Very convenient for universal but wasn’t so clean. You’re paying for the convenience not for the hotel itself. Walking in room with no socks you can feel that the carpet is dirty. Looking you would think your gonna stay in a decent hotel looks beautiful but housekeeping must suck because this wasn’t so great. Put a towel on floor in bathroom and it was filthy I usually pay half the price and drive about 8 min to universal and those hotel are wayyyyy more cleaner and better. 50$ parking as well is crazy.

The room was very small and I was supposed to have a room with a king size bed and the bed was not king size. When the couch bed is pulled out there is no space to walk and not convenient for a family with children. I was also supplant have breakfast included with my reservation and they said the breakfast is only for two people not all four of us, the description was very deceiving and should say breakfast is only for two guests.
