Could of been better...you get what pay!

Great location for visiting Universal Studios & Sea World. Rooms are being remolded, but the room we stayed the carpet was so dirty, woul not dare walk barefoot! Disgusting rug. The rest of the room was clean. Made reservation 4 days prior to arrival and Rooms where not ready, so at the front desk they said the rooms will be with lake view! Need to clean Lake...disgusting!!

Dissapointed

Run down next to and abandoned complex. Very spooky. Thought I was in a scene of Cops. Thought they were going to bust through the door any second. Carried my luggage up and down because I was afraid to leave it in the. Parking lot or in the hotel when we weren't there. The room itself was clean and the housekeeper was really nice.

It was clean

Its a good price, and a great location. The room served its purpose, a place to sleep and shower, but i wouldn't want to stay there for an extended vacation. The rooms are clean and the beds are comfy.

kumar_visit

we feel very bad into this hotel as we stayed in for 3 days out of which 2 days there was no hot water in the room, nor they provide any drinking water facility into the room. I don;t know how much time they took to fix the promblem but they keep on saying that something going bad with their boiler which they called is responsible for not warming the water for the complete hotel.

Not so good....

We had issues with one of the rooms rented in which the AC did not work. At check in we were told we had connecting rooms but once we got to the room they weren't. We tried to get different rooms that were connecting and we were told the hotel was book to capacity and no other rooms were available. We then had issues with one of the rooms in which the AC did not work, all of a sudden there were 2 other rooms available. We ended up moving just one of the rooms. At check out we had to pay a resort fee that was not disclosed at time of booking or at check in to the resort. We still had to pay even after the inconvinience we had. On a positive note, the rooms did seem clean and smelled good.
