6/10 Good

Pretty run down for a Hilton property.
Given the location and the Hilton name I definitely expected better. 1st room was naususly overwhelming with cleaners/ Marijuana smoke. As well as a relative humidity of 80% in the room. Staff tried to minimize my complaint of the smell to keep us in the room. And after insisting on another room or refund to go elsewhere... The 2nd room was better but the whole hotel smells of musty old carpet. Air intakes and ruturns have not been cleaned in who knows how long.So, if you have allergies stay somewhere else of be prepared to suffer.

Worst experience
To be quite honest, this was by far the worst hotel experience to start. Upon checking in, the women helping me informed me she was stalling and delaying giving me my cards for the room because she didn’t want to deal with the person behind me and was waiting for the lady working with her to take her. That coworker however was dealing with an irate man that couldn’t get into his hotel room… well, ironically enough, later after dinner with my family, we ran into the same issue. The first room we had keys to had someone already occupied in it and we discovered that after trying to get in the room. We went downstairs to inform them, and were given another room.. that room then wouldn’t let us in and it sounded like people were in there too. They apologized downstairs, and explained how full they were for the weekend.we were then given a third room, and when there, it just kept flashing yellow now on that room key. Over it, and after traveling from one tower to another tower to see if it was an error on our part we went to the front desk to ask for help getting into our room because our two kids were exhausted and staring to cry since it was not almost 1am. The first woman to assist us never gave directions on our room or tower. The second woman never gave directions on our room or tower. Finally, after having a man take us through the dirty service elevator after they rescanned our keys, he helped us get into our room. The room was crappy and the shower is made for 5’9 and unde

I was disappointed that the rooms didn’t have a microwave or a clock. My family actually had three rooms there. And one of the days we were there, my room was skipped in being cleaned. However, they were good about cleaning the rooms every day instead of every other day.

NYE stay
Stayed here for NYE at Universal Studios. It was convenient, and is about a mile walk to the park itself (if you stay later than the shuttles run, you can still make it back) Check in to a little longer than usual as they seemed to have only one person working the desk, but the hotel itself is clean and very well maintained!

Great stay
While this hotel is older it's in very good condition. Rooms are very spacious & clean. Staff is excellent. Standard amenities. Can get a little noisy if there are young children staying nearby. Best part is the easy walk/access to Universal Studios Resort. I would definitely stay here again.

Universal Dream
The hotel was beautiful, clean, comfortable and top tier. I will be staying here on my next visit to Orlando. The staff was absolutely wonderful. The on site amenities were amazing with restaurants and dessert. The deal for this hotel I got was unbelievable for what you get with it. Not to mention it’s minutes from Universal which is super convenient with the bus shuttle or even uber. The only downfall I had was with the bus driver which doesn’t reflect on the hotel at all. I had to ride uber and spend extra money due to the bus driver refusing to let us and others on the last bus from universal after waiting well before time for the bus to arrive. We were told as long as we were there by 7:35pm we’d get on the bus and we were left stranded after rushing to the bus due to the bus driver picking and choosing who got in by letting everyone cut in front of us. There needs to be a better way to handle rides from universal to the hotel just like there is from the hotel to universal. This was my only negative experience and again this doesn’t reflect on the hotel but on the bus driver. I’d also like to mention the Christmas decor at the hotel was unbelievably gorgeous! I’m sad I forgot to get photos of it!
