DOLPHIN RESORT - OUTDATED

cody (Boston,ma) on Dec 06, 2024

Well first off let me start off with a **NEWS ALERT ** Dolphin DOES NOT DROP YOU OFF AT MK,EPCOT,DISNEY SPRINGS,HOLLYWOOD STUDIOS entrances. MK drop off is at the transportation center where you get off and jump on the ferry or monorail. It DOES NOT drop you off at the entrance of MK. Nobody talks about this at the hotel. It's even worse when you leave the park unless your smart and jump on the boardwalk bus and take that back to the resort. Overall the hotel is so outdated the carpets in the hallways are gross looking and worn out. The bathrooms are small. The bathroom doors should be at the entrance of the bathroom with the sink not inside where the shower is no room to move around at all. And the thermostat that shutoff in the middle of the night but turned on in the morning BS. Then the kicker you pay 45 for a resort fee and I got a package delivered I had to go pick it up at the business center they charged me 5 dollars to get it. Are you kidding me Dolphin ! 17 dollar milkshakes at Fountain ! Pizza at the FUEL sucks ! Don't buy it at all ! 5.50 for 20oz soda. Come on people stop the highway robbery BS. The location though perfect for walk/boat to epcot and HS. But other than location I'd stay somewhere else next time for more money. You pay all that money and they drop you off at the spot where people park their cars. Ya I'm good Any questions please feel free to ask

Great Place to Stay when going to DisneyLand

AUSinMEX (Torreon, Mexico) on Nov 26, 2024

Stayed here to take the kids to Disney Land. The hotel lobby and convenience store downstairs were great. The rooms were clean, and it was great to be able to watch the fireworks from our room. It was very easy to get to all the resorts from the hotel. We spent a bit, but the kids had an awesome time. Staff were freindly and willing to help out when needed.
