sarah0403 Posted April 18, 2009 Report Share Posted April 18, 2009 Ok, I was ready for a battle, actually I really thought I was going to get the Sheraton and perhaps had to go a bit higher. Funny thing is their rates are higher than the Sheraton! I did not see this hotel on the Priceline list.I started with the one bid $41wonCheck-In Date: Sunday, April 19, 2009Check-Out Date: Monday, April 20, 2009Number of Rooms: 1 Number of Nights: 1 Room Subtotal: $41.00 (USD) Taxes and Fees: $12.64 (USD) Total Room Cost: $53.64 (USD) Even comes with free breakfast. Awesome. Joe Cocker is playing right around the corner that night....no driving!!! Parking is $12..but we will be pulling up on our motorcycle. another $12 savings..unless they want to valet the harley. I used this PRICELINE link by the way too. Thanks! Link to comment

sarah0403 Posted April 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2009 Embassy was ok. very nice pool area, but although says heated was too cold to swim (april 19) no jacuzzi. breakfast was pretty good, full hot buffet. free cocktails and drinks from 530 -730. the room was clean, nothing to write home about though. atrium was very beautiful. we parked on the street. free parking all day sunday. put 2 dollars in the meter monday morning at 8 am...checked out by 10 so we saved $16 parking fee. lake eola park was very beautiful, right around the corner. you can"t go wrong with the marriott....good for you that's still an awesome deal right downtown!! i also seen Restaurant.com has a very decent rest's in there. Embassy, in my opinion is a solid *3. i ask for a nice view, but had a view of a roof..probably cuz i booked with priceline..but thats ok..it was worth it. Link to comment
