I frequently visit Orlando and am always looking for budget friendly hotels, that don’t feel budget friendly. This hotel looks like it was totally remodeled, and they did a good job! It’s great for the price. Quiet, close to the theme parks, and incredibly worth the price! Will definitely stay again!

Excellent Universal Partnered Motel!
Great place that's inexpensive for short or long stays. The customer service is amazing and readily answers any questions you may have. The rooms were clean, but, of course, it's not a five-star hotel, so don't expect everything to be spotless. You get what you pay for. The location is fantastic, as Universal Orlando Park is just a stone's throw away—only a five-minute drive or a 15-minute walk! This motel is also a partner motel, offering scheduled shuttles to the parks. The on-site café is excellent, and there’s also a pool, an Indian restaurant, and a small shop in the lobby area.

Good choice, walking distance from the outlets
It is not a hotel, it’s a motel. It is simple but very nice. I didn’t like that they charge extra to use the safe which I consider is needed because I didn’t see any cameras around the property and being a motel you can get inside easily from the street without anyone noticing. The other issue I found odd is that the housekeeping service for the room is every third day and you have to request it at the front desk one day before around noon; the thing with this is that, for starters, you have to remember which day to request it and then be there at the requested lapse of time to schedule it. I stayed 5 night and cleaning didn’t happen…not a big issue for me but surely not used to it. Apart from these it is a good choice and would definitely return.
