Worth every penny!
The two gentlemen at the check-in counter went above and beyond to accommodate a unique request for us. I loved the proximity to universal as it was actually cheaper to Uber to the park than pay parking!

The WiFi was terrible. I called earlier to see about early check in and they said no because they were busy. So I came at 3pm (check in time) and they told me my room was not ready. It was not until 4:30 that my room was finally ready. I was just waiting around until then. Only to have bad wifi in my room.

Honestly you get what you pay for..The 3 nights I was there I couldn't count how many roaches or bugs in the room. The bathroom had cracks everywhere with dirty sports. The bedding smelled terrible. So many things that I could go on about but I wouldn’t recommend this hotel to anyone. Never staying here again

I stay at this Clarion every year for 4 consecutive weekends for Halloween Horror Nights and have been doing so for years. The hotel is RIGHT outside the entrance to Universal. The beds and pillows are super comfortable. All rooms have mini fridges and single serve Keurig machines. I like how the buildings are arranged and there's always parking even when the hotel is fully booked. While it's certainly a budget hotel and may be a little dusty here and there, I have never experienced it being dirty and have never seen the bugs-who-shall-not-be-named. Full size bathtubs and good shower heads. Surprisingly quiet and cozy. I'll be back next year!

Do not stay at this hotel, I was there for a half an hour and left and went to the Cabana Bay hotel. This smells of curry, throughout the entire hotel and the room was musty smelling and air conditioner did not work! They would not refund my money!

The location of the hotel was just what we needed. The rooms were clean and smelled clean. However, no hot water for showers and the room temperature was fair, not cool or cold. Checked out on a Sunday morning right at 7:30 construction and banging going on in rooms in both sides of our room. Wasn’t a bad stay, but definitely more choices for same price in the area.
