Great room for the price having a six person suite. Check in is at 4. Never got a room until almost 5. Next morning the housekeeper we past room and I asked can I please have 2 extra towels. Was told had to call front desk and ask, i informed her that the phone in our room was broke and didnt work. She continued to tell me that she can’t give me towels because i need permission from front desk. I didn’t know needed permission for extra towels when I am paying for a room. So overall. The beds were extremely comfortable and room was clean and spacious for my family. Kids even had their own room.some staff members need to learn customer service a little better

Would Stay Here Again Anytime!

The entire place was clean and welcoming. From the lobby to the restaurant and cafe, to the room. Staff was very nice and helpful. The food at the hotel was great! The indian coffee was delicious. Very close walk to Universal and a few other places to eat. I would defiantly stay here again over the near by hotels.

The restaurant breakfast is pricey for how mediocre of a selection it is. Coffee was awful, and a side order of 2 tiny pancakes almost $6…..not worth eating breakfast there. The shuttle service is convenient. Only downfall for Epic last pick up is at 8:40, they should add another later slot at least if it closes at 10p.

Good location near Universal CityWalk. Because the path makes a big L and crosses a pedestrian bridge it took 25 mins each way. Hotel and staff were great. My 2 little quibbles were that the room doors are not self closing and could be accidentally left open. And when taking a shower the bottom of the bathtub was slippery. But good property at a good price. Would definitely return.

The staff were lovely, good location to the parks, very good Indian restaurant with value for money dishes. There was a shuttle service to and from Universal studios which was very convenient. The room was clean but the AC was leaking. There were wet towels out side the door and the leaking went down onto the stairs so as you walked down the stairs you had to dodge water falling on your head or clothes. Not pleasant but also dangerous as someone is likely to slip and fall. The room's front door had a gap so you might get visitors coming under the door and greeting you in the morning. I understand, it's an old hotel but perhaps needs a few updates now.
