I-Drive Hotel at Universal

Outdated, holes in the walls and floor. Bathtub leaks and bed frame extended mattress, which was a safety hazard.

The whole place was falling apart. Had to change rooms 6 times. If it was refundable we would have moved hotels but we were forced to stay unless we wanted to lose out on the money we paid.

No lo recomiendo tanto porque la habitación que me tocó no estaba en buenas condiciones no tome fotos por respeto pero no tiene buenas condiciones

Excelente servicio y el personal muy atento y amable. Muy buena ubicación.

The rug felt sticky and dingy. It smelled like cigarette smoke and the bathroom was horrible. Holes in the wall and there was ROACHES!!!! I took a picture of the roach and the bathroom if needed. I stayed there twice and I will NEVER again. I wish I can get my money back. It was horrible but I had no other option.

The hotel was a clean affordable place to stay with the family while visiting Orlando. The hot breakfast was great; my kids really enjoyed it. The pool looked nice, but we didn’t get to use it because of late nights at amusement parks. Beds were comfortable. The staff was friendly. We will definitely stay here again on future trips to Orlando. I do have one complaint. We had a very hard time locating the hotel. We drove back and forth about 4 or 5 times on international drive at midnight after leaving Disney trying to find it using navigation. The hotel appears to formerly be a “Comfort Inn” and is now called “I drive”. There is no sign in the front of the hotel and the signs at the road say “comfort inn.” It is located behind “Mangoes”, not actually on the road front. We stopped at another hotel asking where this hotel was located and they had never heard of it before. We called the front desk receptionist and they gave us the address, which I already had, so it wasn’t helpful because there is no sign and the hotel is located in the back parking lot of Mangoes. We finally found it based on the exterior photo of the hotel, but still weren’t sure until we went inside the lobby because there are no “I drive hotel” signs anywhere. That part was a little stressful after 12 hours of being on our feet at Disney, we were ready to shower and sleep, not drive around trying to locate the place. Everything was great about our stay, other than initially finding it.

Breakfast is amazing. Kids love the breakfast

Breakfast was delicios and fresh every morning. Walking distance to all the shops and restaurants on International Drive. Price was ridiculously Low. Free parking- trust me, not all hotels include it. Cons, repairs were been done in the room below us during am hours so sleeping in was horrible. A bit of noise on highway construction but that was not their fault. Do not disturb sign on door and still someone open the door and walked in to verify the fire alarm 😑 🙄. Besides that it was perfect location at a great price. I will definitely come back an stay here.

Only issues were out shower leaked all night, and that was kind of annoying to hear and the parking was insane and ridiculous due to the world cup / Knicks game and people taking all the hotel parking and not being guests. BUT we will be back! Because this place was great still :)

I was very disappointed with the condition of this room. There was a strong musty odor throughout the room, and visible mold on the bathroom wall. These conditions made the room uncomfortable and raised serious concerns about cleanliness, maintenance, and guest health. This is not the standard I expected when booking through Expedia. I hope the hotel takes immediate action to correct these issues and improve the quality of its accommodations.

Room was okay staff was helpful

Todo estuvo súper bien, el personal y la mejor ubicación.

Matt the front desk clerk was the sweetest person, especially after having to change my room 3 times. I understand the hotel was under construction. The first room the key didn’t work. Second room it smelled like cigarettes, the room was dirty, and I started coughing like crazy due to the smell.( I was also on the phone with Expedia and I mention it to the customer service rep) Third room was ok, but I had to sleep with the ironing board holding the door because I didn’t feel safe, the bathroom mirror had writing on the mirror, and being next to the elevators every time the elevator would get called I would hear it in the room allllll night long. At 4am I booked another hotel. And left at 10 am the next morning .

So glad we were only here to sleep and leave early the next morning.

Buenas, empiezo este review destacando el trato del personal amable que nos atendio a mi y a mi familia y sobre todo el desayuno espectacular que sirven, con una ubicacion super conveniente a pasos de muchos restaurantes, sitios de comida y cerca de icon park definitivamente vuelvo a hospedarme aqui.

Its very convenient to get around i drive

Todo súper y céntrico

👍

The lobby, cafeteria was super clean. Breakfast was delicious lots of options. The building is going on the renovations...needs TLC. room and bed was comfortable

This International Drive hotel has no signs on the building—you just drive up and hope for the best. I paid $51/night from Friday to Tuesday (4 nights), but sneaky resort fees brought the bill to almost $400. There is a $100 refundable deposit. The front desk clerk was great—super nice and looked like a goth version of Bernadette from The Big Bang Theory. Only one elevator worked for this 6-story building, causing 2-minute waits. The room had a mini-fridge but no microwave or ice bucket. The top sheet had a stain, so I just took it off. The best part was a massive Samsung TV, perfect for my USB-C to HDMI video-out Samsung Dex, though the TV system annoyingly blocks the channel numbers when switching and has no scrolling guide. The hot water takes a few minutes to heat up, and the shower lever blasted me with cold water because it was left "up". For ice, floor machines are broken; only the one by the pool works, pool closed no ice. The Wi-Fi needs an IT tech—the ceiling access points are too close together, dropping your video connection when you walk. Use a VPN here. Parking was fine, just use the windshield pass so you don't get towed. Breakfast (6:30–9:30 AM) has eggs, DIY waffles, and meats, though the bacon and sausage felt undercooked. The room only fits 40 ish people, so go early. Location is awesome—1 mile from ICON Park, quiet despite the freeway ramp, and highly walkable to fast food and nice restaurants.
