This is a good-value place given its location on I-Drive, just opposite Pointe Orlando. The standard rooms are really quite small, so if space is an issue, opt for a semi-suite. Three pools, two games rooms, and a 24-hour deli are among the on-site amenities.

Don’t expect the normal Renaissance high standard, since the 577 rooms at this hotel are more motel-like. Still, price, location, and service make it attractive.
