I chose this property to take advantage of Early Park Admission offered. It was not worth it. We were on the first shuttle over to IOA at 7a/m for Hagrid’s to break down 10 minutes after the park opened. We stayed in line until 9:30 hoping it would reopen, until they finally announced the ride would be closed until further notice. So we walk over to HP & the Forbidden Journey to get in line there, when they also shut down with technical difficulties. It wasn’t until almost 11a/m that we were finally able to ride our first ride, the Velocicoaster. This wasn’t the hotel’s fault of course, but I could’ve stayed across the street at the Hyatt for a free breakfast. Everything was a la carte at Dockside’s market, spending almost $50 for a coffee, OJ, carton of yogurt, small fruit and a scone. I probably would’ve still rated this hotel 3 out of 5 stars except for the nightly noise. Do not plan on sleeping at this place until well after 2 a/m. It was horrendous.

Our recent stay at Universal Endless Summer Dockside, during spring break, was fantastic. We switched to this hotel two days before our trip to Universal, and have zero regrets. We checked in on a Wednesday, and the whole process was a breeze. Staff were friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. We never had to wait more than 5 minutes for a shuttle to/from the Universal parks. The area surrounding the hotel felt safe enough during the day, but we did come across some interesting individuals in the evenings - I would hesitate to walk alone after dark. There were several walkable shopping choices nearby for groceries, including a fantastic Portuguese store and a chain drug store with simple grocery options. The property was within a 30 minute walk of many fast food options, restaurants, retail complexes and outlet shopping malls. The pool area was resort-like and never busy, but the water was pretty cold. The fitness centre was incredible - new machines, and plentiful treadmills. The food court was very pricey - we did not eat there. In room coffee and a mini-fridge were a plus. I can't recommend this hotel enough. It was a delightful stay for my family of four (two adults, two teenagers).
