If your plan is to visit universal, this option is good. Pretty close and at the same time far from the crowd. If you like to walk, you even can leave the car at the hotel and go walking as we did. Calm place and quiet, something simple and good.

Great option for staying near Universal Studios, a short walk to where the tram picks up. Location also had several restaurants and a grocery store surrounding it. Staff was very friendly, helpful. Our room was clean, new, and comfy.
