Wifi is now free in the rooms and it was faster than expected. Stayed here several times and customer service always phenomenal. Cheaper than hotels on property but right across the street from parks .
1.) Make sure your room key is activated for the parking gates . 2.) Make sure your room is the view and bedding-type you requested, when reserved . 3.) Starbucks, off the main lobby, closes early.
The room was clean , you get free cookies , and there is free wifi & a Starbucks in the lobby. On top of that, it's right across from Universal Studios. The only negative is the $12/day parking charge.
Rooms are a little musky, no fans in the bathrooms either. Beds were comfortable , room was clean , wifii was free, and overall a great value . Be warned: $12 parking per day
Great location. Very close to universal and TGI Friday’s if you want to eat, there is also a Walgreens near by. There is a fee of $23 per night for parking , should be cheaper if you are pass holder
Front Deskman Bob Rocks! 15 something minute walk to city walk . Ale house & starbucks by the hotel Hotel parking is not free sadly you can park in best western beside the doubletree.
I cannot say enough good things about my stay. Bell hop, front desk valet. This was one delightful stay
Awesome, warm cookies at check-in! We even received a call to our room to make sure everything was to our liking here! Impressive service!
I stay here because it’s in walking distance of the park , and I don’t have to pay an arm and a leg to stay on the property. However every time I stay here, there is always a discrepancy.
Within walking distance of Universal . Good location for other attractions around the area.
Good location. Quiet hotel close to universal studios. 10 min walk to city street. Hotel is starting to show its age and needs a refresh.

Universal easy 10 min walk if u miss free shuttle . $5 for taxi . Yummy cookies . Wifi lil pricey . Signal wonky per my phone. Lol. Nice rooms.
We had a great stay here. Very clean but slow wifi . Convenient to Universal (walking distance ), International Drive, & outlets. .
Awesome hotel ! Cookies are to die for. Easy walk to Universal Parks & City Walk .
View over Universal Studios is nice... can see Hogwarts Castle at sunset . But the foreground is the Universal parking structure . Just have realistic expectations.
The walk to Universal , Islands of Adventure and City Walk is much shorter if you cut through the parking ramp by the City Walk exit!
Walk to Universal . It's only a 10 minute walk to Universal . The bus stops at at least three hotels .

Buy your tickets to Universal at the hotel . It's cheaper than at the entrance.
Pros - very close to universal/city walk. Nice views outside Windows. Cons - 17 dollar parking with broken parking gates . Funky old towel smell in room.
Hotel has a great location, but parking is a pain. Don't pay $20 to valet. No lounge for elite members. Internet is so slow, unless you pay $10 a day. Starbucks is always closed. Breakfast was good.
Make sure you check with hotel first before booking on priceline! You might not get the room you paid for. But manager Andrew Gumula made it right :)))
walk across the street to the park - extremely convenient!
Easy 15 minute walk to the parks . Or a $5 cab ride. Or a free (but scheduled) shuttle.
They give you a cookie when you check in. It's also WARM! <3
The cookies and the people at the front desk
Awesomeness
Make sure you hit the breakfast buffet and the hot tub whoo!
Every time the elevator reaches a floor, it makes farting noises
Self parking is $23 now
Room 310 is a great place to hang meat! Buuuuurrrrr!
This popular hotel right outside of Universal is getting a bit run down. Needs a renovation.
Good: Cookies & can walk to Universal . Bad:$9 to park/day and parking gates did not work at ALL, room keys didn't work 1/2 the time, nothing stayed in outlets, A/C sucked, room service took forever
BEWARE! !!!! $9.000 A DAY!!! Just to park ! And that is for the hotel guests!

Warm cookie when you check in. Yum.
