First time to florida

Me and my finance stayed here for my birthday vacation and when I tell you the stay was perfect it was perfect… We ate breakfast at the hotel everyday and it was cheaper then going to somewhere outside the parks then the hour you get just for being a guest there was worth not getting an express pass 10/10 place to stay when going to universal studios
Dorian, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great place to stay and enjoy Universal

Loved the whole vibe. Super friendly and helpful staff. Pool area looked amazing but didn’t get to use because our flights were delayed. Our room was very nice. We had dinner at the bar in the bowling alley and had after drinks at Swizzle and enjoyed those as well. Shuttle to park was excellent. Everyone was great.
