Travel tips
Multiple bus stops are within a few minutes' walk, including one just 217m away, making it easy to get around International Drive without renting a car. Laundry is available in the building for $2.50 per cycle, located on the 3rd and 4th floors, so pack accordingly or plan a laundry stop. Since the area is a dense restaurant and shopping hub, expect walkable dining options but budget extra time for traffic near Universal Studios and the Convention Center during peak seasons.
