Comfortable Room and Nice Staff
Just stayed here for a one night stop-over. The hotel is in a convenient location and was clean and comfortable. The first room I was assigned was next to the lobby and vending machines. It was a bit noisy with the vending machines on the other side of the wall by the bed. I spoke to the reception and they were very responsive in relocating me to a quieter room.

You get what you pay for
Stayed at the Baymont for a conference at the Orange County Convention Center. Conveniently located for that, and the price was right. Free Wi-Fi was nice, free breakfast was Ok. However, the hallways smelled heavily of cigarette smoke, there were holes in the blanket on the bed, and the bathroom sink drain was broken. Didn't use other amenities.

Good hotel
Hotel has good location, only 10 minutes drive to Universal Studios City Walk. A lot of hotels around and district is very quiet. Room is big and clear. Bed and pillow - no complains. Wi-Fi Internet is free but slow. Reception staff was not very cooperative.

Unbeatable location for the price
The room is clean and great breakfast. However, at nights I felt so noisy due to the neighbor room.

Not a bad place to stay
Check in was quick and easy as was check out. Hotel room wasn't to bad. A little small for us and did not have a microwave or refrigerator. Beds were comfortable. AC worked great. Hotel was off the beaten path(on a quiet NON busy street) yet within walking distance to everything on I-drive. Breakfast was waffles, cereal and bread items(toast/bagels). We did not eat the breakfast as we wanted more. Pool was clean looking but small. We did not use the pool since we went to water parks and the Disney theme parks.

Very nice hotel at a good price
Rooom and bath were clean and comfortable. Plenty of towels. A/C was a little noisy. Easy access to I-4 (depending on traffic and time of day. No refridgerator in room. They have a continental breakfast but I didn't try it. Small pool. Hotel is on a quite street between Universal Drive and International Drive. But it's easy to miss off Sand Lake drive. The easiest access is to go north off Sand Lake on Universal or International and turn on Carrier St, then come down Canada Rd from the north. Overall a very nice hotel and location for a good price.

When leaving the hotel for the day do not try and go out onto Sand Lake Road. Instead go north on Canada and turn left to International Drive or right to Universal Drive. Both have lights where you can more easily get headed where you want to go.

Fair price, not excellent.
The hotel shows its age or lack of maintenance. Although the room was reasonably clean, everything in the hotel was very noisy and the lack of isolation was evident. Breakfast was good if you like cereal and milk, because for the rest, the toasters didn't work. The most serious problem is to have no place to sit. How is it possible to have only 18 seats for breakfast in a 100-room hotel? The absence of shuttles to the parks removes some appeal from the low price achieved, and because you can not walk the distance, it brings extra costs, either on parking or in taxis. Anyway, it was cheap but would not recommend it to my friends.
