I reserved a tower room weeks in advance and when I checked in the front desk gave me a regular room. The lady was extremely rude and told me to call orbitz since I paid orbitz. When orbitz called the hotel the lady would not authorize a refund for the difference in room prices. The room was run down, musty, mirror coating was peeling off in the bathroom and the room had a weird high pitched humming noise in the wall that sounded like faulty electrical wiring. My daughter couldn't even sleep between the high pitched noise, sound from the ice machine in the room next to us and the gap under the door allows all outside hallway noise to come in.

I really like this hotel. I have booked here twice. The location is great for nearby restaurants and attractions on the strip. My only issue was with the checkout. Checkout is at 11 and housekeeping knocked on my door twice before 10. Then around 10:30/10:45 they sent a different guy up to knock again.

Beautiful and comfortable hotel. I had a really wonderful time. The bartenders David and Luis were fantastic! They made the vacation! Love the castle theme and the little nook in the tower room. Unfortunately, the hot tub stopped working the second night and wasn't fixed by the time we left. Requested a late check out, was told it eas added to my account, but it wasn't. The guy who knocked on my room dooflr was very rude, almost hostile. He needs to go! The pool attendant that was telling everyone to leave at 10:00pm was aggressive and rude. He needs to go, too. Other than those 2 jerks, the stay was great!

Staff was amazing and so kind- we got in super late for our first night and the front desk staff were swift and efficient getting us to our room. Insanely comfy bed, spacious room! Breakfast was delicious and we were only a quick (and cheap!) uber to universal. Hung out at the pool and pool bar the next day and were able to get a late check out! Such a wonderful place with great staff- I can’t wait to come back!
