Ok if you just want to crash for the night. The room and hallway carpet is very old. The beds were old with saggy mattresses.

One Day Stay at the Floridian
Staff were accommodating. Since it was Christmas, staffing was minimal. Had to go to front desk for extra towels and pillows. Room was large. Old TV, some light bulbs out, continental breakfast served from 6am to 9am. Coffee available at all times. Coffee maker in room, no creamer packs, no refrigerator in room. Our stay was for only one night and main purpose was for the family of four to sleep and shower. For that, it served its purpose at a reasonable rate. I would go back if the rates were competitive.

Not too impressed.
The front desk would not answer when called. The beds were uncomfortable and they only had sheets, no comforter. The elevator was not working and the side exit was blocked off to prevent you from exiting or entering near the stairs.

The Floridian
The room had signs of mice, i.e., droppings and the wood trim had been chewed on. Very few of the staff spoke English. Out of the nine days/nights we stayed, there were only two employees who were polite. During a 2:00 a.m. fire alarm, a wheel chair bound patron (who claims she requested first floor) was told by a staff member that it was not his problem that she was in a wheel chair and not able to use the elevator and ran past everyone else to get outside. Extremely horrible! I would not recommend this place to anyone! The only good thing was the hotel location. Very accessible to every attraction in the Orlando area.

ROACHES
We found a roach in the bathroom during the daytime so you can imagine how many may lurk behind the walls and then we were talking to other guests and they said that same thing. The employees were nice but the ROACHES gotta go.
