Amazing location beds a bit tough
GREAT location. 20 minute walk to CityWalk. Shorter talk to Universal Grounds/Other resorts (where you could easily hop on park to park transit). I loved the location and the hotel. Also appreciated that the restaurant had plenty of plant based options. My only negative are the beds which I found to be a bit hard. Especially after a long achy day at the parks.

10/10 Exceptional

This hotel was extremely well maintained. The service at the front deck was very welcoming. The room was very clean and comfortable. It is across from Universal Studios. My only complaint would be the $33 charge for parking. It seems that all the Orlando hotels are doing this. If I’m staying in your hotel, parking should be complementary.

Loved the bridge to Universal I will be back soon thank you Hilton for a great stay
Patricia, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice hotel but has parking fee.
It’s an older property but seemed fairly clean. The room was big and the beds were comfy. Several good restaurants adjacent to the property. There was a fridge and coffee maker but no microwave which was disappointing as I use hot packs for my back. The $33/night parking fee was also a surprise and we were there for 4 nights. I feel that was excessive and I’ve stayed at many other Disney area resorts with free parking. Just won’t stay here again. Too bad.
Susan, 4-night trip

Front desk person was rude and disrespectful. I don’t need attitude at 2am. I was already tired.

2/10 Poor

Excellent location but subpar staff and service
Great location but dated room and unhelpful staff. Had constant issues with front desk to include disrespectful interactions. Persistent parking issues the front desk kept deflecting with excuses instead of solutions. The pizza burger to go restaurant had subpar and disrespectful service as well. The only positive this place has going for it is the proximity to Universal and the very helpful Universal desk personnel in the lobby.

Great stay
While this hotel is older it's in very good condition. Rooms are very spacious & clean. Staff is excellent. Standard amenities. Can get a little noisy if there are young children staying nearby. Best part is the easy walk/access to Universal Studios Resort. I would definitely stay here again.
Cathy, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice Stay
This is a nice, quiet hotel. Our beds were nice to sleep on and the room was clean. Cleaning crew pays attention to little details like keeping the baseboards wiped down. The only thing I could complain about is the carpeting. It’s not overly worn but did give off a slight odor, but it wasn’t unpleasant.
