We study the two dimensional interacting monomers model which has two symmetric absorbing states and exhibits two kinds of phase transitions; one is an order-disorder transition and the other is an absorbing phase transition. Our focus is around the order-disorder transition and we investigate if this transition is described by the critical exponents of the two dimensional Ising model. By analyzing the relaxation dynamics of `staggered magnetization', the finite size scaling, and the behavior of the magnetization in the presence of a symmetry breaking field, we show that this model should belong to the Ising universality class. Our results along with the universality hypothesis support that the order-disorder transition in two dimensional models with two symmetric absorbing states is of the Ising universality class, contrary to the recent claim [K. Nam et al., J. Stat. Mech.:Theory Exp. {\bf (2011)} L06001]. Furthermore, we illustrate that the Binder cumulant could be a misleading guide to the critical point in these systems.
