Everything was great. Nancy(the manager) went above and beyond to make this stay wonderful for me, my wife and our daughter. Housekeeping was also wonderful as our room and the hotel was pretty spotless! The shuttle for Universal was within walking distance, a less than ten minute walk. The pool heater wasn’t working, but it was indoor and was almost warm without it. This is our new “go-to” hotel for our Universal trips.

They charged us more money when we arrived. We knew about the extra parking fee, which was supposedly a mandatory $42 charge for using their parking lot, but when we arrived, in addition to that fee, they charged us more money just for using their establishment—more that 100 dlls I felt like I was in Mexico, where they charge you just for stepping into their hotel. And they still warn us that if we want them to clean, we have to say it "well,I said no," they might even charge us for that. The hotel looks like it used to be a Motel 6; it even has orange doors like Motel 6s, and they just disguised the lobby to make it look luxurious. They also have double parking and warn you to leave them the key or they'll call a tow truck. I wouldn't go back, I wouldn't recommend it,

The "surprise" expensive parking fee is not cool. It's a little insulting. That should be more clear upon booking. Plus, my key card stopped working many times, I had to keep going down to the desk 5 times. finally she had to bring a key up and let me into my room. Other than that, the room IS comfortable though., I liked the bed.

We didnt use the pool so can't rate it. The room was clean, water pressure in the shower was poor. The bar was good. The bartender was friendly and attentive. All the staff was very friendly.

The room at first look was nice, but the Ac didn’t feel cool at all so the night time was a struggle. The pillows were tiny, the shower was kind of confusing to use at first, the way the toilet flushes is weird it’s takes awhile and you really have to hold the lever down, also circling back to the Ac the cover for it fell off during the night which added to the frustration but For the most part the staff was nice it’s just those little things that do stand out.
