All the money went to redecorating the lobby. Rooms were terrible, beds were even worse - especially if you're trying to share them, because that's not feasible. Staff was super friendly and sharkys food was amazing!

Frequently stay here when we go to Universal. But this time it was easy 15 min drive to camping world. Clean room. The only thing was that they charged an early check in fee which has never happened before.

This hotel is most valuable when you have a trip to Universal Studios, because it is right next to one of the resorts (Dockside Inn) that you can walk to and get a shuttle to the park which they get every 10 minutes so that way you don’t have to pay for parking. I’m happy to have found a hotel that takes 18 that’s right by Universal, because their resorts require to be 21 to check in.
