Vacation Village at Parkway - Building 17

My wife and I have been coming here for a couple years now. (We only live 55 miles away.) We always stay for eight days/seven nights. The rooms are great -- large, clean, separate bedroom, and full kitchen! The staff is responsive to our requests. Super convenient to I-4 east or west. We dig the huge hot tub and massive pool. (I believe there are actually seven pools throughout.)

Nice hotel. Only issue we had some roaches in the room. We complain and they change to another bldg. The hotel is nice. The gym is poor needs improvement. The hallways are old needs some improvement. People are nice a good hotel to go and visit the parks and stay for the night.

Building 17 was a little outdated and RM was a little worn. However pools and hot tubs were nice and Jacuzzi in room made up for it

Pool area is perfect for the family as it is not too deep. The parking situation could be a little better. I also had an issue with my key card where it had to scan it a few times as it didn't always read correctly. They should definitely have ice and water machines on every floor. It's a little random that only the 3rd floor had an ice machine. The rooms are a good size. Overall it was a good stay for the family.

Overall it was decent to stay with our timeshare. One thing that I really have to point out that turned me off was during check-in, you need to get a parking pass for your vehicle. Well you check in then are sent to another area to get the parking pass where they are tasked with getting you signed up for a tour. I didn’t initially realize why they were setting me up with a time for breakfast and to view a room, even though we already own timeshares and in this network (not same location). So long story short the guy started out all nice and pleasant when he asked me for $20 to hold my spot it clicked what it was for and I said no. Well as soon as I said no I’m all set (I wasn’t rude about it initially), the guy was like a light switch and his facial expressions, mannerisms, and speech chan
