Great location, quite near to USJ, the subway and the wharf. Our room had a great view of the bay. Hotel staff are very friendly and while not all of them are fluent in English, they are willing to use their phones to translate to ensure accurate communication. Rooms are spacious and comfortable. Staff members also helped us with luggage forwarding. Buffet breakfast was excellent.

We ended up walking long distance as we accidentally walked to Universal City Walk side. I wish there was a sign at a train station to point which way the hotel was. If you walk to the right direction, the hotel is located really close.
The staffs, facilities and service ware perfect. I felt we were very welcomed. My daughter was a little disappointed to receive a Elmo card and stickers as she likes Minions. Even I don't understand why it was Elmo, I still feel it was nice to receive some gifts.

Ok with 2 major cons
Overall the hotel is nice and clean, the beds and bathroom were comfortable and the location was great- just a few minutes walk from Universal.
HOWEVER- 2 huge cons!!!
1. The room DID NOT HAVE A CLOSET!!! or any other means for storing clothes or suitcases. And since we were 3 there was no available extra space in the room to lay them around
2. Their general ventilation system sucks - every afternoon the reception area wreaked of cut onions!!! The smell obviously had to do with the dining room located half a floor above the reception and was resolved within a few hours, but that was the aroma i was greeted wi when checking in. Honestly, if i hadnt had a prepaid reservation in not sure i would have stayed...
