Never get the TL rooms. Too close to the pool and gets noisy. Don’t upgrade to premium rooms, they are small and by no standards premium. I would suggest avoiding this hotel. Very average and not worth the price they charge. Never again.

Conveniently located to Universal, as we were exhausted from the days activities and needed a relaxing stay. Check-in was easy and staff was super friendly and down to earth. Room was cozy, clean and comfortable.

We stayed for the weekend. Wonderful property. The California restaurant was a great experience, and provided most of our meals during our stay. It is conveniently located to Universal Studios.

Loved that there were many places at walking distance or 5 minute drives. The self serve snacks were a big hit for my daughters and the pool. Loved the pool by bar. They cleaned our room everyday without us having to ask like in other hotels.

great atmosphere and hotel. super comfy king bed. great view. cons are mold, mildew in shower, cracked tiles and missing grout, sofa couch was terrible, very uncomfortable. broken door piece to bathroom, closet doors stick and rub on cabinet frame. they charge a fee to park in there parking structure. It should be complimentary if your staying at the hotel

I was not impressed with this hotel. Booked the "family room" with pull out couch that was absolutely rock hard. My poor son had to sleep on a "bed" that was no softer than the floor. The staff was totally unhelpful. The Starbucks that was supposed to be open until 11am each day was closed at 10:07 with no explanation. The concierge who is supposed to be there to help with park tickets was barely ever at the desk. We went to the pool and there were NO towels. When I let the front desk know they seemed annoyed and said they would tell housekeeping but 30 minutes later...still no towels. We will be staying at the Hilton next time.

We had a hot water problem for a couple of nights, but overall it was a great place to stay.. conveniently walking distance to universal— The manager gave us a comp on the parking fee due to the hot water issue .. Overall a comfortable and nice stay. (included breakfast was nice as well, but its not included for everyone)

The property does not take Apple Pay only physical cards. This was a great inconvenience to me because I did not have the physical cards I wanted to use with me so I had to go to the bank and get cash. In addition, there was a 300.00 deposit. The room was 375.00. This is ridiculous and I had no forwarding. Aft are such a great day at Universal Studios, we ended the day having to take our luggage back to the car, load up, find a bank, get cash , drive back and then check in. Then, the room we were given was next to the elevator. We couldn’t catch a break and felt unwelcome.

We were able to check-in early for our stay and head straight to Universal Studios. Staff contacted us when our rooms were ready and the whole process was quick. Rooms were a little small but nicely updated. Shuttle to City walk was convenient. Although you could walk to the park in 8 mins. I would definitely recommend staying here.

Stayed in Double Bed suite with sofa bed. Sofa bed is unsuitable for sleeping on and the bed kit was a pillow and basic sheet. It took 3 hours after check in to get a cot bed and suitable beds for the children. Not enough towels for party size so again had to request from front desk. The windows used to be sliding doors so let in a lot of cold air. The finishing works done to the room are not to the standard of the hotel or the expected nightly rate. The bathroom door had a broken strike plate and the cupboards had tight hinges leading them to bang when opening. We left disappointed with the room and could only recommend if money isn’t a worry and you want to be in close proximity to Universal.

We came with 2 kids around 12 pm , I wasn’t expecting we will be accommodated right away , he let us check in earlier instead of 4 pm . I was grateful because of that . We are prepared just to wait until 4 and leave our baggages for few hour and go to Universal . We only have 1 and half day to stay . Unlike the opposite hotel , we needed to wait until 4 pm regardless if you have 2 children with you .

The staff is very polite and friendly. Parking is around 50$ a day but worth the convenience to get to universal. You will hear some traffic from the rooms, and there was a high pitch electrical sound that I couldn't locate in the room. The rooms are on the smaller side, but we made it work as a family of 4.
