Great hotel in a perfect location

The hotel was clean, the staff was friendly and helpful. The restaurant at the hotel was amazing! The only thing keeping me from giving a 5 star is that although they stated we would get room cleaning after the 3rd night, we never had our used towels removed.

Good stay

While the hotel is older, the room was very clean and the linens were clean and soft towels. Only thing I missed was having a chair to sit on. Door sticks and needs to be looked at, had some difficulty opening the door each time I used the pass card.

It is conveniently located for Universal. However, the door to enter the room was clearly broken into. You could see where a crowbar was used to pry it open. The other room had a hole where a lock once was. I was glad it was not just me and my daughter because I would not have stayed.

Amina at the front desk was outstanding. She helped me check in earlier and was accommodating with anything my son and I needed. The rooms and pool were clean, the hot tub came in handy after a long day at the theme park. The shuttles to the park was the main reason why I booked here, however the times were either too early or too late so wind up taking Uber, good thing it wasn't too expensive because of the close proximity. I do recommend updating their furniture though. Other than that it was a decent stay for a weekend trip.
