I found the room had a damp musty odor. I had to sleep with sheet over face to not smell it. Also we had no water to shower that evening or the next morning. Hot water did not work and the manager avoided anything about a refund.

Only two out of five elevators were working and we are on the sixth floor so that way you said about an hour of our time believe it or not. They weren’t keeping up on cleaning the hallways and main areas. And the parking fee was ridiculous. It was over $50 for one day in one hour. The only pluses it’s walkable to Universal Studios, but I think I’d rather pick a better property further away and just drove in as Universal Studios parking might be less expensive.

First, we got hit with an $85 for the two nights. Then, $27 for each day parking. The price doesn't justify anymore. Need to pay attention to these before you book. Reception staff were great... very professional. But Cleaning cars hanging out by the elevators all the time, and staff chatting personal & loud on the phone throughout. Last but not least, we noticed the upgraded rooms - which were nice - but not a fully clean job - edges, behind furniture and bathrooms are professionally upgraded... openings on the walls, still concrete behind beds, we even killed a small roach the first day.

Bad

This hotel is close to universal but is poorly maintained. The lobby is clean and up to date but don’t let that fool you. The hallways have a strong musk smell. The rooms are outdated and not maintained. We stayed here because we spent most of our time outside of the room but if you want to enjoy your hotel do not stay here.
