10/10 Excellent
"Aging but we'll maintained. The ambiance is what gives it charm. The restaurant is a surprise. I would return to just have dinner if I'm ever in the area. The staff top to bottom went out of their way to be helpful. Reasonable rates for being so close to Universal and have their own shuttle that runs hourly."
