Wouldn’t recommend staying here
Our stay here was extremely uncomfortable. Our room was less than desirable. Everything felt damp. Then, there’s this smell in the room that almost leaned towards there bing mold somewhere. In the bathroom, we found a dead roach behind the toilet. We stayed out of the room as long as possible our entire because of the conditions.

Below average accommodations
Bed wasn't comfortable, a/c unit controls didn't work properly and unit made too much noise. Bathtub was extremely slippery and there are no grab bars or any safety features. Parking lot was very narrow with poor signage and two way traffic forces you to stop and pull over to let other vehicle pass before proceeding

The staff was super friendly open arrival. The room was clean and ready to go. We walked to Universal each day, but there is a shuttle. The free parking at the hotel is a huge plus. They have a little place to eat and get water. I would highly recommend staying here. I gave it a good overall instead of excellent because the walls are thin and if you have loud neighbors, you hear everything.
