The hotel looks to be in good condition and was clean enough. Very noisy in the mornings—couldn’t sleep past 6 AM. Location isn’t great and there are quite a few homeless folks sleeping on the backsides of the property. We made the short walk to Target and it didn’t feel safe. Also, the shuttle options to Universal are very limited and you have to give 24 hour notice which can be difficult without prior notice of the policy.
