Ive stayed at this hotel both times when visiting florida. I love this hotel as it is great for family visitors, theres a games room for the children and a nice bar for the adults. The staff were great and I have made a couple of good friends with the staff that work their, I enjoy going back to this hotel and I still keep intouch with the staff i made friends with. The rooms were good, not a 5 star room but i wasnt really worried about that as most of the day i was out in the parks and then in the lobby when i was actually at the hotel, the room was just a place 2 sleep and get ready at the end of the day. The hotel is also in a great location, you are so close to everything you could need...you can walk to resaurants,shops,stores,and wet n wild. There is also a walmart on sand lake road which is a 2 minute drive from the hotel. I would recommend this hotel to aybody who is looking for a good family holiday in orlando.

We found our room clean and suitable for the short time we spent in it. The maid service was daily and very good. The hotel is in a good location with plenty of resturants with in walking distance. We only had one breakfast in the hotel there were better places to eat. The staff were ok and dealt with any thing we asked. There was an I trolley stop near the holiday (make sure you have the correct money as you can not travel without). We did hire a car as getting to the parks was a little difficult. Best outlet shopping is premium towards Disney and the florida Mall is great for indoor air conditioned shopping.

When we arrived we checked in fine we had a lovely pool view but the air conditioning was really loud our children slept well but me and my husband didnt.

It took a while to get use to the time limit but after a week we were fine.

The hotel had parking spaces for your car.

It was really good.

Hotel great base for a holiday in Orlando right in the centre of international drive and next to largest McDonald's.

We had been before a few years ago but this time were in different block near the I4 took a few days to get used to traffic noise at night.

Had dinner one night, buffet with carved meats, but have huge choice on doorstep Red lobster Chili's.

Breakfast was at Golden corral over the road great choice $6.99 each dont want to see another pancake for a while.
You are right near all the shopping malls the best one being Premium Outlet Mall past Sea World.

Hotel check in was quick and easy staff friendly, room clean everyday.

Just returned from the Quality inn international where we stayed for two weeks.

We had a room on the inside by the smaller of the two pools and despite the hotel being right on international drive, I4 and next to the "largest" McDonald's in the USA, we heard no noise, the space shuttle even took off while we were there and we didn't here that either.
The room was cleaned every day and we had enough of every thing and the maid even cleaned up after my daughter was sick on the bed. We found a tip of 2 dollars seemed to surface and had no problems.

We found the hotel staff very pleasant and always friendly even the security guards on the gate everyone always said hello when passing by.

As our children are only 7 and 3 we didn't sample the entertainment plus we were tired after long days in the parks.

I would definitely stay here again it was in perfect spot and near to Universal, Sea-world and Wet n Wild (free transport was available to these) and was a short drive to Disney Bout 15 minutes.

What you need to remember is that a Florida holiday is all about going to the Theme Parks. This hotel is clean and tidy, location excellent and staff great.

Arrived at the hotel and was impressed with the security.Was only allowed through once the guard confirmed our reservation.

If you have hired a car its easy to get to from Sandford airport and in a good place for getting to the parks.We were quickly checked in and pleased to find our room overlooking the gardens and found it quiet.Beware that some of the rooms overlook I4 interstate which would be constently noisey,but we were lucky.

The room was well equipted with 2 double beds(clean),iron and ironing board,hairdryer.coffee machine and t.v.Unfortunatly the rooms are very dated(Dont get me wrong...they were clean)and hated the fact there was carpet on the floor.

The free safe was a bit dodgey looking but we took our chance and it was secure enough.Dont forget to leave a tip for the maid each day and she will give you extra towels and coffee!(We always left 2 dollars).

Didnt like the fact there was no balcony.Window didnt open either so room can feel a bit clostraphobic.The shop on site is expensive compared to off site shops.Games room is rubbish(as quoted by my 10yr old)as games are old.

The on site bar is also rubbish.
No atmoshere and staff unfriendly.The on site restaraunt was ok but again more expensive than other all you can eat buffets.Loved the swimming pools being open till 10 at night and having 2 pools we never found them crowded.Only a couple of parasols though so shade was impossible.

To sum up this hotel it is in a ideal position for the all the parks. If you just want to be out of the hotel all day and use it to sleep in then its good value for money.But there is nothing in the way of entertainment day or night and if you get a day where it rains all day heavly (so going out an about is impossible) you may find yourself stuck in a drab and dreary motel room watching Judge Judy or disney channel all day!

