I liked the room it had 2 tvs so my child had a tv to watch what they wanted, I like the breakfast it was a full breakfast and alot of choices and the food was very good
in general not bad. It has details, the bathroom is very small and when you take a shower the water comes out and everything gets wet. the beds in the double rooms are very small, 2 people sleep uncomfortable. In general, it is fine with details.
The pool was nice and usually quiet. The park is only a 5 minute Uber drive away from the Universal Resort entrance.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The breakfast offerings were just right for the areas of choice, quality, and quantity. The venue was spacious and well cleaned and sanitized.
The in-room cable service signal was spotty, subject to screen freezes. The facility had three elevators. Only one was working, leading to delays and frustration.
