Perfect place to stay for our Universal Studios trip. Clean rooms, kind service, convenient to many things in the area. Grateful for the free shuttles. Pool is clean and nice, and I like that it was open till 11pm so we could enjoy after a long day of walking around. Would stay again for sure!

Overall stay was great, it was quiet. Outside seems a little outdated, inside does look recently updated/painted, shower drains need some fixing and better cleaning, but overall was a great stay. Staff was great (only had two interaction with 2 different people but both were great.)

Scary
I have stayed here multiple times over the summer and have never had a problem. This last trip was my 4 year old a 12 and 13 year old and myself. We had a knock at the door at 7 a.m. I didn't move. I was scared. They knocked again at 850 a.m. This time I jumped up and ran to the window and a man was walking away from our door. Even more scared now I let the lady at the front desk know before we went to Universal for the day and asked when we returned and the other lady had no idea what I was talking about. This was part of a 2-day trip and we were offered to move to a new room but didn't want to go through the hassle. I just wanted the man identified.
