Self check-in was a joke, checked in but didn't realize it sends you an email to tell you your room number and didn't really understand the wristbands real well. 1 night we didn't have any hot water for about 3 hours. This hotel isn't worth the price they charge. Average rooms, your paying for the water park. Won't stay again. Also I never saw anywhere where it says $100 deposit for each nite. And then $35 a day for parking, REALLY? Oh well lesson learned.

Check-in was super easy, checkout was even easier. Only stayed one night and the hotel served its purpose as a one night hotel. There was definitely mold in the vents but it’s Florida so I kinda just expect that at this point. Overall decent, not great or terrible.

I arrived 45 minutes early to Grand hotel, and when I asked for my room. The lady at the front disk told me with an attitude, that I have to wait tell 3:00. I had the room for three night and not 1 day did they clean the room. The workout equipment was out of order. Had to go to the front disk to have towels sent to the room. The lady in the lobby was very unprofessional, I didn’t have a microwave in the room. I had to go to the lobby to warm up my food.

Towels had spots on them, they didn’t have towels for us one of the nights we asked, the door to enter the room you had to swipe like 5 times and do a weird thing with the handle to even open the door!

I usually go for cheaper hotels and therefor they’re usually slums (you get what you pay for, I know) and that’s what I was expecting with this place because of the price. I was pleasantly surprised! I booked a room with a king bed and ended up with a room with two full beds, but it worked out fine either way. That’s the only “complaint” I have, which isn’t even really a complaint but might have been a problem for another person so it’s the only reason I’m mentioning it. Everything else was great! Will definitely be coming back.

Can’t beat the location! Shuttle was timely and convenient (departs 9:30a and 11a return pick up at park is 6p). Breakfast was “alright” but definitely enough to get your day started! Best part was we arrived at 9:15am (early flight) and were planning on leaving our bags with the concierge but the room was ready! What a great surprise! Hotel rooms are a little beat up BUT clean and beds were SO comfortable!

Bathroom is EXTREMELY SMALL. Toilet clogged, sink doesn’t drain properly, TV doesn’t work, the first 8am shuttle was PACKED with other people from another hotel, our staff was rude, they have to take my card info down because their machine wasn’t taking debit cards so I never got my deposit back. God for bid you need utensils outside of breakfast hours, the lady at the front desk with the birthmark on her face was extremely RUDE. 0/10

Location is ideal and the convenience of having a complimentary shuttle to Universal Studios is a massive plus. The hotel although slightly outdated, is very clean and the rooms are good sized with comfortable beds. Breakfast is your average continental option. Wifi isn’t reliable and the tv wont work without it. Half of our stay the wifi was down.
