There were lots of ants in the room. Lots and lots of ants in the dresser, microwave, fridge, desk. We noticed and requested a change of rooms, they said we could but when we were ready they did not have any other rooms available. They did offer “to spray something” but my son has asthma and I declined. The tv wasn’t working (they sent someone to fix it) the microwave wasn’t working well (made a loud noise and took 5 mins to warm anything). The breakfast was meh. I won’t be returning to this hotel.
It's fine. The first floor entrance was nice, but the third floor shows a lot of use and abuse. Bathroom was very rough with moldy baseboard. Doors had rough spackle across the front, like someone had punched a hole in it and they forgot to paint.

The hotel is within a 20 minute walk of Universal Studios and also has a free shuttle, but it leaves the studio at 5:30pm. Our room has a leak directly over the toilet. Each time someone on the floor above flushed, it would leak right on top of our toilet. Free breakfast was very good and hotel staff were very helpful. Outstanding Mexican restaurant across the street in a little shopping center.
