OKAY FOR A SHORT STAY
The hotel was the same hotel that I stayed in four years ago and I did not notice until I arrived at the destination. It was just okay, only a bar, no food and the rooms were just again okay not too comfortable.
Never stay here if you value comfort and cleanlin.
At check in at 6:30pm we were given a room key. 2 king suite with balcony. Upon opening door it had not been cleaned. Bed unmade, twenty or more used q-tips next to microwave. Towels with food leftovers on bed and floors, trash can overflowing in middle of room. When we went back to front desk I was told they only had a lesser value room with 1 bed left. I asked for the room I paid for to just be cleaned and we would wait in lobby. I was informed that there was no housekeeper on duty and the man at desk was only staff present. I said I was not going into a 1 bed room with 4 people when I paid for the two king suite. He said to wait and 20 minutes later we were given another two king room. But without a balcony. The room was spacious but the hallways and elevator smelled of urine.
Great location in proximity to Universal Studios. A bit miss leading with the walking distance. Half of the walk is straight uphill which the average person would struggle with. It was fairly close to a shuttle which helped eliminate the hill. Currently under renovations and if it keeps going the way it has started this will be a very nice hotel.
Very close to Universal Studios c. 5 mins to the free shuttle or you could walk another 10 mins if you didn't want to use the shuttle. Metro (red line) also 5 mins away. Some restaurants near the property e.g. Panda Express, Subway, In and Out Burger and a Ralph's supermarket that was good value. Easy parking at the hotel. Good sized fridge in the room and microwave. We found other guests a bit loud on our floor, but that was infrequent. Pool is small and unheated (in the car park) so it was very cold even in August!
I enjoyed staying at BLVD Hotel & Studios although I have a few cons.. Let's start with the pros first...
Pros:
*It is a quick walk to Universal Studios.
*The staff is amiable.
*The rooms are clean.
*Quick and easy check-in.
*Reasonable room prices.
*Close to a variety of restaurants within walking distance.
*The neighborhood was decent.
*They have a bar and lounge area onsite.
*Free Mocktail - not cocktail. This can be a con for those who like to drink.
Cons:
*Parking is not free ($34 a night).
*Pool area is not that clean on the walls and ceilings. It reminds me of being in jail or something. It is an enclosed pool area. The pool goes up to 4ft I believe.
*The shower head in the bathroom did not work that great.
Overall, I would stay here again. The cons were not deal breakers for me. Although, if I were going to use the swimming pool to swim, I'd suggest looking into another hotel. As for the shower, there are two showerheads; 1 above you and 1 handheld piece. So, we could still shower even though the handheld one did not work.
Great spot right next to universal. Made everything convenient

Area isn’t the best
Area isn’t the best - it’s right off the highway and there are some sketchy people wandering around at all hours of the day. While it says “walking distance to Universal,” I wouldn’t feel safe walking to/from Universal. Other than that, the inside feel is pretty bare. The floors were dirty, and it AC could have been better.
