Check-in was a slow process. It was supposed to be 4 PM. But it was closer to 4:45 PM but the time we got our keys. The bar staff were friendly, but a little disappointing to find out that it closes at 10 PM. There was no nowhere to get a drink or any food late night. The room was clean, room service was OK,

8/10 Very good

We stayed here because of its close proximity to universal studios and truthfully if that’s what you’re planning on doing then it’s perfect. The rooms are spacious especially if you’re traveling with a decent amount of luggage or kids. The room was clean but did smell a bit of chlorine. I never walk barefoot in hotel rooms but wouldn't on that carpet. It looks like it could use a good deep clean, however, the room/linens were clean and free of dirt and hair. It’s very easy to walk (less than 5 mins) to universal and they also have a shuttle that runs to and from park if you prefer that. There’s food on property and a store that has tons of drinks/snacks/essentials. Overall, great for a hotel close to universal that is clean. Not luxury by any means but clean and close.
