Hotel was clean and well kept. Elevator was out of service but the receptionist did offer to refund my stay if I didn’t want to stay because of the inconvenience. Cute lobby with a friendly bar tender. Cleaning staff was very friendly. I would recommend as this hotel was very close to Universal Studios.

The staff were all very friendly and helpful. They waived fees during some construction with the elevator down. They worked quickly to get us checked in and early to help accommodate our plans at Universal for the day. The shower in our room was amazing!!! 2 shower heads!!! Such a spa experience especially after being at Universal all day! Will definitely stay here again. The room and property was clean and well maintained. The air conditioner was perfect during the hot weather. Love the little market shop they have!

Absolutely beautiful property, friendly staff clean room was amazing very close to universal, which was nice. The only suggestion that I would have is we were in a handicap accessible room with a shower that you could wheel a wheelchair in. It would’ve been nice to have like a squeegee because the water pulled in front of the toilet and we had to use towels to wipe it up, but besides that everything was amazing definitely will be staying here again if I come back this way.

The hotel is a great place to stay for a visit to Universal Studios. I would recommend walking to the park instead of waiting for the shuttle. It's not a long walk and is less crowded. The room was clean and the lobby market has a decent selection of snacks. However, our room smelled overwhelmingly of bleach and the AC was too loud. Also, the elevator was almost always out of order during the four days that we were there. The parking is convenient and covered. It is a good value for the price

They are still under construction and what they have finished wasn't done correctly. The staff was great and accommodating however it does not make up to the price is paid. Universal studios and city walk are close its like a 10 dollar lyft depending on the time you go and leave.

The hotel was nice enough, but not what I expected for the price but in the right location the pool was in the garage in the back and he had to have someone unlock the door. It was kind of odd we didn’t want to use it with the kids also, the room was nice enough. I’d like the size we had a little deck in the back but the bathroom smelled a little musty, but other than that, everything was good.
