Holiday Inn & Suites Across From Universal Orlando

Great value for location!

Loved that this was so close to everything, Universal was right across the street and the outlets were just over the bridge. Great value and location!

The only downfall we found is that while they offer the shuttle to universal, it doesn't run very often so you really have to plan around the times it run and be prepared for a full bus.

Great location

Check in was fast

The wifi

6 day business trip

Got a free upgrade upon checking in. Staff are all helpful. Free breakfast buffet at Fridays.

Good offsite location

It was a great location for walking to Universal, not much further then their on-site hotels. Large, clean rooms with a fridge and microwave, nice pool, convinient TGIFridays attached to the lobby. There's a little gift shop with essentials in case you forget anything. There is also free wi-fi, which seems like it should always be standard but isn't in a lot of places still.

The sink seemed to be a little clogged, but we were just going to deal since it was only for 2 days. I think housekeeping may have noticed and told maintenance because when we came back from the park it was draining normally. There was also a random wet patch on the carpet that did dry up after a day (either shampoo or was connected to the sink issue. Both problems cleared up simultaneously but don't know if they were related). Little coffee pot was broken but not a huge deal for only a couple days.

Great!

Staff was great and very helpful. Had no issues with my stay.

They sell tickets for Universal there but you can get the cheaper price from universal itself. Besides that it was a comfortable stay.
