This hotel was extremely well maintained. The service at the front deck was very welcoming. The room was very clean and comfortable. It is across from Universal Studios. My only complaint would be the $33 charge for parking. It seems that all the Orlando hotels are doing this. If I’m staying in your hotel, parking should be complementary.

Doubletree Universal
The stay was ok. We were going to sit in the bar, order a drink and watch a UF gymnastics meet which only last about l-1.5 hrs. There were few people in the bar at the time and we were sitting at the outside table almost in the lobby area. We were told we could sit there unless we ordered. I explained we were going to order a drink and watch the match then possibly order food. She told us we were taking up a table and we couldn’t do that. The TV in our room was not very clear. Older TV that needed updating. I’ve never had that happen. Maybe she was tired of tourist, but I’m a native Floridian and tourism is most of our economy. I’m always stay at Hilton Hotels but some employees need orientation on hospitality. The clerk that checked us in couldn’t have been nicer or more accommodating. Everyone one we spoke to was very polite. I gotta say, I’ve never been kicked out of the bar before. This hotel needs updating.

This hotel charges $33 per day to park your vehicle but advertises "self parking" vs valet. They also will charge you an additional $50 if you arrive just 2 hours earlier than the 4pm check in time. As we were charged the $50, we get to our room and room service comes in acting like the room had not been cleaned or serviced but it appeared clean, we just had to ask for towels. However, the room was very comfortable, the staff was nice, and it is in a great location. I would just have preferred to stay somewhere that offered free parking or at least advertised they required $33 a day and didn't make such a huge deal about early check in.

The stay was great. The only issue I encountered is that the property advertises early admission to Universal Studios. What isn't transparent is that you have to book the stay through the park to get it. That should be included as we found out too late that we didn't have early admission.
