Hidden charges, hotel under remodel, our room was recently remodeled and had very heavy over powering odor, bathroom handle on outside of door needed repairs and caused the lock inside the bathroom not to work. Safe had no batteries and was unusable, cleaning staff placed same wet dirty floor towel back to our bathroom with the same spot on my tub. dust everywhere throughout the hallways and main areas, staff is rude only Carlos and Sabrina were helpful. Terrible stay. Will not be returning. Would like a refund or may proceed with Google and yelp.

Double Bed Room was "remodeled"; how ever, middle of the night 2am, toilet did not work, there was no water; like if it had been turned off, had to request a change of room. Parking very expensive but, convenient location if you are going to Universal Studios.

To be honest the hotel is under renovation which should have been noted on Expedia prior to us booking so the pool was not available. The room was ok but the bathroom door locked did t work properly, the entry door slammed which they all did because we heard slamming doors all stay long. There was no bottled water in the room and only two towels provided and the AC didn’t work very well. The room felt damp. The staff was very friendly though

The staff onsite are AMAZING. Very friendly and helpful. Unfortunately, that's where the pros end. The hotel is old and in disrepair. They were working on renovations while we were there which is great, but meant a lot of noise early in the mornings (before 7am). Our room itself had so much potential (2 bedroom, 2 bathroom suite). However the couch had a massive divot in it which made it uncomfortable to sit in and the beds were the same. Very old, worn and uncomfortable. I hope the renovations will include new furniture. I just don't see how resort fees and $30 a day parking can be justified by the state of the room and hotel as it was when we visited. Hopefully the renovations fix those issues, because it really has a ton of potential and the staff there was so friendly.

The only thing good about this property was it's proximity to Universal Studios. We booked this hotel 3 month in advance (June) and a couple of weeks before going we were notified the lobby was under construction. I didn't think that would be a big deal but looked for other hotels anyways. Because we were so close to our travel date at that point the prices were astronomical so we didn't have a choice. When we got to the hotel the lobby was actually the nicest cleanest part of the hotel despite it being under construction. Our room was so humid the floor and bedding were damp our whole stay. The bathroom door didn't work properly due to the humidity in the hotel. You could get stuck in there if alone. The door to the room was missing a screw on the mechanism so you had to jiggle it to close the door. It smelled very poorly in the hallways and the elevator. The only elevator that opened was the service elevator which was in very poor condition. We stay at a lot of Holiday Inns and this one does not meet their normal standards. My recommendation would be to stay somewhere else until they've renovated. We attempted to get a refund due to the conditions and was advised our "booking was nonrefundable and doesn't allow any exceptions and they're sticking with their policy and won't issue any refund, not even a partial." Zero flexibility and no apology, which is disappointing. We will think twice before booking at another Holiday Inn. Stay somewhere else.

Never again

Hotel was under complete renovation but no information was provided about this when booking. This became a major issue for us when we needed a soda at midnight and were informed they had removed ALL vending from the hotel and not bothered to think of any alternatives for guests in need. Bothered me so much I will never stay there again. Also a bit peeved about the lack of information about parking fees. I could have stayed at another hotel for the same price with parking included- and I bet they would have had a soda machine!
