I am getting ready to check out of the Courtyard Orlando Ocoee. This has been the first stay at a CY for me in a while. This property is about 15 miles north/northwest of Disney World and the tourist areas. I was able to get a platinum override for $119 with breakfast included. The platinum welcome gift is a bit bigger than at other CYs (two 25 ounce water bottles instead of 1/2 liter and half a pound of Fig Newtons versus a small bag of cookies). I almost did not get a late checkout until they noted that I am a platinum (due to large request for late checkouts today).

For me, I would happy if every CY treated platinums this way. This CY has the new layout, and it is fine for what it is. The only warning is that they have no HBO (although they have about 70 channels in total, the most I have ever seen at a limited service Marriott property).
