The staff is wonderful. The room was big and comfort, we did have a problem with AC unit but they was quick help us out. Universal Studios a short walk. Thank you front desk member for helping out and making awesome memories. Looking forward to staying here more in future trip.
Very close and convenient location if universal park is your destination. Shuttle available within walking distance. Staff is friendly. Booking included complimentary beverage at the bar located on site. Room was okay, hotel currently undergoing renovation. Parking available at additional price.
The pool is non existent. It was the reason we went... my 10 year old wanted to swim for her birthday. Its not a pool... its a broken hot tub. We would like a refund for that alone, but I know we would never get that. And over $100 in fees is totally unacceptable. We will tell people to avoid this hotel at all costs.

The mattress was so uncomfortable and the pillows flat. The room was under furnished and the tv was small and old. The worst hotel, we honestly couldn’t wait to leave.
Not intuitive how to turn shower on. Annoying. I called down and my business partner had called for the same thing from a different room. Good location near but not on freeway Basic decor.
The BLVD is clean and the rooms are very clean. The best part is , you get a welcome drinks! It’s very convenient to get around!

Hotel staff were awesome and accommodating. Extremely helpful and friendly, this was the best!
The room was spacious and looked very nice. And the distance to Universal Studios for the budget was great.
The downside… we saw 3 roaches. I am hoping and going to chalk it up as this may be due to the current renovation. I understand the area is older. Hopefully some pest control and sealing off the newly installed tile and bare boards can help the issue. I’d absolutely give the hotel another shot if this issue was addressed.

The employees were very courteous. The room however, needed a little love: the table lamp missed the on/off button and the electrical connections were useless (too loose!)

Heat never came on in the room, it was cold. Shower took too long to get hot. Had do not disturb on the door and staff still came in and straightened up room.
The room was great - it was large with 2 king beds and a living area. Beds/pillows were comfortable. Staff was friendly and helpful. Enjoyed the free drink ticket at the bar. It was walking distant to a grocery store. The neighbourhood was ok - we didn't feel as comfortable walking at night. It was close to Universal Studio's.
