Will look forward the the dogwalkers report in March. We are not expecting 5* just decent, clean accomodation. We will be going with an open mind and if its not to an exceptable standard we will complain.

Well, here we are back from our 2 weeks at the Enclave Suites.
Having read some of the poor reports on this hotel my wife & I breathed a sigh of relief when we opened our apartment door.
We had a studio apartment (basically a room with a small kitchen) and for us it was ideal. The apartment was spotlessly clean and maintained that way by the maids. Used towels & bath mat were replaced daily and bed linen every 3 days. (TIP - leave one. We left $2 on the table when we went out each day).
The kitchen is very basic, fridge - microwave - coffee percolator - blender - a small grill/toaster - a 2 ring hob - and of course - a dishwasher. The kettle takes ages to boil on the hob - it's worth taking a travel kettle for your morning cuppa (don't forget an adapter).
The TV is connected to a network which provides some TV channels free, also films, nintendo and internet are available at a price.
The only faulty item was the air conditioner switch would not work, we reported it on our way to breakfast and when we returned an hour later it had been fixed.
We were in block 3 which is the one nearest I-drive and unfortunately next to the go-cart track which is a little noisy to say the least. It's OK with the windows shut but if you want to sit on your balcony it's a little intrusive. They shut down around 11.30 pm.
There was very little noise in the hotel although we noticed some rooms were close to the lifts and main doors which I would think may be a bit noisy.
The free breakfast you colect and take to your room is nothing more than 2 tiny cartons of OJ, 2 muffins, an apple and an orange (for 2 people). We bought some Cornflakes to supplement it on the odd days we had breakfast there (there's a supermarket across the road). You can upgrade it to a buffet style breakfast for $3.99 each which is OK apart from plastic plates & cutlery (I hate plastic cutlery).
We would be happy to stay there again but if we were in block 3 I would ask for a room at the back overlooking the lake away from the go-carts. All that I-drive has to offer is only a few minutes walk away, I felt safer walking there at night than I do in my own town. I-drive does carry a lot of traffic at times but you can use Universal Boulevard which runs parallel to I-drive and crosses Carrier Drive which is where the Enclave Suites are located. You can join it from I-drive or the Beeline.
I hope this puts your mind at rest, but do bear in mind this is only our experience and we did not hear of any complaints while we were there. If you are not happy - complain.
Have been waiting patiently for your report.
Great report, just what we wanted to hear, as long as its clean we will be fine. We have just paid our balance as we head off in May and you have put our minds at rest. If its not clean we will complain as we know there are decent rooms available. Looking forward to it now. Hope you had a great time. [sporty]
