This is a solid economy hotel option with easy access to Universal. The hotel and room were clean and looked recently renovated. We stayed there for an event at the nearby Bill Frederick Park and had a rental car, so we never tried out their shuttle service. Parking was free and was easy to find a spot. There is far less traffic getting to Universal from this hotel then other hotels off of I Drive. The hotel was quiet overall, but we could hear the neighbors TV so depending on who's next to you, your experience could differ.
The only negative in our stay was the limited breakfast. The only warm options were toast and oatmeal packets, and the only protein was cold hard-boiled eggs.
The next time I'm looking for an economy hotel near Universal, I'll consider this one.
Additional Note: For confusion are 2 "Spark by Hilton Orlando" properties in the area, this one is "...near Universal", the other is "...Universal Blvd". This one is actually closer to Universal and has less traffic around.
