Room was comfortable. Some room features were a bit odd (bathroom light lit up the main bedroom area). Biggest problem was the elevators were so slow and not enough. Waited 20 minutes to get in one with luggage. Ended up having to ride the elevator up to the top floor and then down to get to the lobby.

The Staff was impeccable. You couldn't ask for more accommodating and professional people. The hotel does however need to address their elevators. They are slow, undersized for their workload, and just short of unusable.

The property is nice and the lobby has an inviting appeal. The main reason for booking the hotel what the prime location (my family and I were visiting Universal Studios). We checked after our park visit (around 9pm at night). Our bell service attendant and front desk clerk were very nice and polite. The room was nothing special, in fact a little dated. Very dim and dark and there is no central lighting, you have to manually turn on the lights, and even then no much light projected. I consistently stay at different hotels in Irvine, Orange County CA which js south of L.A, and pay a fraction of the price than what I paid here and those rooms have laminate/ vinyl flooring. The rooms here at Sheraton still have carpet! There were even stains on the carpet. Sheraton needs invest in flooring you can clean. For the price, stains on a carpet are unacceptable. Also, we checked out by 10:30 am the next day and I was $51 for self parking! Less than a 24 hour stay and that was my fee. Disgusting. If you are looking for convenience, stay here. I would not recommend for families with small children.

Nice clean hotel. Close to Universal Studios. Parking had Tesla charging in the garage and Superchargers right next to the hotel. Only 2 complaints. The daily parking rate quoted on Hotels.com said $39 but hotel charged $47 + taxes. The person at the front desk did take care of this for me which was great. The only other issue was it was very inconvenient to unload our luggage from our car. Because we did not want to do valet service we were told we could not park in front of the hotel lobby so we had to move to the other side of the roundabout. And when my 13 year-old daughter went and asked to get a luggage cart she was told she could not take one and that they would send someone over, but they never did. But overall, nice hotel.

It was a nice hotel. However, when we pulled out the sofa bed there was trash behind it and the bathroom trash can had no bag. There was no complimentary breakfast for the price.
