It was passable for an overnight stay. It is lacking in amenities for anything longer than that. Hotel was under renovations at the time of stay, so amenities which were advertised for the booked room were not available. Staff was prompt to address the concerns, however it should not be additional to charge for parking given the limited space and the unsafe area the hotel is located in. For what is being charged, it should be included with your stay.

It was okay…
First off let’s start with the good. It’s close like walking distance to universal. Which is why we picked it and it’s very clean. Now that being said the “shuttle” you have to walk to. It’s not something that comes to the hotel like I thought. Also charging 55$ a day to park your car! Is crazy to me! Like on top of already staying. There the extra charge is just something I never. Would’ve thought would be extra smh. For sure we will stay somewhere else after spending. A little over 1400 you would think I could park my car there. That would all be included in everything. The staff was very sweet and our stay was decent. Just irritated about the whole care thing to be honest.

I had a pretty good stay at this hotel. The rooms were basic but comfortable, which was nice. However, I was a bit surprised by the extra cleaning fee, as I thought that would be included in the stay. Also, there was a parking fee that wasn't mentioned when I booked, which was a bit of a letdown. Overall, it was a decent experience, but those extra charges were a bit of a bummer.

It was clean on inside and parking area. Room was big but was noisy by street sounds. You can see they tried to upgrade tile in bathroom but needs a bit better work. A bit water damage under sink. Man at front desk didn’t seem very approachable but still answered question. Area out side was dirty area

Not impressed
For a 3.5 star hotel I was not impressed. They are in the middle of renovations and it is obvious why. For the daily rate it was tacky at best. It’s old and although the room was “clean” the walls and furnishings are worn out. Very sparse accommodations.
