Hotel Details

Location

Just a 5-minute drive from Universal Orlando Resort, this hotel sits in Orlando's top-rated area with easy access to theme parks and Interstate 4.
The location scores 9.3 for its proximity to Universal, SeaWorld (11 km), and Walt Disney World (32-minute drive). Within a 5-minute walk are restaurants like KFC, Taco Bell, Miller's Ale House, and Waffle House. The I-Ride trolley stops nearby, connecting to International Drive. Free parking makes car use convenient, and the free shuttle to Universal eliminates park parking fees. Downtown Orlando is about 20-25 minutes by car or Uber.

Accommodation

Rooms feature private bathrooms, air conditioning, microwave, refrigerator, and flat-screen TV. Some have a seating area. Beds are comfortable, and daily housekeeping is included.
Room types include double rooms (one bed), quadruple rooms (two beds), and studios. All have a private bathroom, but no rooms have a balcony. Amenities vary: some rooms include a sofa area and coffee maker, while others may lack these. The property has undergone renovations, so newer rooms are updated, but older rooms may retain humidity smells, rust, or chipped fixtures. If humidity or mustiness is an issue, request a change immediately. Daily housekeeping is standard, but cleaners may enter even with a 'Do Not Disturb' sign - use the safe for valuables.

Dining

A complimentary continental breakfast is served daily with cereals, bagels, waffles, yogurt, fresh fruit, and coffee.
Breakfast is typically available from 6:30 to 9:30 am as a self-serve continental buffet or grab-and-go bag. Items include boiled eggs, oatmeal, juice, and sometimes Nutella. There is no on-site restaurant, but vending machines offer snacks and drinks, and a minimarket is on site. Over a dozen quick-serve and sit-down restaurants are within a short walk, making it easy to eat out for other meals.

Wellness and Leisure

An outdoor swimming pool with free sun loungers and umbrellas is open year-round from 7:30 am to 7:30 pm.
The pool is not heated but provides a refreshing option after a day at the parks. There is also a 24-hour fitness centre for workouts. For downtime, sun loungers and beach umbrellas are provided free around the pool. The property does not have a spa or wellness centre.

Facilities and Services

Free WiFi, free parking (including accessible and EV charging), luggage storage, and a 24-hour front desk are available. Pets are not allowed.
Parking is free and does not require a reservation. The hotel offers a business centre with fax/photocopying, safety deposit boxes, and a concierge desk that sells theme park tickets. Additional paid services include laundry. The property is wheelchair accessible with a lift, adapted bathrooms, and grab rails.
