Convenient to UC

They are working on it. From the parking to the ‘resort fee’ way too much on top of the room rate. Location to Universal City is the selling point.

WORST HOTEL EVER. This place was not clean (floors were sticky), toilet wasn’t flushing as soon as we initially used it. We tried to ask staff to fix it and for two days, they did not even try to help us. We had to use the toilets in the lobby because it did not flush and kept overflowing. They were rude and careless. I talked to the staff nicely and three of the front desk ladies were being rude and speaking another language to each other. The doors did not lock and outlets were not even working. I have never stayed in a hotel as bad as this, this is the first time I ever had to write a review because it’s THAT bad.

Though I appreciated the friendly customer service and the upgrade to a Suite, the room was very cold when we got there. The shower water pressure was low. Not to mention how complicated it was to figure out how to turn the shower on and off. The bathroom needs ventilation. It smelled of mildew, the shower liner was too short, which led to water all over the floor. Overall though, very convenient location for our trip to Universal Studios. Neighborhood is rough. Lots of homeless sleeping on the ground.

The hotel wasn't horrible. However, it was under construction and we didn't get warning until after it was too late to change or cancel reservation. We had some strange plumbing issues and staff had to over the instruct us on how to fix the shower. It also had hidden fees. They did not take a deposit, which was nice, but there was an additional fee for parking and another weird service fee of 20$. So be prepared to pay another 55$ minimum out of pocket. They also made it sound like Universal Studios was in walking distance. This is not the case. It is over a 20 minute walk to the park. They did let us know that there is a shuttle you can walk to that is a little closer that would take us to the park, but they don't offer any shuttle services themselves. All in all it wasn't a bad hotel, but I think with hidden fees, not being in walking distance, no shuttle and the construction going on, I would have paid even a tad bit more to be at a different hotel. I would be lying if I said I wasn't slightly bummed about this hotel. Next time we will book with someone else.

A great location but overpriced and misleading

Stayed for a couple of nights. Why do you have a service charge, this part is a money grab as you pay for something that your accomodation fee should include. This fee is absolutely a waste of money. It is a great location for universal and a 5 minute walk to the free shuttle bus and to the metro to take you straight to Hollywood…you don’t need an uber…also how about you tell everyone BEFORE you pay big money for accommodation for a place that is undergoing renovations rather than asking for forgiveness AFTER you pay for the accommodation you are selling on the sites… this is misleading and dishonest… you need to do better…also you hallways are putrid get them steam cleaned.
