned in earlier reviews to get to your hotel, or to get to I-4. Most of the time the U-turn is not a problem, only during peak traffic times is it a pain.
The location of the hotel is very good with quick access to theme parks. Also, plenty of restaurants and a grocery store is just north of the hotel in the Crossroads shopping center.
There are a few things I would like to see at this hotel. Better Wi-Fi access, and a place to do laundry. There is a cleaners less then a mile north of the hotel, we took our clothes there for basic wash and fold, kind of expensive but we didn't have to deal with laundry on our vacation! Oh, and a larger trash bin would be good too!
Overall I was very pleased with the hotel, and would seriously consider staying here again.
