We felt accommodations could have been better, rooms we're clean but had to ask for allot of things. Allot of food options but not pocket friendly when it's only place in a hurry.. passing for parking we thought was a bit pricey bc they didn't shuttle past universal to other parks. Then you have to pay to be shuttled if you didn't want to drive so delayed the purpose, more complicated that anything.. over all ok

No me gusto que cobran el parqueo y caro, que cobran fee que no tienen ninguna lógica, si ya yo pague la habitación y la devolví con todo como la recibí porque me cobran “fees”. El desayuno se suponía que era incluido pues eso decía cuando uno hace la reserva luego cuando llegas al hotel te dicen que tienes que pagarlo, entonces que pongan que tiene desayuno incluido pues es algo engañoso. La limpieza no era la mejor, las alfombras tiene mucha peste a humedad y se ven sucias.

I would not stay here again, suite was not in the best condition. There was a hole on the wall as if someone punched it, we bought cleaning products to clean before using the bathroom, we had small children. TV’s didn’t work properly, fridge didn’t get cold enough, hallway was also not in the best condition. There was a bloody bandaid near the bed my child slept on. Overall rating should be zero if I could give it a zero star.

The property was good, a place to sleep is all we needed it for and it served that purpose. My friend had to change rooms due to smell or needing updated. My suite was good! But clearly the area is popular due to amusement parks so expected what we got for price.

The lobby was nice and decorated beautifully for Christmas. From there everything went downhill. They wanted to charge me extra for checking in before 4. I asked if I could check in now but get my room later since I would be back late and they said no, I had to pay an extra $25 for that. When I returned late at night I was had a surprise extra $27 fee for parking which I had to pay through a scan code. She gave me the paper with instructions but couldn’t walk me through it. She told me everything is on the paper. The halls were dark and musty. The elevators look like if they are falling apart. The beds are tiny. The bathroom has rust stains. They only left three towels for 4 adults. The AC was off. Worst Holiday Inn stay ever.

After a long day at Disney World, it would’ve been nice to check into a decent room. Unfortunately, that was not the case. We needed to use the restroom, but we’re not able to because when we flushed the toilet, the first time, it overflowed. Then we observed that the bedding had gigantic in the sheets on both beds. We reported the problems to maintenance immediately however, nobody came to the room, so we complained again, and then we got supposedly upgraded to another room, which was not the case. As for the second room, the furniture was damaged. We did submit pictures to management about the first room. We will not say this hotel again.

The best part about this hotel is the proximity to the Universal Studios parks. It is a $6 Uber ride away. You can also safely walk there with sidewalks and streetlights everywhere. The shuttle they have runs very infrequently, and we only used it once. The hallway on floor 9 smells heavily like gym socks. The hallways don't seem to be vacuumed well or often. The room smelled musty/mildewy. Blasting the a/c did not help with the odor. Anything metal in the room showed signs of rust. Ex. For hinges, bathroom pipes and fixtures. The windows were very dirty on the outside. If you want a cheap place to stay only for a night or 2, and don't mind odors, this could be your place. Personally, I don't think I'd go back again.
