The hotel location was great. We were close to everything we needed to be, including Universal. The room was clean and the room setup was great for our family with there being a little living area separate from the bedroom. There was definitely a lack of amenities. There is a pool, but it was not heated and since we were staying in December, it was way too cold for a pool that was not heated. We were also not given new towels one of the days and the room could have been cleaned a little better.

We stayed here because it was close to Universal. This hotel has a nice staff. Everyone was friendly to the guests, our bedroom was clean and the hot tea and coffee stand near the elavator was always filled, This hotel seemed like a renovated hotel but it serves all the purposes we needed. Breakfast was continental without meat but had boiled eggs which was a plus. Would five star if sausage was provided at breakfast.

The staff was friendly. The amenities could be better, the breakfast offered is not at all appealing, and the hallway (at least on the 2nd floor) has no AC so it feels and smells like humidity. Beds are comfortable but the bathroom in my room had weird stains on the tub.
