This was a great budget hotel for our trip to universal studios! We would definitely stay again. Rooms were clean and in good condition, front desk staff was friendly, and there is free parking. After 7pm you have to check in at a different hotel but the staff at El Patio Inn make you very aware of that and where the hotel is. Great location for universal studios, there’s a bus stop a two minute walk away and it’s just 3 stops to the universal shuttle. Great hotel!

We had a pleasant time here, the parking and rooms are small but very clean and staff very friendly.
I would recommend this place for sure.
I have nothing negative to say about this place.
We definitely come back.
Thank you!
Black mould in the showers, dirty sheets greedy finger prints on the walls and being ground floor with sketchy neighbours made it feel extremely unsafe and would not budge when alerted about black mould and need to check out early. Would NOT recommend.
Have to check in and at different inn. Nobody working the inn. Parking lot was extremely compact and i have a small car. Found a milipede in the bathroom first night then a roach in the morning. Called the number provided no answer. Called the inn that i checked in with and she was very rude and snarky about the fact i found a roach. Went to use the 2nd roll of toliet paper on the last day and found reddish strains into the sides of the the toliet paper. I would never recommened this place to anyone, i dont care how close it's to universal studios.
This property was not staffed only there certain times. Parking was horrible very inconvenient to get in and out!! Street noise bad. Motel was not represented very well in Expedia. Overpriced for what it is. Would not stay there again.
I liked that I had a room that was not connected to others but it was not comfortable. Small quarters, little furniture, blinds didn't block the lights on all night. The noise was ok if you turned on the loud air conditioner and portable fan/heater. Internet didn't work at all.
The front desk guy was courteous but when we came back the door key was not working, no one was at the front desk, I called the number and he asked us to go to another hotel 2 miles away to get another key. We were tired and upset with this since we had reserved for 2 days and 2 nights. I would never come back to this hotel and will probably not do reservations throughout Expedia again.
The room was clean and quiet. The heater was difficult to reach as the bed was against the wall under it and i had to climb on the bed to adjust the temperature.