I wouldnt go back to this hotel or I-Drive just because of the fact there is much nicer areas in Orlando and even nicer areas in the rest of Florida.But please dont worry if you have booked this hotel.

If all you need it for is a base for the parks its fine.

The Quality Inn International provided us with an inexpensive base for a 2 week holiday in Orlando. Upon arrival at the hotel, we were checked in within 5 minutes, despite their being more than 20 people arriving at the same time as us. We were quickly provided with our room keys and pointed in the right direction.

We were allocated room 379, which was on the lower floor facing the pool/gardens, which was pleasant. We were fairly close to International Drive itself, and were initially concerned there could be traffic noise, however, this was not the case at all, once in the room, we did not experience any noise issues at all, not even from the neighbours on either side with their children!

The room itself was large, clean and provided us with everything we needed for our 2 week stay. There was an iron, ironing board, microwave, large fridge with small freezer compartment and also a coffee machine (which we never used). The rooms were cleaned daily to a good standard, always with plenty of clean towels left for you. The air conditioning unit in the room was a welcome relief from the very hot weather, albeit it could get a little noisy if left on the highest setting for cool air, but it did not prevent us from sleeping in any way. There were no issues with bugs in the hotel room or grounds.

We ate in the hotel restaurant once for convenience, and it was fine, $11 dollars for "eat all you can" buffet - but not as much variety and quality as the other restaurants on International Drive. Plenty of families chose to eat at the hotel though as they provided a pay for 2 adults, get 3 children free package, which I guess is a tempting offer for those with children to keep costs down.

The location of the hotel was perfect for what we were looking for - 20 mins to Disney, 5 mins to Universal and 10 mins to Sea World. All of the major shopping malls were no more than 20 mins away. We took a no driving option, so relied on local transport and taxis to get around, which was fine. This hotel does provide shuttle transfers free of charge only to Sea World and Universal, however, they get booked up very quickly and run at the most bizarre times. You are also having to stay at the park until late PM if you use these shuttles. The shuttle to Disney from the hotel was $14 return per person per trip. There is a much cheaper alternative than this, which I will list under the resort review for those of you not driving and looking to save some dollars.

I have rated the hotel staff "4" as we never experienced any issues - they were polite and courteous when we interacted with them.

Entertainment we have rated as "1" as we did not see any. There was a small arcade with games for the children. On the very infrequent times when it rained, most people took to their rooms for a nap. If we were to return to Florida again we would stay at this hotel again, for the price it met our needs perfectly

The hotel is in a great position for easy access to the amenities on I-Drive.

It was clean and the room was cleaned every day.
We received a voucher on arrival from the on site Virgin Rep for some free meals in the hotel. We used these and the food was fine, although not in the same league as some of the other buffet places we visited.

The 'Topsy Turvy' bar sold pizza's in the evenings, which were rather good though.

We had no problems with the hotel staff during the stay.
The entertainment was poor. The bar was small and the live acts were not great, although some made an effort with the children.

The pool areas were clean and never crowded and the staff were very vigilant when a storm threatened and they told everyone to vacate the pool.

The pool was still being heated until almost the end of our holiday, which was lovely - like a warm bath!
All in all this is a great base for a holiday, not ultra modern but certainly more than adequate.

Best thing about this hotel is it's location, right on the centre of I-drive next to the I trolley stop 22. I went with Virgin holidays and they have an on-site help desk/rep service open 8-9am and 4-7pm 7 days a week which was great for advice.

Rooms are large, have all things you will need, if you prefer tea to coffee though you will need teabags as they only provide coffee in the rooms (PG tips are on sale in the shop at the hotel though!). Only one complaint is that the water in the shower wasn't always as hot as I'd like it in the mornings, this said on the day we left at 6am it was fine! The hotel is quite old looking from the outside but the rooms are up to date and they had all the facilities we needed, including a free bus to Universal Studios and a bar open until 2am!

Only had breakfast in the hotel 2 mornings during our fortnight, good selection, buffet style. Both 2 Pools were heated, so much so that there was steam coming off them, so even though the weather was not brilliant there were people swimming every day until 10pm.

Most reviews covered all room facilities, we only watched the TV to check the weather as they have a 24 hour weather channel which gives you local weather every 15 minutes which is great for planning your activities.

The taxi drivers and I-trolley drivers refer to this hotel as the "Low Q" - never quite found out what this meant though!
