This is not a fancy hotel, but it does not promise to be a fancy hotel. It is clean and simple. Also, the rooms are double beds, not queens. Again, queen-sized beds are not promised; but some may want to rethink if they are going to be sharing beds. Pros - convenient location for our trip to Universal Studios and for general touristy things on I-Drive; clean common areas (we used the pool, basketball small court, and gym area); relatively quiet; little wait time at front desk Cons - Our big con was that we called a couple of weeks prior to the trip and requested adjoining rooms, which we were told was likely possible. When we got there, the front desk clerk said that he could see in the notes that we requested adjoining rooms but that unfortunately they did not have any left. We remarked that we had called over two weeks earlier. He checked the notes again, agreed with us that we had indeed called plenty early, muttered "why didn't she just assign the rooms then", and then told us that he was so sorry, but there was nothing he could do. I have no idea what went wrong, but we ended up in two rooms on the same floor but not next to or directly across from each other. Would we book at this hotel again? If it was just my husband and me, yes. Everything was so convenient. We didn't drive more than 15 minutes for any of the activities that we did during our multi-day stay. But if bringing the kids and counting on adjoining rooms, no; I would look somewhere else.
