Great staff at check in, our hotel suite is clean and comfortable, and we were able to do early check in as requested. We will stay here again the next time we visit Universal!
Wonderful stay! The rooms were incredibly spacious, basically an apartment. Hotel was clean and up to date. Staff were amazingly friendly, helpful and accommodating. Can't wait to come back!
Location was great! The staff was super welcoming and friendly! Shout to Vanessa who provided outstanding customer service! We will definitely be back!
Vanessa at fromt desk was amazing. Super nice and friendly, and also really helpful. I can definitely see that she loves what she does. Keep up the great work. The kindness truly made my stay.
This was a fabulous place to stay! It was spacious with a bedroom separated from the den and kitchen, quiet, and a kitchen with all the basic needs, I didn’t need to eat out once. I needed maintenance to fix something, and they were there within a few minutes. Vanessa and all those working the front desk were happy to help me with particular needs and seemed to want to do everything possible to make my stay perfect.
Vanessa was amazing throughout the whole stay! I loved my Starbucks coffee but Vanessa she made my stay their amazing! I cannot speak about her enough. The rooms where beautiful and cozy! It was perfect! Was in walking distance of everything!
Best think about this place is location, location, just across the street of restaurants and other entertaiment spots. Rooms are fair, quite acomodating, and more important reasonable priced. I definitely recommend this place for your stay at Orlando area.
Room was clean. Staff if amazing. Love that they have starbucks coffee and their hot sandwich for breakfast is very good. rooms are very spacious and good. hotel is a small one and is infront of orlando eye. would stay again!
