Guests report occasional maintenance and comfort issues such as dated decor, inconsistent HVAC or water pressure, noisy or thin walls, and worn mattresses. Some also mention odors, stains, or pests, and a few felt housekeeping missed details. The pool and hot tub are popular, but the water can feel cold and bar or Starbucks hours may be limited. Expect a convenient base for Universal with solid service and comfort, tempered by higher costs and occasional hiccups.

Great hotel for universal . Check in fast and quick. Staff very good and polite . We avoided the restaurants as found a few locally which were fantastic and 50%of the cost. Starbucks in the hotel was a treat 10 mins walk to the park . Parking on site and very easy. Pool was busy but the jacuzzi from the 8th floor looked very dirty. Might have been an illusion but very murky! Eat outside of the park!!!

After traveling around and seeing where the other hotels I considered staying were located, I was very glad I had chosen this hotel!! The staff were very nice, the hotel was clean and bright, the pool was clean and fun and opened until midnight. The bad thing was, my room was very cold; controls did not work and the fan blew on high for the 5-day stay. I reported it twice and was told someone would come, but no one ever came. The parking was much too expensive in my opinion! Overall though, very nice and I would stay here again!

Was there for universal studios with the kids. Family of four. Very friendly upon arrival. Valet and self parking is kind of pricey at $60 per day, but overall worth the money. Drinks in hotel are pricey as well…so be prepared to fork out $21 for one cocktail plus tip. Free shuttle to the studios and shops, Easy walking as well. The pool Has a bar and is clean, not huge resort style but big enough. Overall 5 stars.

Nice hotel with a 5-6 minute walk to the park and amenities. However, there was poor staffing in the pool bar area, and we had to wait in line for more than 15 minutes for a drink or snack; they just had 1 overwhelmed employee running the outside bar and food. In the room, the shower had so much water pressure that it was painful to take a shower, and when you switched to the hand shower, the water stream was really soft, and water was leaking everywhere. We were there for 2 nights only, but I expected a more comfortable stay for the prices the hotel charges for the food, drinks, and room.

Booked this hotel for our trip. Mainly to visit Universal Studios and attend the KPOP concert although it was a 35 minutes away. Hotel is right next to Universal, you can walk there with no issues. Bus runs every 10-15 minutes stopping on a total of two hotels. Staff was great. The only complaint I have, parking is so darn expensive. It's $50/per night for self parking and about $60 for valet.

Hotel and staff were great, but the pool was cooooooold. We brought the kids to town for Universal Studios and wanted to enjoy a swim at the end of a long day on our feet, but we could only stay in the pool for 10-15 minutes before we had to get in the hot tub. If they kept it 5 degrees warmer, this would be a great hotel

Overall great! 2 minor complaints - vending machines for food options on the property were limited to bubble tea. Also, we went for coffee at 1035am at the “Starbucks” in the lobby and it had just closed. Not sure why a coffee shop in a hotel venue would need to close at 10:30….crazy. Other than that, wonderful stay.

We drove 10 hours to get here to the hotel just to find out that the room was not ready. I was told I would be updated not once did I receive an email or a text message, the whole day pass thing open to the public is a disaster The pool area should only be open to guests took two hours to get our extremely overpriced disgrace of food that we ordered, the room had a terrible stench of body odor and cigarette smoke. The toilet was half ass cleaned pubic hair in the bathtub sheets were dirty. Everyone in the entire hotel either hates their job or is terribly paid not one happy face around if you hate your job find something else to do. I definitely should’ve booked the Sheraton. I would never recommend this hotel to any of my friends or family or ever stay here again.

Not really walkable & not great food options around the hotel. I suppose it would be convenient for those going to Universal. My room was fairly nice and a good size, if not a little dated. Our 2nd floor room (lobby is on the 3rd floor) also looked into a back road of the hotel that looks like it was used for valet parking; just wish we had a nicer view. The hotel is located in a good spot for those going to Hollywood Bowl (less than a 10 minute drive away). Probably a little overpriced for what it is, but still a pretty decent hotel.

Check in stated 4pm, so we arrived to the front desk at 3:50 to get the process started. The woman helping us said we would receive a text when the room was ready. 4:30 comes around and still no text. We went back and forth trying to get checked in which was a hassle, but finally got our room. Something seemed off about the reason for the late check in and had we not gone up to ask for our room, who knows when we would’ve gotten our room. Bad start. We then ordered room service at 9pm (menu states they deliver till 11pm). Our food arrived at 9:40pm cold, hard bun on the burger, over cooked chewy chicken, and soggy fries which we asked to be crispy. We called back at 9:50ish to get the issue fixed and they said they would call back. They call back AFTER 10pm telling us the kitchen just closed so we’re basically just SOL and had to deal with it (no compensation was offered either). So I call back later to address the 11pm delivery stated on the menu and they said during the slow season they decided to change the hours for dining. Might be something you should tell guests at check in??? Mind you, we called before 10pm and waited for the call back which came after 10pm. I had to ask for compensation for a 0/10 meal that was inedible. This was supposed to be my boyfriend & I’s valentines trip and it was horrible. We debated staying somewhere cheaper but turns out paying over $300/night doesn’t help you out either. Nobody seemed to care. I’ll never stay here again.

Great location to Universal Studios. At check-in the receptionist wasn’t very informative on what is included with your room. Called operator and found out breakfast was included with room. Operator did upgrade from continental to full breakfast due to not being told by front desk. Appreciated that. Shower door didn’t seal properly when closed. Bathroom floor flooded every time showered. All in all, decent hotel. Would stay again.
