average stay, some issues
helpful shuttleincreased depositno spending options
the location was convenient near the attraction, a helpful shuttle being available.
The incidental deposit increased unexpectedly to $100. I don't have a car, and there was nowhere to spend that money at the hotel because the restaurant was closed for lunch and dinner. this policy impacted my overall satisfaction .

The hotel location is near the park. It took about five minutes to walk there. The visit was overall good, especially with the Universal Studios visit. This was a great advantage.
The room was not clean, the furniture was not clean either. There was a damp smell in the room. This affected my overall impression of the stay.

We encountered a few issues. The hotel restaurant and bar was closed for three days because of a wedding. Breakfast was outside, but the weather was cold and rainy. My breakfast included a piece of toast and it cost USD140.
