Everything was nice, pool was clean and warm, staff were great. SUPER close to the universal parks, if you don’t take the shuttle I recommend an uber it was only $7 each way to and from the park.

Website states it’s a mile from universal’s epic universe, it’s 3 miles. Check in was full of rude staff. Tried to explain to a lady something was wrong in our room but she just kept saying “I no understand”. The hotel was in POOR shape. The bottoms of doors and walls were crumbled away. They used the “just paint over it” method for anything else that was damaged. Door knobs were broken and had to be finagled to get in your room. Breakfast was literally powdered eggs, rock hard pancakes and cereal with a weird tasting milk. We had a do not disturb sign on our door but still had employees knocking. Not worth the money. Stay on international drive for a better price and close to the parks.

Great Staff, can be cleaner

The staff was excellent and friendly. Breakfast was delicious. Very centralized and minutes from universal studios. Pillows were extremely bumpy, hard and uncomfortable. There was a red stain on my sheets.

The customer service is subpar. They aren't really professional and the breakfast is pretty bad. It's the bare minimum hotel with rooms that look like motel rooms. honestly the only benefit are the shuttles that take you to Disney and Universal. Don't count on staying in this hotel room for a long time because it's not the greatest.

I like the outside access and that it was very quiet, whether that was because the walls are thicker or they didn’t put neighbors next to us. Either way that was very pleasant. While they didn’t say anything to us directly, there was a small sign stating food was not permitted in rooms, nor was there a microwave in the room which was quite annoying, as we had leftovers since we were on vacation for a few days.
