Arriving there the staff was Not very welcoming, Not very social. I got a two queen bed suit and didn't have the 2 TVs That it said it would have. The water in the indoor pool was very cool, my son couldn't even get in to injoy him self. The Is couch in the room was dirty, Stain, broken and Itchy. The only good thing about my stay there was the bar lounge, the bartender "G" great guy. Very good customer service and friendly. Other than that the BLVD hotel needs a lot of improvement.
It was good just the fact that the parking its not included, and has a strong odor in the hallways I thing comes from the carpet.

We arrived late at night, and unfortunately, the check-in process took over an hour. The hallways had an unpleasant odor, and we struggled to figure out how to operate the shower—eventually needing staff assistance because the room phone didn’t work. The hotel keys repeatedly malfunctioned, and the Wi-Fi was extremely slow and unreliable.
To make matters worse, the bed was uneven and uncomfortable, and the pillows were lumpy, making it difficult to get a good night’s rest. Overall, this was a very disappointing experience, and I would not stay at this hotel again!
The location could not be better to go to Universal but that’s really the only thing that was amazing about this hotel. The shower was wonky and I had to have the desk attendant show me how to use it. There is no breakfast which is tricky when going to universal all day. The staff were super friendly though and it worked!
Leak in the hallway, they do not tell you it’s under renovation until after you pay, outlets do not work phone doesn’t work so when I had an issue I had to go downstairs, area is very unsafe. Incredibly overpriced and will never stay here again.

I was woken up by my eldest child since the rook started leaking. I called FD we were moved rooms at around midnight or so. I asked for hald off due to the inconvenience of moving everything after my youngest and myself were asleep. It was denied no other sort of compensation offered for inconvenience.
The hotel is in the process of updating and the finished product will look great. We got the halfway done look but it was still comfortable. The halllway was loud. Quick drink at the bar was nice and the shop and go worked out for us. Muffins and chocolate milk in the morning

Bad location. Pool is literally in an enclosed utility room. Multiple staff would not look up from their phone long enough to acknowledge guests. Not a kid friendly or safe environment.
