    The property required significant maintenance and was not very clean. The toilet was difficult to flush, and we frequently had to renew the hotel key card due to issues with the magnetic strip.

    We visited for EDC weekend, and the location proved to be quite central to many attractions. With numerous restaurants nearby, we found it convenient to get around without needing to rent a car or rely on Uber. Added bonus, they provided complementary breakfast.

    The travel/ timeshare employees very pushy despite staying I was not interested several times. One woman walked right up to me after telling her no previously while trying to get my child to the elevator. She then looked at me as if I did something wrong by saying no thank you the rest of the evening.

    Location was great unfortunately traveling for medical needs for my sick child on her birthday during a busy holiday weekend.

    In the lobby there was a person trying to get you to participate in something like a “ time share “ but when we said no he was very pushy. I didn’t like that after a long day of travel and we just wanted to check into our room.

    The location was really good. Staff was nice.

    The tap in the bathroom didn't function properly, and the Wi-Fi was too slow.

    For breakfast, they use regular cutlery and plates (not plastic), which is eco-friendly. The omelette made by the chef was excellent.

    The room was not cleaned up properly. Pretty dirty floors, the bathroom is quite old and used. I had tried to use the fan to heat the room a bit during the first day of the stay, but something in the heater started smelling like something burnt and the CO2 detector went off wailing for a few minutes even though there was no visible smoke, just the smell. No one came to look into it though. Was not able to use the heater since.

    The location is pretty nice, just a 5-minute walk from a bus station from where a bus takes you directly to the city walk. The personnel was very responsive, helpful, and kind. The room was spacious with a large comfortable bed. Good that there was a coffee machine that could boil water for tea also.

    The room had like a humid smell. Nothing too bad, but it was noticeable when we arrived to the room and came back after being away the whole day. When the AC was on the smell disippated a bit. It did not affect too much. We found a cockroack in the bathroom, like a 1cm cockroach. I think itcame most likely from the shower drain, since it was right besides the shower.

    Great Location really close to universal studios, Close to restaurants in the area still by walking distance. The beds were very comfortable, good overall cleanliness. The staff was helpful but not so friendly. Easy and fast check in and check out. I filed a noise complaint ant it was attended right away in the middle of the night.

    The room was a little dated.

    It had onsite restaurants. The food was good. The rate was reasonable. It is within walking distance of activities, restaurants and stores. Universal is about a mile. Plus there are side walks everywhere. The staff was great.
