Understaffed for check-in, making the process to last more than 1 hour at midnight, the conditions of the rooms are poor, and everything is breaking apart, smells old, and the breakfast is subpar, and now they charge the parking!!!! really? On the good side, the sheets and towels were very clean

the room was decent, the “free” breakfast that’s not free because that’s the resort fee, was terrible. very few options. not worth it if you looking for a good free breakfast hotel. if you room says parking includes, be sure to screenshot it and save the image, because they will try to charge you $15 more at the property for it.

So...the front desk checked us into a third floor in a building with a broken elevator. And the hotel was practically empty. Why? The room was so substandard. I had to fight to get the sink stop to open so it would stop collecting dirty water. It was so stuck. We found a roach in the bathroom. And I HATE roaches. The only thing this hotel ha going for it is that it's close to Universal and offers shuttle. Do yourself a favor...spend a little more and get a nicer place. At least a clean one.
The sink stop didn't work properly and dirty water couldn't go down the drain.
We found a roach in the bathroom. I could hardly sleep that night thinking there could be more in the room.

Everything was nice, pool was clean and warm, staff were great. SUPER close to the universal parks, if you don’t take the shuttle I recommend an uber it was only $7 each way to and from the park.

During our recent stay, we encountered several issues. The door did not close securely, requiring multiple attempts to latch properly. Furthermore, the cleanliness of the room did not meet our expectations, and the service provided was unsatisfactory. We were also disturbed by the housekeeping staff, who knocked on our door and entered the room twice before the scheduled check-out time, and subsequently contacted us via telephone, which created a sense of urgency.
