블러바드 호텔 앤드 스튜디오 유니버설-할리우드, 애센드 컬렉션 호텔

It’s a really great place to go to universal studios.

So close to universal studio and restaurant.

If you are looking for a convenient hotel to experience Universal Studios and you don't mind walking, this hotel has value. It is my second time staying here with my partner and we have enjoyed both time so far. It would be a disservice to the people and the hotel to compare this hotel to a hotel on the 4/5 star bracket/tier. I believe this hotel is a great 3 star hotel. Aesthetic of the hotel is nice on the outside, garage, and lobby. However, the facade unravels as you get onto the elevator and walk the hallways. It is a bit dingy, but tolerable. The rooms are furnished in a way that it a bit lackluster, but they have their purposes. Most outlets work, but they are inconvenient to get to; bedside outlets do not work. The fridge is not very powerful and you can see the condensation form from the difference in freezer and fridge temperatures. There is a $30 parking fee per evening and a service charge when you check in. The food that you have access to within walking distance are great. Walking to Universal Studios takes about 20 minutes while taking the tram near the Hilton. The 101 entrance is less than 2 minute drive (two traffice lights down). Overall, if you keep your expectations low, this hotel can serve you well.

My stay at this hotel was a mixed experience. Initially, the first room's key didn't work, leading to frustration. However, the second room was clean and seemed acceptable. Unfortunately, the hot water in the shower didn't work, and the lights flickered. It's a budget option, so you essentially get what you pay for.
