The location and convenience of this hotel are excellent, especially with the shuttle service to Universal Studios. The staff was also great—very friendly and helpful during our stay. However, the building does seem a bit older, and noise from the hallway, including doors slamming and people walking, could be heard at night. Light from the hallway also came through a gap under the door, which made sleeping a little more difficult. The beds were not the most comfortable and the frames creaked when moving, but the shuttle service and friendly staff were definite positives.
