Tired and poor service
The hotel staff were not the friendliest, even to get basic service out of them you had to tip. The room was never cleaned before 5pm despite us asking for earlier cleaning and we agreed late check out but a maid came knocking to remove us from the room at 11am. Second time staying disappointing to see standards slipping- if it weren’t for the staff express passes we wouldn’t stay again

Expecting more. Thought the room and bathroom would be a little nicer than it was. One day was woken up by construction above our room. They knew there was construction in that room area. They shouldn’t of booked that room. Another night a guest opened our door to our room in the middle of the night. That’s unacceptable.

Great hotel if visiting Universal parks.
We loved this hotel. Very convenient to Universal parks by 3 minute walk or water taxi. Also the complementary express pass to the parks was a great bonus. Staff was very friendly. Hotel was very clean.

Service everywhere on property is efficient, friendly, reliable and professional. Amenities are plentiful. Safety and ease to park can not be matched. The pool is warm. Pool toys and activities are abundant (volleyball, slide, sandy area, zero entry, noodles, beach balls, billiards, ping pong, etc.

Brilliant property to stay at with easy access to the universal parks. Hurricane helene did dampen our stay though. We would have thought we would have the ability to change our express pass to a different day after our visit. This would have been a nice touch to make sure we made the most out of our express pass as there were a lot of weather delays due to the hurricane.

We usually love our stay at Hard Rock but this was a little disappointing. We requested a quiet room, however we were put in a room directly above the big air conditioning units which ran all night. We could sleep with ear plugs in, so didnt request to move but having requested a quiet room we were a little surprised! The room itself was also a bit tired looking and shabby which again is unusual for Hard Rock.
