    Very loud when the conference delegates all hit the bar!

    Perfect location for our visit to Universal, we could either get the shuttle to the parks or walk 10 mins direct no problem. The room was lovely and spacious and had a great view. the bar was busy both nights and a great spot for a well earned post Mario cocktail

    I would have liked to have some casual dining options nearby. We would have packed more snacks had we known.

    It was a nice big room. Very clean and comfortable. The pool and hot tub were perfect after the long drive there, after a long day at Universal Studios and before the long drive home. The pool being open from 5:30AM till Midnight was great! And we really enjoyed grounds around the pool and seeing the koi and turtles swimming around.

    The sofa bed was uncomfortable and it made a lot of noise when my daughter or husband moved.

    Everything was amazing… just the carpet was dirty in a couple areas of the room.

    The cost and prices of amenities. I do not understand why paying guests must also pay $45 per day to park. If we are in your hotel as guests, why can't we park our cars for free. The cost of the breakfast was also overwhelming for the taste. I can definitely do without the food and amenities price gouging.

    I loved the location and proximity to Universal Studios. I also loved the pet friendly facility.

    I did not like that the room choices did not come with breakfast. If I am spending almost $500 for a room, there should some perk as a member.

    I like that the hotel was close to Universal Studios. The covenience was amazing.

    The pool was quite good but the hot tub water looked dirty. It would have been nice to have a more direct route to walk to Universal. The check-in was terrible. Had to wait in line to check in; then when room was ready had to wait in line AGAIN to pick up the key. Would have liked the Cafe to be open for dinner.

    The room was spacious and comfortable. It is close to Universal Studios. The Lobby Restaurant had a decent menu and was open good hours. Enjoyed breakfast in the Cafe

    In the room there was a maid’s cleaning towel on the table as soon as you walk in. I was too tired to call and complain, and not surprise because the same thing happened 18 years ago when my husband and I came to stay at the hotel but the towel was on the bed. We called that time. And the gentleman seemed annoyed. That same trip we used the valet and a gas card was stolen. We told the front desk and they didn’t care. Since then I haven’t trust Valet. As a mother taking a trip with her daughters I had to stay close to hotel and park for safety reasons, otherwise I would have tried a different hotel.

    The location was perfect for our trip to the park. The shuttle bus came every 15min but decide to just walk to the park but used the shuttle for the evening.
