Disney and Universal fan
It should not be classified as 3 stars
This hotel is completely average, and it should be under the 2 stars category. For starters, it lacked simple, basic stuff in the room, like an iron, ironing board, simple toiletries. I called the front desk asking for an iron and the ironing board, they could only find an iron and I was told I had to go pick it up at the front desk because the person couldn't leave. Oh, and the breakfast sucks!

Dining tip:
Short drive from hotel
If you are staying in this hotel and going to the parks, I totally reccommend you get a decent breakfast that can hold you up somewhere else, like Ponderosa or Denny's, which are both very close on International Drive.

Location, Location, Location!
This hotel was conveniently located a block away from International Drive, with access to the I-Ride Trolley and a shuttle to Universal Studios. Close to several food options and free parking also made it very convenient.

Good for sleeping
The location is good. It is off the busy main drag but still well within walking distance or easy driving distance to Disney and Universal. The rooms reminded me of a hospital room, clean but sterile. Good value if you are traveling with a family, but don't expect anything special. This is a bare bones hotel.

Clean, affordable and close to International Dr, but ...
The Floridian is a good definition of travelling on a budget. It is clean, close to some attractions and restaurants, but: - Carpeting already shows signs of heavy use - No refrigerator in the room - Breakfast area is unbelievable small for intended use. In fact is improvised in an area between front desk and pool door. Good juices and coffee, but poor carbos (pankakes, bread, donuts). Expect to wait a long time for a seat in the morning. - Be sure to reserve a non-smoking room before showing up. We did not take this precaution and were assigned to a bad smelling room. Staff tryied their best, but actually they had no other room available. - Expect to pay an additional US$4.50 fee at check in. On the other hand: - Rooms are spacious and clean - Staff is very attentious - Price is reasonable - 3 blocks from International Drive. - Restaurants within a walking distance -

Hot Breakfast Lover
Disagree with other reviewers
The breakfast was continental - not hot or good - ended up passing on breakfast after the first disappointment. I had flyers stuck under my door nightly for local pizza places. - not sure if the motel allowed this but it was annoying. One day housekeeping put a "new" comforter on my bed that had a hole in it the size of a basketball.
