Parking and check-in was difficult. Really no where to park and if you do park you have to pay $33 per night. There is a valet option for $41 per night. There is no where to stop to get checked in, but the valet was nice enough to allow me to park near a dumpster. The second time we stayed here we got dropped off and picked up. Starbucks on site was a little busy and expensive. Overall this was best nightly deal we could find, but the cost of parking would be a deterrent in the future.

A rather old hotel, the reception is friendly, pets are allowed in the hotel!!!! , and the parking fees are high, but what distinguishes it is its location.

Everything was great except the shower didn't work at all. They sent a guy up and he was able to get the water flowing. I got in the shower after he left and while the water did flow it was scalding hot at all temperature levels. I advised the front desk at checkout, they thanked me for letting them know. I think it would have been nice if they took some off the bill as the reasons for staying in a hotel are literally to sleep and clean-up.

Near to universal studio theme parks and nice service staff at reception

Just checked out, I paid for 7 rooms, 3 nights each for a group of 12 men. I have been staying here for the past 10 years. The location and amenities are good. But the rooms are tired and worn out. Needs major renovation, room had a heavy cigarette smell and overall dirty feel to it. I am very disappointed because I like staying here each year with a group I bring on annual trips. Also, at checkout, the front desk clerk was very rude when I told her a restraunt charge on one of the rooms' bill was wrong. That person never ate there or charged anything to room. She said she would pull the receipt and then came back and never said anything. She just reprinted the room receipt and said it was off. But she was upset about it and treated me as if I was trying to get away with a free $30 meal when I just paid $3000 for the rooms. She needs training if she is going to be in the hospitality business.

This place is like a Vegas hotel. Absurd stream of people EVERYWHERE. Constantly. In and out. Never seen a longer check in line (thank god for being a diamond). The room itself was nice and not bad price. My only real complaint is the incredibly rude response I got from Kayla when I asked through the app if I could extend my stay one night. Turns out there was plenty of room so Kayla had no idea what was going on. But I opted for a different hotel anyway that was much better.

Had a pleasant stay at the double tree. We needed a good site centrally located to several events I was attending over the weekend and it didn't disappoint. The room was clean and well organized. I also found the staff to be friendly and knowledgeable about any questions I had about the facility and the surrounding area. I've attended several events at this location and will likely stay here again in the future. I would definitely recommend it to friends and family visiting the area.

We stayed two years in a row with two toddlers and overall were impressed with the hotel and service, but BE AWARE when we first arrived at midnight this year we were told they had double booked and did not have the room we reserved so they would send us to another hotel for the night. We waiting an hour and a half with our kids in the lobby they hadn’t helped us because they had so many other people that they had to send away. So we ended up sharing a room with another guest we knew.
Coming here with kids we appreciated the caged in splash pad, the laundry room ($8 per load), that we could walk to universal City Walk, the itrolly stop right outside, that they serviced/cleaned our rooms daily, paying extra for the breakfast buffet was very worth it and the servers remembered us and gave us great advise for where to go. There’s one microwave for the whole hotel in their game room though that was a downside.

Great location, as it’s nearby to Universal Studios and near some restaurants. Very great for conferences as well. The pool was big and loved that there was a splash pad for the kids and hot tub. Also very convenient that they have a starbucks and breakfast buffet and pizza & burger place right in the hotel!

The rooms are a bit out dated, but really spacious. Hotel staff were all very friendly and welcoming— from the front desk folks, housekeeper, valet and even just any worker i walked by!

The only thing that sucked was the $33 per day parking, but i get it the parking was very secure. Would definitely come back here in the future!
22.03.2025
Close to Universal Studios, but still need to take uber if you missed the shuttle bus or you did not reserve ahead. Close to outlets too, but not walking friendly as it’s kind of beside a freeway. The hotel is kind of old also.
