I had a very frustrating experience at the hotel, primarily due to poor service and maintenance issues. While the location is fantastic for anyone attending events near Universal, our room was not up to standard with several problems. The staff's response was disappointing, making the stay more stressful than it needed to be.

The hotel is located in a prime area with plenty of restaurants nearby and easy access to Universal, thanks to the complimentary shuttle service.

The hotel was a decent choice for our trip, offering an excellent location near restaurants and attractions.

I had an overall fantastic experience at the Avanti International Resort! The staff was incredibly helpful and attentive, which made my stay enjoyable. My room was clean and comfortable, though I had a slight issue with the air conditioning which was swiftly handled by the staff. The only downside was the breakfast, which didn't quite meet my expectations. I'd definitely recommend this place for its warm service and pleasant atmosphere.

This hotel has some great features, such as a lovely pool area that the kids enjoyed and a convenient shuttle service to the parks. The staff were friendly, which made for a pleasant stay. However, the rooms could use some improvements in comfort and cleanliness, and the dining options are fairly basic. Overall, it's a decent choice if you're looking for budget-friendly accommodations close to attractions.
