Older hotels aren't everyone's cup of tea. Like most older hotels it could use a few upgrades, but it was extremely clean, dining and theme park were very convenient, and I felt safe. The staff were wonderfully attentive and kind. I would definitely visit again!

The attendant at the desk was wonderful. He was very personable willing to help. He guided us on different options to do while we stayed there. When I asked how far of a walk universal studio was he pulled up Google Maps and walked me through. He advised us to take the shuttle, which was on the way to universal studios.

Reasonably priced and within walking distance of Universal Studios. Property met or exceeded expectations for sure! They were willing to work with my 18-year-old child who was there for spring break with friends. Very accommodating and understanding and very much appreciated.

Thank you for your review. The deposit authorizations are voided within 7 days of check out date. Please note that you booked a room in a very expensive area. The rate may seem high but compared to our competition, the rates are actually pretty reasonable. We have a lot of repeat customers who stay with us for our clean rooms, free parking, free morning refreshments, and unbeatable location for Universal Studios (3 min walk to Universal Studios free shuttle station).

Parking was small, person at desk was rude about how we were parking (we were not done parking yet and he mentioned that we need to make sure our vehicle was all the way in the lines) my vehicle is a ford explorer xlt and barely fit in the lines. Room was so small for a family 2 queen room, felt like a closet. Shower looked dirty, and needs upgraded, did not take a shower but if I did would definitely wear flip flops . Bed and pillows were hard. Toilet ran for a while after each flush. Could hear walking, moving furniture, etc from room above us. One of the beds was right up against the wall which made it very uncomfortable to sleep as I hit the wall with my hand a couple times as I slept. There was exposed wires from the wall next to the other bed. The phone in room was not plugged in, the cord for the phone and the alarm clock were too tangled together. Air conditioner did not work right. Do not recommend staying here.

I find your reviews pretty unfair and inaccurate. We have a lot of repeat customers who come back for our clean rooms, free parking, free morning refreshments, free Wi-Fi, and unbeatable location for Universal Studios - 3 min walk to Universal Studios free shuttle station. Our parking lot is meant for small / compact vehicles but we do our best to accommodate larger vehicles as well. Since we offer free parking, our parking lot does tend to get busy. We checked the AC in your room and it is working perfectly fine. I suspect that you did not set the AC setting correctly. If you had called the front desk, they would have been happy to assist you. Some of our rooms are cozier than other rooms. We do have larger rooms but they do cost more money than the smaller rooms. It seems that your expectations might have been a bit too high. You booked a 2.5-star hotel in a very expensive area. Next time, I suggest that you book a room at Hilton or Sheraton where they may be able to live up to your expectations.

Sewage smell from shower, AC non stop
We booked a 3 night stay and after the first night we left. The AC kept kicking on all night even tho we had it off. We had to unplug it just to keep it off. The sink wouldn't drain at all. The shower would smell of sewage after using it for a minute. Staff was friendly and nice. We opted to not give them a chance to change our room and just ate the cost of the 2 nights we didn't stay.

I am very surprised by your unfair and inaccurate review. Most of our guests are repeat customers who come back for our clean rooms, free parking, free morning refreshments, and unbeatable location for Universal Studios - 3 min walk to Universal's shuttle station. As you admitted in your review, we did offer to change your room but you declined. It appears to me that your plans probably changed and you decided to check out after 2 nights but you were not able to get a refund due to the hotel cancellation / modification policy so you put us this unfair and inaccurate review! In addition, you used the room for two days and left at 630 pm on the second day and did not complain to the front desk about the clogged sink nor the bad smell in the shower. we just checked the room and the sink drain is wide open and no bad smell from the shower!

Disappointed
We chose this hotel because it was close to Universal Studios. There were 4 of us in our group - Adult son & girlfriend, My teen grandson & I, If we would have gotten a room that looked like the picture, it might have worked, with the extra couch and 2 queen beds. We were given a very small room with 2 double beds with a small nightstand in between, the ceiling light was the only light. No way we could all fit in that tiny room with any comfort. It was was clean enough, but very bare bones. I couldn't get comfortable there, we didn't even try to fit in the beds, I just booked a room somewhere else and left. We left so fast that forgot our dinner that was in the refrigerator. I was too tired to deal with it, so we just packed up. I am not sure if we could get our money back since we did check in....bummed.

I find your review very unfair and inaccurate. We have 6 different room types with different room lay out and different bedding. You booked a Two Double Bed room type and that is exactly what you got. If you had bothered to look at the double bed room types, you would have realized that the room looks exactly the same as the photos. You must have looked at a bigger room photos but booked the less expensive room. Since you booked through a third party, we had no control over what you might have been told but it is not the hotel fault. Our records indicate that you checked in and used the room. No notes about you complaining or checking out early!

Convenient and Safe
Glad I picked this place over the “fancier” and more expensive option close to Universal Studios. Very friendly staff who share some tips on walking to the shuttle to Universal nearby. Felt safe both nights with my young kids. Several places to eat within steps from the Inn. Will definitely be staying there again the next time we come to Universal.

Contacted the hotel several weeks in advance and asked about an getting an early check in, was told that was possible and it would be $20 per hour. Asked for a 12PM check in time. Showed up a 1 and our room was not ready yet. The tv in our room did not work. The person working the counter mentioned that there was something wrong with the cable box and he had a call with the cable company to have time come out. We did not have cold water at all. The sink only had hot water as did the shower. This was a big deal as this is very unsafe and we had young children in the room. Parking was ridiculous. Spaces were too small and at night they let people park where they are blocking cars in. When we went to leave the day we checked out. We were blocked in and it delayed our leaving by almost 30 minutes while we had to wait for cars to get moved. All in all I did not like this hotel and would not stay here again.

As far as early check-in, it is always based on availability and we do our best to have the room ready but no hotel in the world can guarantee early check-in. Our records indicate that you did check in early! There was an issue with the cable company which we can not control but we fixed your TV within an hour once we contacted the cable company. Our parking does get busy because unlike our competition we offer free parking to our guests!
