The room was spacious and clean (i was happy with the size). the hotel offers a shuttle service to universal studios. It was convenient. the gift shop provided a large variety of items.
The water pressure in the shower was low. It was hard to rinse off. the towels were thin (i prefer thicker towels). I often had to wait.
