The room was exactly what we needed it to be! The beds were clean, room was clean! The shower did unfortunately fill with water rather quickly but we didn’t try and get it fixed or anything. I booked it for 4 people and didn’t realize the beds were doubles. Although it was a tight fit, we were so tired from universal it didn’t matter. The front desk was very nice and accommodating. Booking through Expedia and working with the front desk was flawless and there were no hidden fees. I paid exactly what I wanted which was the cheaper price off Expedia! Overall good trip. We would stay there again
