"We stayed for about a week while visiting family in the NE Orlando area. The room was comfortable, as was the bed, and the hotel was quiet during sleeping hours. We were on the top floor, which probably helped. The desk and housekeeping staff were very friendly and helpful. Of the hotels near UCF, the LaQuinta is further off a main road (Alafaya or University) than most, and we rarely heard traffic noise. The parking lot was decently lit.
There were a few quirks: The toilet in the bathroom was quite low and could be difficult for an older person to get off of without help. The hot water from the sink and shower taps was very hot, which could be an issue for children. The in-room fridge froze the food we brought until we were able to turn it down. The breakfast bar had multiple options available, but the choices were the same almost every day. I could choose between scrambled eggs and sausage or fried eggs and sausage depending on the day. I am gluten free, so the cereal, bagel and waffle options were off limits. The TV plugged into a wall socket where the power was off when the entry light was turned off, so we had to reboot the TV every time we watched. (A first world problem for sure!) The hotel staff helped us get it working.
The hotel has an overall rating of 4.6, which seems about right. It is not a five-star hotel, but it is very nice and we would definitely stay there again."
