Disappointing Stay – Not Worth the Money
I was very let down by my stay at the Monumental Hotel in Orlando. From the moment we arrived, the entire property had a strong, unpleasant odor. The air conditioning wasn’t working in the common areas, making it uncomfortable to even walk through the lobby or halls.
The gym was tiny, outdated, and not air-conditioned — completely unusable in the Florida heat. One of the main reasons I booked this hotel was the on-site restaurant they advertised, only to find out it had been closed for over a month, with no notice given.
The photos online are extremely misleading. What looks like a clean, well-maintained hotel is actually full of sticky surfaces, foul-smelling water, and an overall run-down vibe.
The most frustrating part? For just $5 more per night, I could’ve booked a stay at a much classier, better-maintained hotel nearby. Definitely not worth the price or the hassle.
