Hotel was clean, fine for just sleeping ONLY IF you don’t have noisy neighbors. Walls are so paper thin you can hear someone eating chips in the room next to you. Which really happened to us at 2am our first night there with a couple taking until 4am. It was not the couples fault as they weren’t being loud, obnoxious or unruly. It was simply that the walls are so thin. The bed sheets are not good. Location and bus service was good.

From the moment we arrived the staff were pleasant, courteous and couldn't do enough for you. The room was clean and met all the needs for our stay. The amenities on site were better than any of the previous hotels Ive stayed at while in Orlando. Free shuttle transport to and from the parks made life a lot easier for us since we visited them every day and saved a lot of money. I would recommend to anyone if they were to visit Orlando and specially Universal parks to stay at the Dockside.

Since this is a universal property, loved the shuttle service from the hotel to the parks which aren’t very far from the hotel. The cafeteria offers a good choice of food throughout the day and serves nice sized portions to satisfy any appetite.
