Cold shower, no fun
At first, I was really impressed. I arrived way before checkin to head over to Universal Studios with my family. The front desk allowed me to pre-register and when my room was ready, they sent me a text.
Got to my room and it was smaller than expected. The remote control for the tv didn’t work so I had to call down for a new one. It was brought up within 10 minutes. All positives.
After a long day at the park, we all showered and went to bed.
The next morning we had to get up at 4am to leave extra early. However, when I went to shower that morning, there was no hot water. An icy shower was not fun. The water ran for more than 10 minutes. I had no choice but to get in and it did not get warm at all.
If it wasn’t for the cold shower, it would have been an amazing stay.

Holiday Stay
Staying at the Hilton has become a Christmas season stop for us now. Usually a day at Disneyland and a day at Universal. Hotel is very nice and we always get a corner room. This year we had a park view and could see all of Universal. Staying here takes us away from the day to day life and into a new place. Also convenient to hit Miceli's for dinner which we love.

Usual convenience for park play
Front desk was lovely at checkin and got us adjoining rooms. The kids had a blast. Only issue was when they had a big wedding they blocked off a path for strollers and we either had to walk into oncoming traffic or cut through these peoples wedding.
