    Rooms are clean and have nice amenities like microwaves. Breakfast isn't included, and water pressure in the shower is poor.

    Staff service shines here. One remarkable young woman worked tirelessly, serving customers even after a painful accident. She embodies professionalism and kindness. the shuttle service is a mess-limited times and disorganization. Rooms range from passable to outright unpleasant, with odors and poor upkeep evident. Dirty carpets and outdated bathrooms amplify the discomfort. Breakfast options are disappointing, presenting minimal choices and unsatisfactory quality. Despite a clean reception area, an unsettling encounter with pests prompted departure. Staff resolved issues well, offering a refund, but the experience fell drastically short of expectations. Consider focusing more on cleanliness and operational efficiency. It's a matter of necessity.

    The room had a very comfortable bed. I appreciated the cleanliness and tidy appearance overall. the air conditioner was old and didn't function properly, leaving us sweating at night. There was a strong marijuana smell that lingered, which caused headaches and nausea. The bathroom showed signs of neglect, with mold on the ceiling. The mini fridge wasn't cold, and parts of the room felt dated. Housekeeping kept us stocked with towels, but there was a lack of thorough cleaning. The corridors felt uninspired, contrasting with the potential of the room itself.

    Close to Universal, which is a major plus. Room cleanliness could be better. Nice heated pool and hot tubs. Limited shuttle service times made getting to parks tricky. Enjoyed golf nearby for some leisure time.

    The shopping here is great for kids and adults alike. There are plenty of fun shops and plenty of activities to keep the family entertained.

    It wasn't exactly cheap, but it was still reasonable.

    I tried to do laundry, but my debit card got charged $12 for four loads that never washed. When I complained, the front desk shrugged it off. Super frustrating! Plus, I found hair in my tub.

    I had an amazing time at this hotel, as it was just a short Uber ride or a reasonable walk to Universal Studios, Icon Park, and a plethora of dining options, which made it super convenient for our family adventures; plus, the staff were incredibly friendly and the room was clean and comfy. One thing to note is that the hotel could definitely use some renovations, but overall, it was a great base for exploring all that the area has to offer.

    The staff were super friendly, and the rooms were really comfy with two sinks, a fridge, and a microwave. We felt safe walking to Universal, which was a 20 min stroll. Breakfast options were pricey but tasted good. The fitness center and hot tub were nice perks.

    Christian, the manager, was fantastic, creating a welcoming vibe. Nathan at check-in offered helpful tips with a smile. The location is ideal for visiting Universal, with restaurants and shops nearby. The hotel vibe is charming despite its age, but it could use a refresh. Not all rooms are equal; one had a loud AC and odd pillows. An awkward incident with an occupied room could have been handled better, and some front desk staff could use a lesson in hospitality. Still, comfortable beds and great management staff make it memorable.

    Location was great, only a 5, minute drive from restaurants and entertainment spots. The staff, especially Luciana at the front desk, was fantastic , very friendly and upgraded our room, which was a nice surprise. The pool bar was a unique feature for a budget, friendly hotel, and the room was comfortable, with daily towel replacement and garbage removal. No noise from other guests could be heard, making it a peaceful stay.

    I was disappointed that both jacuzzis were not functioning correctly, with temperatures below what was expected. Renovations were scheduled to start after my stay.

    The iron and ironing board provided were very convenient, making it easy for me to keep my clothes looking neat. The air conditioning worked well, keeping the room at a comfortable temperature even on warmer days. The room also had a nice sitting area, perfect for relaxing after a long day of exploring the parks. One of the things I really appreciated was the heated pool. It was a great way to unwind and relax, especially after a hectic day at the theme parks. the coffee shop onsite was a nice touch, providing a convenient spot to grab a quick drink or snack. there were a few areas that could be improved. The bathroom could have been better maintained, as the toilet handle came off when I tried to flush, and there was water damage on the ceiling inside the shower. The flickering lamp was a minor annoyance, and the mini fridge was a bit small and impractical. Despite these issues, the staff, including Rebecca and John at the front desk, were exceptional. They were cheerful, kind, and always willing to help. The location of the hotel was also a major plus, being close to popular attractions like Disney and SeaWorld. Best Western provided a comfortable stay with some minor drawbacks that could be addressed.

    Less than 10 miles from Disney! The complimentary shuttle service to Universal Studios was a lifesaver. Sharky & Jacks Bar had a Caribbean vibe? felt like I was on a tropical vacation!

    Would love if they had a rockin' pool party just for us teens to vibe and splash our way through the night! .

    I had a fantastic experience at this hotel as a solo traveler. The staff was very friendly and welcoming, making me feel safe and comfortable throughout my stay. The room was well-equipped with all the necessary amenities, including a flat-screen TV and ironing facilities. The location was ideal, as it was just a stone's throw away from Universal Studios and other popular attractions, restaurants, and shopping areas. The free Wi-Fi was fast and reliable, allowing me to stay connected during my trip.

    Some minor cleanliness issues with stained pillows and a chair with sauce from a previous guest were the only downsides.

    Almost perfect 😊.
