Great place to stay!

Had a very nice stay while travelling through the area to the east coast. A perfect stay overnight with our family, our kid loved being able to swim in the pool after a day in the car, and the rooms were clean, comfortable and well kept. Had a fridge and a microwave which was handy while travelling. The restaurant was very accommodating, served us even though they were getting ready to close, so kind!

10/10 Exceptional

Good location to stay at Universal.

Check-in was very smooth. Gentleman in the reception was very cordial. Hotel was full of guests, so finding out a parking space was difficult. As of now, the overall cleanliness I find is satisfactory.

Emilie, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great stay for travellers.

The room was clean and well maintained. Staff were friendly and well organized. Breakfast was reasonably priced and servers were great. I would suggest more regular cleaning of the pool. The water was cloudy and there was an accumulation of dirt at the bottom. There was also some kind of debris in the pool (bathroom tissue?). We had a dog with us and were given a ground floor room with parking lot access which made loading and unloading easy, as well as easy in and out for the dog.
Katherine, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good location.

Room was well equipped bed comfortable. Air condition was a bit loud and shower pressure was low. Staff was great though.
Eric, 3-night trip

4/10 Fair

It was ok, nothing to complain about but This cost over $500 for one night and there was absolutely no reason to charge so much. Old building, no extras no breakfast included. Not worth the money at all. The pictures are super deceiving.
Alisa, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

$$$$$$ but mostly remodeled and very nice.
