Spartan

Pretty Spartan place. More like a motel with fancy marketing than a real hotel. Nice lobby, but very slow check in, a rather indifferent staff, and pretty basic uncarpeted rooms. Everything worked, the shower was good, all was relatively clean (though strong disinfectant smells throughout). But keep price-quality in mind when you book. Don't pay hotel prices.

Needs to do better

Unfortunately, this trip was for my daughter's birthday going to Universal Studios so the location was a 15-minute walking distance to the shuttle. No need to pay for parking so that's a plus. However there were a few issues starting with the elevator was out of service on arrival. Having to take up luggage up the stairwell to the 3rd floor with younger children. The room initially looked good however, there was hair behind the sink from either previous guest or cleaning staff. The hotel did mention was going under renovation so some of the areas were to be expected. It then rained and started leaking through the room. Had to place a trash can underneath to catch the rain which left a huge water mess in the kitchen area that spread to most of the floor. Having an electric vehicle and expecting to use the EV charge the hotel provides wasn't operational, the pool was very small in an open area and not well maintained nor heated. Outside of the location in relation to Universal Studios was a fairly disappointing stay.

The staff was very friendly and the rooms were clean. However, there were minor repairs needed in the room, the ac was very loud and the beds would make a loud rattling noise when moving.

The property is poorly maintained. Upon checking in I was told the elevators were broken and had to use the stairs. No help was offered with our bags. The room was sparse and clean. The mattress and pillows could be replaced. Not enough towels were provided and the staff was polite but hesitant to provide more. The shower faucet seemed previously repaired but worked. The AC fan was so loud it made getting to sleep difficult and woke me when it cycled on. Parking was awkward with most spots requiring blocking in another car. Keys were to be left at the front desk else your car would be towed. The one EV charger present did not work and the other spots had only wires. The hotel charges a daily fee to provide financial support to the staff. Shouldn’t this be the responsibility of the employer? It seems they are too busy chasing profits.

Where to begin? Immediately after booking, I received an email that there were some renovations going on. They would do their best to make sure it didn’t impact us and thanks for our consideration. As we booked this day before, we figured we’d try it and see what it looked like. Here’s what that meant: no working elevator, and there’s no porter so carry your bags. Also, the room did not have working heat or AC. They brought in a portable AC unit which barely kept it at about 76°, so it was better simply to open the door and let the outside air come in at night. Since they had a space heater sitting there as well, it appears they’re not going to have heat anytime soon for the coming winter. The staff was fine, the bar was fine, the website said nothing about parking, which is convenient and covered and on property. It is walking distance to Universal, the Baked Potato, and several restaurants. But, at nearly $400 a night, it was overpriced for the value I received.

The room was super clean and huge! We loved the separate living room area and used it as sleeping quarters for our daughter. The air conditioning was also powerful and so comfortable! The only complaint I have is that the room smelled heavily of bleach when we first arrived. However, that dissipated by the evening!

We stayed for one night and thought about leaving. The entire hotel on the 3rd floor where we stayed smelled like a urinal cake and bleach. The showers were a mess to use even with the instructions provided…iv never used a shower that had pictures on how to operate it. It’s like a motel 6 that got a fresh coat of paint and then charged 350 for a night because they are nearish to Universal Studios. The staff were very friendly so that’s where the stars come from.

We stayed for one night only. We were surprised at how spacious the room was, with 2 king sized beds, which was perfect for our group! Check in was a breeze, even got coupon for 2 free drinks at the bar. Location is perfect, close to Universal Studios. Staff was friendly. Only hiccup was the phone in the room was not working, could not call the front desk.

It’s about a 20-minute walk to Universal Studios—you go under the highway and then up a hill. You can walk, bike, or scooter there. Our room had a kitchen, but it was completely empty—no dishes, cookware, or tableware. We had to request everything and then wait for it to arrive. We chose this hotel mainly for the location (close to Universal) and the option to cook, but the area itself isn’t great. Still, if you’re going to Universal Studios, you save quite a bit by staying here.
