The property Manager was friendly and attentive to all our requests, the room was cleaned and bed made daily by the staff and the location was minutes from Universal Studios which was nice. Will stay again when in the area.
We didn't stay. The place is not suitable for families. I wish I didn't have to write this but if can prevent another mother and kids from being stranded

Clean room, when checking in friendly staff, we stayed 2 nights and house keeping did not clean the room was unaware we we needed to request it so last day to check out we had to go to lobby and request clean towels so we could shower. Yes parking a bit of a tight squeeze but manageable we have a mini suv, overall great location not to far from universal studios, clean room upon arrival.
Just the broken microwave, but they replaced it right away and the tight parking. But the close proximity from Universal Studios was great.

Went to Universal Studios with my son. This place is super close maybe 2 miles, was clean and did the job for us. Parking is tight, and the bed was hard hard.
Great location,. Room seemed recently refurbished. Fresh appearance inside.clean, new looking bathroom. Walking distance to many very nice restaurants and bars. Parking is extremely tight.
