No Hot Water.
Check in was nice and easy. Other than that, it was not the best. We had a family room (two queens and a futon). Im glad we didnt need the futon, there wouldn't have been room to walk around; the room is very small. The worst - Worst part was that there was no hot water. None. My daughter and I showered at different times, and there was no hot water. The temperature did not change from Cold after 3 minites. The front desk is staffed from 9am to 9pm. We were not in our room during those times so we couldn't tell anyone. We checked out early at 9:15am and were going to tell them then, but there was no front desk person to talk to. I talked to a couple who also had no hot water. Maybe there was an issue they were unaware of and this was a fluke, but it was difficult to tell them. The beds were not comfy and the blankets were thin. In one area of the room there are glass blocks as a window that have no curtains or cover. If you need a dark room to sleep, this is not it. But really, all of that could have been overlooked if we had hot water.

A great place to stay for a universal trip
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!

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.

Dirty, bugs, bad customer service
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.

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.
