This hotel is right on Orlando Avenue, north of town in the Winter Park neighborhood - super convenient in my case as I had business in the area. Right across the street is a very nice restaurant called Hillstone. The hotel is laid out in typical roadside motel-style from the old days and has plenty of (free!) parking. Also free is the Wi-Fi. The rooms all open to an open hallway, or an inner courtyard with a pool, and are decked out with standard stuff. The bed was OK, although the lumpy pillows were substandard. There is a bar/restaurant with live music in the evening that seems popular with the locals of the more mature contingent. All in all it's a very pleasant place, nothing wrong with it, but also you must realize it's not a super deluxe place. If you want those, go downtown and pay through the nose for parking, WiFi, etc. So that's why I choose Mt. Vernon Inn, and will keep coming back.
