We loved the room, however the restaurant was not what i saw on line and never got to eat at the hotel. things not opened past 4, only pizza option was offered to us at bar. The food and bar were limited. After a long flight and getting to hotel was disappointing, even the vending machine in our building was out.

This was a clean and safe property and had plenty of parking. There was a gate at the front with a person making sure that people who were staying there were the only ones getting in. The only down side was that there isn’t housekeeping that comes in to tidy up the beds and stuff but we didn’t mind.

Perfect experience

Everything was wonderful. The hotel is very well located, close to the city's main tourist attractions. The apartment is comfortable, extremely clean, and has all the amenities for guests' comfort. We stayed for 4 days and we didn't lack for anything. In addition, they have an excellent staff, fully prepared to deal with guests. Especially Mr. Succes and Mrs. Merlyn. We had some special needs regarding our check-out time, and they kindly helped us. We are very grateful to both for making our experience even better.

Staff was super friendly and helpful and loved the convenience of being able to communicate with them by text. FREE shuttle to and from Universal saved us a bundle and was so convenient. Pool was perfect. Our 2 bedroom family suite was just perfect and the ability to cook and eat in our room is so beneficial. We only ate out once a day and had food in the room for the other two meals a day. Kids were disappointed that Bball court was closed due to renovations but they want to go back- as do I!
