The rooms are much smaller than appear in the photos, but this is a great size for the business person or a couple. Does not seem condusive to families. This is a self-service hotel with no restaurant but the location is convenient. All the rooms are the same small size and just vary with a king or two doubles, but all are equipped with a pullout. With a desk area, and a great service area with sink and fridge, there is not much more room if the pullout is open. The room was clean, the mattress comfortable, more than enough pillows. Barely-there closet but there are three large drawers by the bathroom area. Air-conditioner sounds as if it's on the runway ready for take-off. The sound of doors banging in the hallways, and kids running up and down indicated that there was just no room for them in the rooms. I had no in-room lock box so I had to trek to the front desk twice daily to get to my box. Decent fitness room with cardio equipment. The pool area is small where not too many kids can hang out, and it gets very loud since it faces Universal Drive. Service varied - every single morning I had to ask for towels both in the fitness room and the pool area. The continental breakfast area layout is bizarre in that it does not work for the number of guests as self-serve, and it's small counter areas mean the staff must work quickly to replenish regularly. No phone book in the room, so I had to phone the front desk to get me a local number - it took them 15 minutes and three additional calls from me to get me a simple phone number. Most of the front desk was friendly and helpful. All in all, it's a pretty decent hotel and good location for the business traveler, but don't forget the earplugs.

We were very pleased with the Hyatt Place on International Drive. The living room area and bedroom area were as advertised on the internet. The sink is open to the room, with the toilet and tub behind the bathroom door. The bathroom itself was a little small, but not a problem for the 2 of us.
Continental breakfast buffet in the morning is nothing fancy, but adequate for our needs. Breakfast consisted of coffee, tea, juice, toast, bagels, cereal, yogurt and fruit. If you want hot breakfast, that is an option for additioinal charge. We didn't do hot breakfast since we knew we'd have plenty to eat for lunch and dinner.
The hotel is a few miles from Universal Studios and Sea World. Disney is a little further away, but still pretty close. We drove to Universal a few days for both parks and CityWalk restaurants. Also, if you don't want to drive, being on I-Drive, you can walk to dinner, shops, mini-golf, etc. (many choices for each) without the trouble of driving and parking.

Stayed here for a week for a Microsoft conference. The staff were very friendly and helped as much as they could. Pool isn't too bad but a little small and not the perfect place for catching the sun after 3-4pm. The only things we didn't like was there was no bar and the breakfast was just cereal/toast. The room was great though and the TV was huge which was great for watching the Euro 2008 footy games! Overall a good experience and right near Pointe Orlando and various restaurants and bars on i-drive.

Stayed one night in May 2008 before we checked into Disney. The Hyatt Place has the feel of a business class hotel - our room had two beds and a sofa (suite) it also had a large flat panel tv and small fridge. Booked the room through hotwire. Only negative were the limited breakfast options (bagels, oatmeal and cereal) - they have a kitchen and you can order (extra cost) a warm breakfast (eggs, pancakes, etc). Overall excellent value. Hotel pool was heated and nicely maintained.
