This property has multiple dining options, including a very large dining hall that has full breakfast, lunch, and dinner options. There are definitely healthier, delicious options which is nice to have on vacation. There is a Starbucks on location as well (no mobile order option however, lines are very long in the AM). So convenient. Shuttles to and from the Universal locations very frequently. Or you can take the walking path from the resort which takes approx. 17 minutes to Universal CityWalk and you can skip the long security lines to get into the park (our little hack), they have their own small security when you arrive to the end of the path. Our room was clean, quiet and exactly what my 2 kids (15 and 10) and I needed to relax and unwind in. The pool area and lazy river were lovely. My suggestion would be to go down at 9am to grab chairs if you want to have a pool day, it can get very busy as the day goes on. This resort really has just about every amenity that you may need, of course you are paying resort prices but that is to be expected. I would definitely stay here again!
