Nice hotel. It’s only a six minute drive from Universal studios. No issues with check in or finding the room. Room had a microwave and fridge. The concierge sends you a text that you can use if you need anything. I texted for more towels and he brought them right away. Nice hotel for families. My kids had no issues either.

Not a good experience

Water drainage: The shower drains extremely slowly, making it unpleasant to use. Unauthorized room service: Our room was serviced without permission or request. Personal belongings were moved, yet the trash from the prior day was left untouched. Beds were made, but extra towels (placed for a water leak) were taken, resulting in water spreading into the adjoining room. Toilet malfunction: Upon returning, the toilet was clogged. Upon informing the front desk a plunger was provided, however I plunged the toilet, so it would be operational, and for adults would not have to share a bathroom for the night. Maintenance unavailability: We were told no maintenance is available on weekends, leaving reported issues unresolved. Telephone inoperable: The in-room phone does not function, requiring us to physically walk to the front desk after unanswered calls. Front desk responsiveness: Calls to the front desk went unanswered after multiple rings, which is unacceptable for a hotel of this standard. Noisy environment: The neighboring rooms have been disruptive, adding to an already frustrating experience. Electrical issues: The outlets in the bedside lamps in both rooms are non-functional, creating both an inconvenience and a safety concern. Altogether, these issues have caused significant disruption during what should have been a celebratory and memorable occasion for my family. Im still waiting gor the manager to teach out.

The hotel was fine for our family trip to Universal Studios. The elevator did not work and the pool was not open, as it needed cleaned. We weren’t there much, so it didn’t matter.

Decent place to stay for Universal Studios

Pros: close to Universal Studios- yes you could walk but we Angelenos drove (recommend getting to Universal as early as possible since wait times can be very long- be there when they open the gates!); clean room; decent-size fridge and microwave; Keurig in the room; rooms were clean and spacious; sufficient parking. There is a Starbucks and I think another breakfast place across the street which may make up for the lack of room service for some guests. We went on rides then ate breakfast at the Three Broomsticks in the Hogwarts section of Universal- serves breakfast til I believe 11 am- and that was great. I would even recommend skipping a big breakfast (like just get a protein bar or something) so you can make the most of the first hour that the park is open. We could not find a breakfast place at CityWalk. Cons: hotel maintenance, across the board. The elevator was broken for most of our stay here, the aerator in the faucet needed to be changed, bathroom ventilator sounded like a 747, etc.. No breakfast option (or any room service) and no coffee in-room, at least that I saw, though there is coffee and tea in the downstairs lobby. The street out front of the hotel is very busy- this could be an issue for people with small children. Rooms are a bit sterile and the lobby is a dark cave. They charge $10 to hold your bags for the day and $55 for parking, which are little costs that add up. Amazingly, they had no sugar-free soda for sale in the lobby fridge- are we even in LA?
