Great little gem of a hotel near Universal Studios

Great location for Universal Studios...it's a 15 min walk. Whilst the outside appearance may look a little dated, the room we had was exceptionally large, quiet, clean and with a comfy bed and great walk-in shower. Our room had a microwave and fridge and there were a number of supermarkets within walking distance to purchase food to bring back to the room. The only thing that would have enhanced our stay would have been the provision of tea/coffee making facilities in the room.

Convenient location, we had a bungalow that didn’t have a parking port so we had to park in front of the bungalow. Service was great, property is very aged- seemed like there may have been water damage (bubbling on the door and areas of the floor), bathroom door didn’t close, holes in the bed skirt, furniture very worn, looks like repairs started but never finished in some spots.
