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.

Amazing service and great value.
My husband and I stayed here for our honeymoon from October 12th-21st. It was a very nice stay. It was a bit eerie at times because it was rather quiet and not a lot of people seemed to be there. But, for the price and if you want a relaxing stay, it definitely did it's job. It was going through construction/renovation at the time and so elevators and certain rooms were out of service, but that didn't ruin our experience. The hotel is located in a quiet area, away from major businesses. There was a CVS and 7-11 down the road. And not too much further was a Walgreens and Wawa. The drive to the parks and other tourist attractions was not much of a hassle and it was about 15-20 minutes drive. (Although, the drivers in Orlando can be a pain in the butt.) The rooms were basic but very nice. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom roomy. There was a mini-fridge provided which was nice to store leftovers. Now, we stayed in two rooms. Our original room was located on the bottom level. We did have problems with the water taking some time to heat up, it took about 10 minutes to get past lukewarm. We also had a bit of a problem with temperate regulation (but I am quite picky and get cold easily, while my husband gets warm.) About three days into our stay we had a large ant problem. Someone had left candy underneath the couch in our room and they are swarmed it. We had all of our clothes in this corner and upon exiting the shower and trying to get dressed they fell all over my feet and were rather angry to say the least. We informed the front desk and they came to investigate the situation. We were immediately given a new room on the second floor. The receptionist and a guy from housekeeping helped us gather our things quickly and took them up to the other room. We were then given money to do our laundry. The receptionist (I wish I could remember her name, she was such a dear) even helped us shake out our clothes to get as many ants off as possible before washing them. Had it not been for the immediate service and amazing help I would not have been quite as please. We are fairly laid back though so I still would recommend them. I also spoke to the manager who did refund us for half our day because we had to spend it doing laundry rather than spending it at the parks. Our second room had no problem with the water heating up, so it seems to depend on each individual room. The temperature seemed to work fine for this room as well. The pool seemed to be really nice. We took advantage of the hot tub after our long days at the parks. It was quiet and we had it to ourselves. Very relaxing. Based on other reviews I was a bit nervous mostly for the water and the lack of people. The walk to and from the parking lot didn't phase me. Exercise is good. :) I had a very nice experience and would definitely return.
