Great Value for the Price!

The hotel staff was very accommodating. On several occasions I needed things that were above and beyond and they made arrangements to make it happen. Overall clean. Didn't expect a 4star resort for the price. Very pleased. Can't beat the price. Would stay here again.

Holiday Weekend busy but efficient

Our purpose of our trip was to be as close to Universal Studios as possible at a reasonable cost. We were able to do that. Not only was it close to Universal but we had a variety of meal options all around us within walking distance. We walked to Universal in about 15 minutes. I liked that the continental breakfast was affordable and SERVED. :o) There was a little confusion to our room placement but the staff handled it professionally and with a smile. Our overall experience was good and we will use this location again.

Great stay for the price

This hotel was a great place to spend the night. We didn't spend much time there but the staff was nice and the room was clean. Great value especially since it was the cheapest hotel in walking distance from universal studios.

Good experience

Room was spacious and clean. The staff were very helpful. Was especially appreciated the fact that the floors were not carpeted because we always travel with our cats and it made cleaning up after them simple. I would suggest that staff review some minor issues as relates to the bed: the underside of the boxsprings were very tattered-this does not make a good impression. Also, this hotel should not be advertised as "withing walking distancc" to the entrance to Universal Studio Park but should include that shuttle service to all parks is available. Otherwise, all was good.
