    Hallie was amazingly helpful at check in. Got an upgrade to a bigger room and complimentary breakfast because it was our son’s birthday. Beds were lovely and comfortable. 15 minute walk to Universal Studios and other parks (bus also free). Watched fireworks from our room.

    I stayed at the Doubletree at the Universal Entrance and had a wonderful experience! It started with the most friendly front desk person I’ve ever met, Diamond. She was welcoming, friendly, and informative. She answered all my questions and had such a bubbly personality. (Which is hard to come by in customer service). All other employees were known to say “Have a good day” if you caught them in the elevator or hallway. The team of 3 employees that were working the morning shift at Starbucks on July 1st were awesome! They were also fast & friendly, even with a long line! I had breakfast at the hotel’s restaurant and Jim who was my server was extremely attentive and made sure I was taken care of. I did use the fitness center which had a nice variety of machines and free weights. The gift shop was a nice solution when I needed a quick snack or energy drink. They specifically had my favorite brand of energy drinks which is Alani. The pool is open from 7am-11pm which is great! Plenty of time to enjoy it. My only wish is more flexible times with the shuttle to and from Universal Studios. It would be nice to have a few more options with return times since the City Walk is still lively at night. Other than that, I will be back!!
