Loved by guests
"Located within a very short 5 minute walk (or a complimentary shuttle ride that will probably take longer ) this business class hotel offers awesome park view rooms, an updated interior, safe (but expensive) parking, good service and good f&b options."
"My kids really loved the pool area as well along with the various games they have down there like ping pong, giant connect four, and giant chess."
"The room was clean and spacious, and within walking distance of Universal Studios."

Pros
Situated on elevated ground with panoramic views of Universal Studios, Hollywood Hills, and San Fernando Valley
Multiple dining venues including an award-winning restaurant in a polished steel and glass atrium
24-hour business center with comprehensive event planning services
Hiking and biking trails accessible in the surrounding area
Cons
6 miles distance from Hollywood Burbank Airport
10.5 miles from downtown's 7th St/Metro Center
“For families targeting Universal Studios, the location can't be beat, and the free shuttle is a lifesaver after a long day. I especially appreciate the reported attentiveness of the staff; those small touches make a big difference during a trip. Factor in the event spaces, and this becomes a compelling option for larger gatherings, too.”

8.0/10
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.
