Palm Lakefront Resort & Hostel Reviews

It's very far away from Universal Studios, quite hard to find and very expensive to get to from airports and the Greyhound. The bus service sucks, but that's not their fault. The atmosphere was lovely and very friendly, but the transport issues were a bit of an ordeal. Take care, it's better value to stay closer than pay for inevitable problems with sporadical transport.

We had a great stay there at the hostel.Some good and some bad. Firstly it was very clean and tidy with great facilities. The staff seem to be absent some of the time and checking in was a bit tricky. However they are very friendly and helpful when they are around. I would also like to say that although the Hostel is quite out of the way the shuttle service is very good. BUT don\'t use it if you are in a hurry as it he is not very punctual. We almost missed our bus!Nice stay overall

1)The manager is a very nice person, but he arrives late in the morning and for his afternoon hours. This left people waiting at the locked front door for two hours in the morning, waiting for him. 2)This hostel could benefit by asking guests to volunteer to do one or more chores as a requirement for staying there. Create a list of possible chores to do and have guests pick and choose from the list. It could include things like emptying the garbage, painting outdoor bench or 5 dock boards

Hostel is in remote part of town, definitely need a renovation/update. I like how it got various things to do around the hostel like the swimming pool/lake/fishing.

This is a nice place to stay if you are looking to go to Disney Theme Parks and don\'t want to spend a fortune in Hotels. It is not at all fancy, but meet the basic requirements of cleanliness and comfort. Besides, the owner is really friendly and helpful! The hostel offers a shuttle to Universal studios as well.

i really liked the place. the people were nice and the atmosphere was good. good location if u want to go to disney. shuttle to universal and the guy from reception is nice too. helps u when u have a problem and stuff. definitly recommend this place. had a great stay.

I don\'t normally leave reviews but there was just so many small things everywhere that just added to a big problem. The staff was very polite and kind and the other people staying were also great.

You get what you pay for, The property has seen better days. (It shows in the bathroom) but has been repainted recently. And is pretty cheap. Rooms have ensuits. Not the cleanest I've seen. I found the bed to be quite firm (too hard for me). There is a pool and a dock over the very beautiful lake.

We didnt stay for long enough to enjoy the pool, but it looked great, and the guy at the desk was very helpful- we had made an incorrect booking and had been charged for a no show but he gave us a discount on this night's stay which was lovely of him. We were also put in a 6 person ensuite despite there only being 2 of us which was great- very clean and efficient, the kitchen was awesome. There are 2 dogs wandering around and it seems like the guy runs it on his own with no help from his wife...

Very good！！！Nice placw nice people!!

Es un lindo hostel, normal, sin mayor problemas. Es un poco lejos de Universal y Sea world, pero es facil llegar en bus, ellos te dan las indicaciones.

The manager there gave me a feeling that they really really want to make money from me, which made me not comfortable.

the hostel/motel was easy to get to both universal studios and disney world. the lake and pool out the back were cool and the staff heapful. the kitchen is really good with a big supermarket across the road and the public bus stop out the front.

Beautifully located hostel with nice common rooms/facilities. Rooms are realy basic but OK.

I liked averything, and I am very satisfied. If they invest some money in venom for crocroaches would be perfect!

Although Orlando is just more than huge to take a look around in few days, the location to places other than Disney World was quite bad. The room had many cockroaches and the baggage security is wholly upon your risk. However, the warm hospitality of the staff to take care of your needs and the adjacenity to supermarkets such as Publix or Seven Eleven is excellent!

2nd time ive stayed at Palm Lake and its always a great time there.Aaron the manager is real helpful.Only a short distance to Disney is a bonas too

Pool was closed but amenities were adequate/as expected. Pretty good deal.

The whole room is so dirty that we have to sleep with our clothes on.

The owner of hostel is a Very nicE PerSon And every service At hostel is very good and location is the best Part of it as public transporation is very convienent. Overall my expErience is good
