The place was quiet, the staff was very friendly and polite. The entrance to universal from the hotel doors is like a 7-10min walk and super easy. I will definitely be back.

Meh
Apparently there was a youth football event going on in Orlando, and there were thousands of kids everywhere, very loud. The line to check in was extremely long and they only had two people working.
Housekeeping comes early, before checkout has started.
The shower door wouldn’t stay closed, so the bathroom floor got soaked.
They will nickel and dime you for everything - parking was $33. Breakfast is an additional fee.
