Old - Clean it Up!
Chris B on Dec 13, 2024
Quick trip to Orlando with our 3 kids. Stayed 4 nights at the Hard Rock. Pros - Location - close to park - Fast Pass included which is essential to a decent day at the parks - Fun atmosphere with live DJs at the pool on certain days - Kids loved the water slide - Great staff from the front desk to the pool, we had a great experience with the people working here - Onsite restaurants not bad, much better than anything you'd get in the park or at City Walk - Room was large and easily fit the 5 of us One con - OLD. It's a little disgraceful how bad our initial room was. Cloth furniture was stained with what looked like grease. Furniture including chairs and sofa couch were torn. Things in general are dented, dinged and scratched. The last straw was the stains on the sheets. They looked like rust or blood stains though I really don't know. The whole room felt gross, skeeved us out, especially my wife. To the staff's credit they changed our room and moved our luggage immediately but....come on. They're charging up to $1200 a night for these rooms, they should be clean and look a bit better than the roadside motel off 95 for $57/night. The new room was an exact replica of our original but very clean with new furniture. They probably should've provided an upgrade but gave use some drink tickets instead. Overall, it's a fun property with a great location IN DESPERATE NEED OF A RENOVATION!
The rockstars home of universal

It truly was the rockstar experience, the scenery and music helped set the mood. The many art works of musician's and autographed guitars thru the hotel. Friendly staff and beautiful grounds, didn't use the pool but would have loved to hear those underwater speakers. Comfortable beds and pillows, express pass and close distance to universal City walk was the determining factor for us. First time checking in and was not disappointed. Water taxi included.
