We had one booked after our cruise and planned to go to Universal Studios for my husbands birthday! It was so nice to be able to buy the tickets at the hotel. The shuttle to the park was nice too. We were supposed to fly home the next day but a mix up with our flight meant we needed to stay another night. Thank goodness the hotel was able to book us another night in our same room. I would stay here again.

They never put my money back on my card for the unused incidental fees that they charged me. They charged my card twice for parking fees that they said were covered in the incidental fee!! Our room smelled like old mildew and mold causing me and my children to have a horrible cough!! The room was a bit outdated to me. Will NOT and returning.

The checking process was by far, the absolute worst experience we ever had. It took the front desk 40 mins to check in our family. The shower drainage is very poor. Definitely, not a $200/night room.
