The property is expansive and there are lots of places to find the sun. The staff is nice and friendly. Rooms are clean and maintained. This property is so close to Universal Studios we ended up going to the park 4 out of our 7 days in Orlando. Buses are convenient. I prefer this property over Disney's hotels. More space and the pools are bigger.

Loved this property with easy access to the parks either by walking or taking the free shuttle. The pools were fun and the early entrance to the parks was such a great bonus. We ordered food from a local grocery and had it delivered to the hotel so we could make breakfast daily before heading out.
