Sad to say, but our first stay as a couple was at the Residence Inn at Lake Cecile. It's no longer there - abandoned sadly, as it is a lovely location in Kissimmee off of 192. We could afford it as $59 a night for a studio with full kitchen, and free breakfast. We were young and not married yet. That was actually a super fun trip, and his first vacation of his life!
Flash forward to the next year, and for our honeymoon we planned Disney again. We were still on a budget, and I was clueless on hotels. We rented a car and had booked a good deal at the Hyatt Regency Grand Cypress. Me, thinking ohhhh fancy hotel. WRONG! The staff was so awful. Rude. Nasty. After two nights, I said to my DH let's check out what a Disney hotel is like, I heard about this "grand floridian" place. We showed up there, asked to see a room, and then they told us their "walk in" rate. Next morning at 9am, we checked in there and finally enjoyed a few days of our honeymoon! It was so wonderful!
Oh, and as we were checking out of the Hyatt Regency, and the valet pulled our car around, I told him or others (I forget) that I was so disappointed in our stay that we were leaving early, it was our honeymoon and no one cared. The response was oh yeah whatever.
Literally the second night I was in tears they were so awful!
The GF was so awesome! Every morning we ordered a pot of coffee from room service (this was prior to having coffee makers in hotel rooms). The delivery person would set up our little table and chairs with a cloth, hand me the paper, and then pour me coffee in bed, and give it to me. I'm in my robe and relaxing, and he's like, "Here is your coffee, Mrs. H". Oh my it was over the top, and I would tell me DH this coffee was worth $15! It was just Ah Maze Ing.
No clue why I had picked the Hyatt Regency Grand Cypress. It's a business hotel. UGH!
