Beautiful pool, but room was less than desired

When we first went in our room, it smelled bad. We went back to the front desk and said we required a new room or would leave. They were very kind and provided us a suite which was in nice shape, but would be compared to a general room to other hotels. Even the carpet in the suite was stained, and the shower had little to no hot water. The one positive I had for this hotel was that the pool was beautiful except that the hot tub was out of order. There was also no free breakfast which would would expect at a hotel like this.

Beautiful and Quiet Gem

The place was beautiful and well maintained. The staff was friendly and very responsive. They worked diligently on grounds-keeping and maintenance each day. Our pool was very nice and quiet. We had family at two other resorts, and they all liked this pool the best. We highly recommend this beautiful and quiet gem to anyone.

Great hotel

We have been going to Florida for many years now and this is the best hotel we have stayed at by far. The room was clean and comfortable and attended to everyday of our stay. The pool area was well looked after and there are many other facilities to take advantage of. All staff were extremely helpful and all lifts to floors and rooms were very accessible. This is where wil be staying in future. This hotel is situated on a quieter part of international drive but very near sea world, perfect.

At The Monumental

This unit does not feel like a hotel. It is quiet and feels more like a condominium building. The staff is great, very friendly and professional. The bed is comfortable and the TV is new and flat style. Their breakfast specials at $5.99 are a good value. We've stayed here about four times and all our stays have been good.
