Sheraton Universal Hotel
"Great stay. Helpful staff. Good bar. The shuttle driver was not good at his job and upset people. Could be easily solved by counting those that get on and stopping at the number of seats. Instead he would allow a bunch of extra people every time and then have them all get off. Such a waste of time. ..."
