This property is undergoing renovations. I heard an unhappy costumer complaint about the conditions of his room. However, my room was nice and clean. The carpets outside are old and have stains but that’s precisely why they are renovating, to make it better for costumers. I personally have no complaints.

This hotel is under renovations, so there is a little construction going on....no big deal. There is no room service due to COVID-19, but for price of the rooms compensates for that. The beds are really comfortable. This hotel is directly across the street from Universal Studios. My husband and I took a pleasant 10 minute walk straight to the park.
