Perfect hotel for trip to Universal! Rooms were comfortable, beds slept great, and the A/C kept us comfortable all week. This hotel essentially shares a parking lot with the Universal Endless Summer resort - you can walk right across and ride the Universal busses all day. They even come back late at night from City Walk. Between being so close to the parks, the access to the Universal shuttle (w/o the Universal resort $$$), the FREE PARKING, and a pool that was open to 10pm, it was a great experience for our whole family!

I had a good business stay. The staff was very helpful and Rachael at the Breakfast Bar was amazing with customer service! Rooms and Bathrooms need a real deep clean though. Especially in the Bathtubs and Toilet areas PLEASE! I’d probably look for somewhere else to stay next time but overall not too bad. Location is cool plenty do and eat around the area.
