We had some issues. Room phone did not work. Fridge did not work safe did not work, plus no outlet for charging phone or anything. The only fixed the fridge. By swapping out for another one. Looks to be a cheap way of some remodeling. But clean.

The room temp was 58 degrees when we arrived and blasting cold air despite turning the heat up to 77. We had to use blankets from both beds and bathroom towels to keep warm. The adjoining room only had 1 door between with very sketchy locks. You could see into the other room and hear through the door. The hotel was very outdated with rusty, crumbling decor; although it was as clean as a room of that caliber could be. It was an awful stay with basically no sleep because of how unsafe we felt in the room.

Let me start by saying the photos on Expedia are doing some *heavy lifting*. **Location:** Five minutes from Universal! This is true. This is the best thing I can say. Hold onto this fact, because it's all downhill from here. **First Impressions:** The listing said "hotel." My eyes said "motel." **Room Condition:** Remember those lamp shades in the photos? In person, they're giving "science experiment gone wrong" with what I can only describe as *decorative* black mold. The shower also features this trendy biological artwork. **Housekeeping:** housekeeping is available but you walk to the front desk to schedule it. Need towels? That's another trip to the front desk. **Breakfast:** $12 for "continental breakfast." I don't know what continent they're referencing, but it's definitely not one I've visited. **Theme Park Shuttles:** They advertise shuttles! They have shuttles! Will those shuttles work with your actual park schedule? Absolutely not. Hope you enjoy leaving Disney at 7 PM and Universal at 6 PM, because apparently these shuttles turn into pumpkins. Parking: Arrive after 8 PM and you'll find cars parked in what can only generously be called "creative configurations." The middle of the road is apparently fair game. Noise Level: The housekeeping carts sound like they're training for NASCAR. I genuinely thought a 747 was attempting an emergency landing outside my door. Would I stay here again? Not unless I was being paid, and even then, I'd need hazard pay

Hotel is very close to I-4; traffic was extremely noisy, as it was if a window was open. No lamp on one of the night stands. No facial tissue in the bathroom. Pillows were like trying to sleep on marshmallows. Hotel staff was very friendly and helpful.

Luggage rack in the room is a bit worn out; the pillows are not in standard size but in cushion size. The water pressure in the bathroom is low. Overall, it is still a good option given the price during the holiday season.

The staff was great, the hotel is okay. We flew in late and we were going to Universal Studios the next day, so it was perfect for a one night stay, close to the parks. The room was clean - we would stay here again if it was just one night because of the great location and price!

The room was very clean, and if you’re on the front side of the hotel you likely won’t hear the nearby highway noise like I did in a rear-facing room. That said, I still slept better here than I did on the cruise I had just finished, which says a lot. I genuinely wanted to give this hotel a higher rating. I tend to root for smaller properties, especially when they’re competing with much larger hotels nearby. Unfortunately, one issue significantly detracted from my experience. During check-in, the staff took a photocopy/photo of my passport. I was not given a clear explanation as to why this was necessary, how the information would be stored, or what would happen to it after my stay. I’ve stayed at many larger hotels and have never been required to provide a copy of my passport. If the concern is potential room damage or incidentals, then cover it by holding a credit card on file. Collecting and retaining copies of passports without transparency is not a good security practice, and it left me uncomfortable for the remainder of my stay. Clear communication and better data-handling policies would go a long way toward improving the guest experience.

The motel was clean and staff was fine. The only complains I have is it was close to I-4 and it was very noisy. Luckily I brought out sound machine are we would not have gotten any sleep. The pillows need to be replaced with firmer pillows. I would stay here again with my sound machine because it was good for the price.
