Family Trip to Universal

The hotel was fine for our family trip to Universal Studios. The elevator did not work and the pool was not open, as it needed cleaned. We weren’t there much, so it didn’t matter.

Decent place to stay for Universal Studios

Pros: close to Universal Studios- yes you could walk but we Angelenos drove (recommend getting to Universal as early as possible since wait times can be very long- be there when they open the gates!); clean room; decent-size fridge and microwave; Keurig in the room; rooms were clean and spacious; sufficient parking. There is a Starbucks and I think another breakfast place across the street which may make up for the lack of room service for some guests. We went on rides then ate breakfast at the Three Broomsticks in the Hogwarts section of Universal- serves breakfast til I believe 11 am- and that was great. I would even recommend skipping a big breakfast (like just get a protein bar or something) so you can make the most of the first hour that the park is open. We could not find a breakfast place at CityWalk. Cons: hotel maintenance, across the board. The elevator was broken for most of our stay here, the aerator in the faucet needed to be changed, bathroom ventilator sounded like a 747, etc.. No breakfast option (or any room service) and no coffee in-room, at least that I saw, though there is coffee and tea in the downstairs lobby. The street out front of the hotel is very busy- this could be an issue for people with small children. Rooms are a bit sterile and the lobby is a dark cave. They charge $10 to hold your bags for the day and $55 for parking, which are little costs that add up. Amazingly, they had no sugar-free soda for sale in the lobby fridge- are we even in LA?

We really enjoy staying at the Hotel. Hotel is very nice, clean and smells really good. Front Desk people are very nice, accommodating and very friendly. Area is walking distance to Universal Studio and City Walk. Free juice and coffee. Bed is comfortable and room is clean. My only complaint is that the room is too dark.

Jake at check in was fantastic and super friendly. He was fast and efficient. The hotel was in a great location. Close to everything we needed. The rooms and furniture in the rooms were showing lots of wear. Lots of rust on fixtures and furniture that needed updating. The hall had a large bleach spot. Overall would absolutely stay again in hopes some items get renovated.

The property itself is older and definitely shows its age. It smelled like someone smoking pot outside, but the hallway and rooms have a heavy perfume smell that was VERY strong. There was someone dumpster diving in the property's dumpster, and nobody seemed to care. Parking is stacked 2 deep, so the blocking vehicle needs to leave their keys at the front office so they can move your car as needed. The hotel is located next to a freeway, so there is a lot of vehicle noise - that can't be helped, but if you're a light sleeper, you might want ear plugs or some form of white noise.
