4/10 Fair

Charging $30+ for parking a day when the parking lot is closed due to paving is pretty crazy. The parking available was a nice little walk and always full. Also cars were parking in areas that weren’t spots so it made getting around and out nearly impossible. No mention of this online and still charged for parking. Staff were all amazing. The hotel itself is under construction??? Not in great condition at all.

We stayed at this hotel due to the walking proximity to Universal Studios - and it did not disappoint! We were able to walk to Universal within 20-25 minutes with no issues. The staff were very kind and helpful when we needed it and our room was modern and clean. Would definitely stay here again if we needed to.

This is a good place to stay if you don’t mind the walk to universal, which is why we chose here. The hotel was relatively clean and the staff was helpful. We were able to have housekeeping a few times during our stay which was nice. We did use their transportation from the parks, which was easy and convenient.
