Impression for the price!

I stayed at this hotel because of a trade show I was attending for the price I couldn't have ask for anything better the room was always stocked with clean towels and the beds were always made after we walked in from working all day. Definitely would stay there again when working another trade show in Orlando!

The communal areas need to be cleaned

I checked out at almost midnight on weekend, bcause there were too many guests willing to checked-in on the same time, it was too much for 1 front desk staff. So there was a line at the lobby similar to a line for a ride in Disneyworld. When I got the room key, the key didnt work so I have to gine back again to the lobby and the staff gave me new room.

It is in a great location where all the things/ restaurants/ nightlife/ attractions of Orlando's international drive is at. It does cheaper than the other hotels in the same area.

Cheap sleep

If you can make fun of yourself for being cheap...

We said "just need somewhere to sleep"...we got what we asked for. Last minute trip to universal and just wanted a close place to crash that wouldn't break the bank. We enjoyed making fun of the place as we switched rooms four times at 3am to find one with a working fridge and air conditioner. Place obviously needs some money put into it but for $32 a night...how much can you complain?!? Warning - the signs that say they proudly serve Starbucks in "hotel lobby" do not mean this hotel...have to walk to another hotels lobby. Also, when they tell you 5th floor is the only ice machine that works...it doesn't, don't walk all the way across the hotel at 4am for an ice machine that doesn't work.

Nightmare

One of the worst experiences I have ever had. The hotel needs a lot of maintainance. The light switch next to the door was not working and I had to use the light of the cell phone to find another one. The staff at the lobby was having hard time dealing with all the complaints they were receiving. There is no free internet in rooms and the printer in the lobby was not working.

Orlando Metropolitan Resort

The hotel is very close to good restaurants and bars. The Hotel is big, but needs some upgrades to the elevators and hallways. The rooms are good and comfortable with all basic amenities. Staff is just about average. But its definitely value for money.

Group getaway

Brilliant location on I-Drive - right outside a trolley stop. We got a great deal on this hotel and I could not fault it. The rooms were spacious and very clean with a big comfy bed. There was also tea/coffee facilities available in the room with a large refrigerator and a microwave which was very helpful. Did not have much interaction with the staff but when we were looking for directions, they were very helpful. I will be staying there again
