We stayed for a few nights in August (after seeing great recommendations on here)and for the money it’s fine. We didn’t really rate the pointe area as everything was always empty and if we chose international drive again would choose somewhere nearer the icon 360.
The hotel is clean and the staff all friendly. The buffet breakfast which is around $15 but we got a buy one get one free card was pretty poor. The pool area was pleasant but smaller than I thought - they also had a spa pool set at 40degC which is very unpleasant when the weather is mid 30s.

It’s a nice enough hotel, geared towards convention guests so during the day it’s lovely and quiet it’s also in a great location on idrive

I was going to book Rosen Inn at Pointe as we're looking to keep within a certain budget, but I'm tempted to stretch it a little to the Plaza as everyone has such good things to say about it.

I have stayed at both, the Plaza is much nicer but it depends on what the price difference was as to whether I would upgrade. Pointe is fine if you can get it at the right price.

At the moment it's only £100 difference for the Plaza for 16 nights. I just need to book!

We were booked to stay for 4 weeks this December but I changed it last week to LBV which we do prefer,I was a bit put off by people posting elsewhere that guests from Rosen Pointe and International come to use the Plaza pool.

Just waiting for our return flight and then we'll book with Virgin Holidays, £56 per night. Only slightly more than Rosen at Pointe.

Did this last time and had a Disney on-site stay first.
We stayed at Rosen Inn at Pointe before but prefer the Plaza as it's internal corridors.

Then book it, in fact you'll make that money back with the money off voucher they give you

It’s my favourite hotel on Int Drive and in a great location.
I do like it - there is a conference there most October's that I tend to go to, it's always an agreeable stay (give or take sharing the hotel with hundreds of people like me)
