Pros: The property was relatively quiet. In the 5 nights we were there i think we only saw like 5-6 people who weren't employees, and we never really heard anyone. The pool looked decent, but unfortunately it was not 24 hours and we were never at the hotel during the time it was open in order to use it. Cons: COCKROACHES! While we were there we saw cockroaches in two different areas on the first level. One in the hall, one in the public urinal on the first floor next to the restaurant. And that one was HUGE. Then a few nights later we found a large one in our room on the second floor. Needless to say, if they're on those levels they likely have a HUGE infestation. The staff had extremely thick glass at the front desk, on top of masks they were wearing it made it almost impossible to understand and hear what they were trying to say. The fact that they had NO cleaning throughout your stay was also a bit odd. They wanted you to just put your trash out in the hallway overnight which is pretty unsanitary to say the least. We had 4 people in our room and they only provided 2 towels. When we asked for additional towels since we had more people, they gave us measly pool towels and would not give us two extra bath towels.
The hotel is run down with lack of normal cleaning, smells bad, has poor quality of beds, grayish cheap linen and towels, infested with roaches. Upon check in the first room I saw was plain dirty. The sink was not cleaned and had blood splashed. The room was not swept left alone floors cleaned. I asked for another room and the receptionist walked with me to check it out. He let me believe that I had unreasonable expectations and that he did not have anything better to offer. He gave me the key to another room though and even though the room seemed not to have blood all over the sink we saw a cockroach on the bathtub that we killed. My child freaked out and refused to use the shower. We stayed that night as I felt I could not expect anything better from that place and checked out at 8 am. I would never come close to that nasty place.
Pretty much everything was great. Only thing we didn't care for was the bed. But when your used to a waterbed it's hard to beat.
Great and affordable place to stay in Orlando. My family and enjoyed our stay here. The location is at the center of International drive!
I will never stay here again staff where rude and the place smell like cigarettes the air conditioner didn’t work properly
Light in the bathroom wasn't working until next morning. Also two iron bars were sticking out under the bed to the side of the bed easy easy to get hurt.
Front desk guys need some training for customer service. Cheap stay in Orlando. I would not go back as there are better options available on International drive.
The water wasn't hot, it got room temperature at best. The sink sprayed all over the place when turned on and the bathroom fan made a horrible noise whenever the bathroom light was on. The AC unit barely cooled the room down despite being on all the time.
Everything was great ! Except the WiFi sucked ... and the lady at the front desk with blonde hair was rude every time I talked to her
Can't beat the price for location. Being only 5 minutes from citywalk makes this my go to whenever staying in Orlando.
The only thing that I didn’t like was the water wasn’t getting hot and the light in the bathroom wasn’t really working. Beside that everything was great.
Stay there for 3 nights.The room smell so bad . I believe is mold in there too because I got sick in the first night. I will not stay there again. The beds are not comfy at all.
Check in was slow. Had to wait till four o'clock to check in
Property was perfect for our needs, game room was a blast, pool was great, staff was the best! Orbitz sucked and we will never book again through them, they didnt send the payment information to hotel causing me to wait more than an hour on hold in lobby. I will be booking with monumental again next time we are in orlando, but never with orbitz.
