“Staying here places you enviably close to Universal Orlando, a genuine perk enhanced by on-site benefits; I appreciate that they provide varied dining options, from quick Starbucks runs to dedicated pizza. While the hotel caters well to families and business travelers alike with its ample meeting space, it's the proximity to the parks and the promise of warm cookies that really sweetens the deal for me.”

My stay was really enjoyable, with clean and spacious rooms that made for a comfortable retreat after long days at Universal Studios. The staff provided exceptional service, making us feel welcomed and valued throughout our stay. On the downside, I found the dining prices to be quite high, especially for breakfast, which I think could be improved. But overall, the location is fantastic, just a short walk to the parks, making it a great choice for visiting Universal.
