Our only negative comment is that we waitedin line for an hour to check in. If you book direct you can check in online. It was easy to find the room. The room was clean. The hotel was surprisingly quiet. There is a good variety of healthy food options. The shuttle to Universal was not worth waiting for if you're entering the park early (we were going to take the shuttle at 7:15 AM) The hotel across the street offers a water taxi that will take you to the park without waiting. The pool, bowling and arcade are clean, fun amenities. We would stay here again.

Hotel was functional. We arrived late afternoon and planned to go to the theme park early in the morning before opening for the whole day. We needed to check out at 11 am so in practice needed to vacate the room before 7PM and get ready for our flight in the car...
