Hi we are from England.

Stayed at the Holiday Inn I-drive a few years ago, it is a good hotel and very near Universal, I would say that apart from the Rosen Center and Clarion (both south I-drive) - it is the nicest we have stayed in in that area.

Rosen/Clarion are very nice, but more expensive - the HI is good though and has quality restaurants/nice rooms and a very good oversized pool.
Good Luck.

We have stayed at the Fairfield Inn on Canada Drive and would stay there again. It was very clean, the beds were good, the staff was friendly and helpful and the complimentary breakfast was good.

I have been inside the Sleep Inn on Major Blvd (although we didn't stay there) but based on the public areas it seemed clean and well maintained also.
