This place was such a rip off. The whole place is busted, when you look around for more than 10 minutes everything is busted and crusty. Broken and dirty elevators, wall plug covers falling off, broken art pieces in the lobby, trash laying around everywhere. Not to mention there is no in room microwave, not even a real coffee maker, and by the way, the single cup-brrwibg machine they do give you, dirty AF. If you want a microwave you have to walk all the way to the arcade and endure un-supervised brats screaming while you are waiting for your popcorn to finish popping. The bed sheets were stained, with (what I really hope was) red lipstick. But considering all the grime, probably blood. I will never stay here again. Anyone else thinking about it, save your money and stay somewhere else, I cannot believe that universal calls this a partnered hotel.

My stay was not only comfortable and immaculate, but every single one of the staff was friendly, helpful, and on point. From the Bell Hops Kip and Dan, the wonderful staff of the Sunshine Cafe, who delivered the best breakfast buffet I've had at a hotel in years, to the clerks who checked me in and the bartender of the American Grill. All of you deserve a raise! The room was also wonderful, with a great view, very clean and well stocked, it was the best stay I've had in years. I will certainly return the next time I am in the area!
