We loved staying here! I have two teens that loved the pools and the ping pong tables. The food was also very good in the food court and has a good variety! The rooms were super cute and clean and the beds comfortable! We had easy shuttle service to Universal and will be staying here again!

Clean rooms, friendly staff, super affordable. Wish they had an actual restaurant on site though. The cafeteria style was alright but a sit down restaurant would have been great.

Check in was simple and easy, staff very friendly. Didn’t enjoy the onsite food hall, seem cheap food but pay a premium for it, the hotel are happy for you to get food delivered to the hotel which a lot of people did. Kids enjoyed the pool. Plenty of places local to walk to and also free shuttle to universal studios
