“I appreciate the easy access to Universal's parks via frequent shuttles and the convenience of having a Starbucks and a bar right there. The coastal theme offers a nice change of pace, and the family suites, complete with kitchenettes, make longer stays much easier; it's clearly designed with families and groups in mind. A solid choice for a Universal vacation, prioritizing convenience and value.”

GREAT stay, a real gem!!!

quick shuttle useful microwave handy laundry

I found the shuttle service QUICK and convenient. It runs frequently to Universal CityWalk. My room included a useful microwave and fridge. The hotel also has laundry facilities, handy for refreshing our clothes after long days.

The check-in line was fairly long upon my arrival, but the staff worked hard to keep things moving.

quick shuttle service convenient souvenir shop great food plain room thin walls next door conversation

The hotel offered AMAZING transportation to the parks. The shuttle service was quick. I also appreciated the souvenir shop and dining options. The food was great.

The room was quite plain. I expected MORE for the price I paid. The walls seemed paper thin. I could easily hear conversations next door, a bit annoying.
