safe hotel - good value

I was satisfied overall with the Ramada. Room was ok - nothing special, but it was clean. Actually, we could smell the cleaner that was used in the room, which was a bit annoying at first but i got used to it. Not really any extras at this hotel - no shuttle to the parks. They did, however, allow us free access to the ymca so we were able to use the inside pool and gym. People at the front desk were friendly. Location was convenient and in a better section of town. I felt relatively safe at this hotel.

A pleasant stay

I have been to almost every hotel in this area and anyones whose ever been to Orlando knows thats a lot of hotels. Pricing and amenities are all similiar, but I believe the Ramada has found a way to stand out. The first impression you get at these hotels is always the desk clerk. Ramada has the nicest people who actually seem to care if you are comfortable. I wish I could say that about the others. I would recommend this hotel based on that alone, but it also provides a good value for the money. It's located perfectly if you do not have a car and it's clean. What more could you ask for.

Great place to stay

This hotel was very clean and affordable the staff was great. My only complaint was that when we went to check in we had two dogs and we where told that the hotel did not alow dogs. We booked this hotel under dog friendly hotel section. The staff was great and helped us out and let us stay.

Easy Access

This Hotel has a friendly staff, the room upkeep was a little lacking for resupplying the coffee towels. there is easy access to all the major attractions as well as local spots.

My review of Ramada Convention Center I-Drive Orlando

The hotel was good except for a poor experience in the dining area for breakfast. It was not large enough for the number of guests. Also, on the weekend, there was not enough staff manning the area and keeping it filled.

Small Simple and economical

The room was small. I was located on the first floor and the noise was horrible. The hotel needs to be maintained better and needs renovations. The people at the front desk was nice. The free breakfast was great. The only problem was the room. If the room was bigger and had less noise and was newer It would be great. But the price is hard to beat and the location was great. I would stay there if I was single and just needed a bed to sleep on.
