Just Okay?!

This wasn't one of our favorite hotels and we will most likely not book this one again. It's run down and older. The gentleman at the front desk was polite. Breakfast was just okay. Location was convenient to Universal Studios.

Great stay!!

I haven’t stayed in a Best Western hotel for awhile and I glad I chose this Hotel. The front desk were very professionals and patients with questions not only from me but other guests as well. The room service was great and provided everything that we needed (hats off to them). Also, the hotel is very close to Universal parks and they have free shuttle to the parks, even though I did not use the shuttle but I heard from other guests that it was good. I wasn’t able to eat their free breakfast, late sleeper😁, but my daughter did and she said it was good. I did tried their free 24 hour coffee and it was very good. The hotel is kept clean at all times and doesn’t smell like other ones. The bed was very comfortable and the room is very spacious. I will definitely recommend this hotel and I will stay here next time Im in Orlando.

Property is a good budget option. Walkable to Universal, though I wouldn’t walk alone or late at night. Easy to Uber to the parks, as a quicker / safer option. Breakfast is decent - particularly enjoyed the pancake machine.

Overall great stay and great staff

The staff was very friendly. Rooms were tended to appropriately. We had a toilet issue that was fixed before we returned. Each time we asked for room to be cleaned, the linens were changed. Only downfall was the vent did not work in the bathroom amd when we opened the toilet top to check why it wasnt flushing, it had mold on the rim. The AC faced directly on one side of the bed making it difficult to stay warm on that side but was able to put my luggage stacked by that side to kinda block it from hitting so much.
