4.5 star ratingThe rooms look like they were just renovated, and were much nicer than when I stayed there last year. The staff was really friendly and knowledgeable. Paying for parking is ridiculous, this is not NYC!!15 February 2011
4.5 star ratingThis hotel was perfectly positioned for visiting Seaworld, Aquatica and Universal, it was a little paradise at the quiet end of international drive. Fabulous facilities we will go back again and again. Some of the front desk staff were a little unprofessional and could benefit from some training but this did not create any problems for us during our stay.Pebbles07 May 2011
4.5 star ratingParking and getting around the grounds is inconvenient. Entrance to the hotel from the street is awkward.17 July 2011
3.0 star ratingDa die Hotelzimmer keine zu öffnenden Fenster besitzen, werden diese nur über die Klimaanlagen durch "Frischluft" versorgt. Leider hatte unser Zimmer einen extrem beissenden Schimmelgeruch. Wir konnten jedoch das Zimmer anstandslos tauschen. 28 May 2013
5.0 star ratingValue for money. Near to universal.Shuttle to Universal have to be book a day before due to limited availability.10 August 2013
5.0 star ratingThis hotel is all about location! Fantastic access to Universal Studios, within walking distance Nothing to say that is negative... Possibly the only 'niggle' was not always having English breakfast tea replaced in the room daily... Camomile kept popping up!! But after a call to reception H'ch26 October 2013
1.5 star ratingCan't say anything positive about this hotel.Worst experience of a hotel I have ever experienced. Hotel was unclean and was not what we expected. The air conditioning was very loud and a smell of gas omitted from it at times. They had a fire drill at 8 am in the morning which we thought was ridiculous. We were charged 200 dollars on check in just in case of incidentals!!! Also charged 100 dollars to park the car even though universal was a 20 minute walk not right at the gate as advertised. Staff were very rude and unhelpful.Anonymous 14 October 2014
5.0 star ratingWhen I checked in I was given a cookie, which was very much appreciated as I had just gotten in off a flight. Room was very big and bathroom was also big, which is rare in many hotels these days. Had a nice view out my window and could see parts of Universal Studios. Quality of the hotel was way above the price I paid for it, will 100% return when I visit Orlando again. Only negative thing is that the Starbucks in the lobby closes at 3, which is around the same time as check in.Anonymous 12 May 2015
4.5 star ratingThis Hotel i got at a good price, and i was extremely good value. This hotel is good. Get room at high floors, because the hotel is really surrounded by noisy traffic. Are you a light sleeper, bring ear plugs. I got a 11th floor room, and it was great. Away from noisy traffic, and fast internet, and free coffee at room. Hotel is very close to the parks of Universal, wich is why most visitors come to Orlando. Theres a 20 minut walk from the hotel to the gates of both parks. Hotel sells tickets for the parks, but check the homepages for prices first, because on the webpage you have the best offers.There alotta traffic in the surroundings.ThemePark Sam02 June 2015
