Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was quite enjoyable, especially for its closeness to Universal Studios—just a short walk away. The rooms were spacious and generally clean, though they lacked sufficient lighting and some amenities. The service was very accommodating, making our experience better despite a few minor hiccups. However, I found the lack of in-room conveniences somewhat disappointing. Overall, given the price, it offered decent value for money, especially with the accessibility to the theme park.
