We enjoyed this hotel so much! You are greeted by Sesame Street decorations outside, in the lobby, and in the gift shop. We were given cute little Sesame Street bags upon check in (that we didn’t use, but would be useful for holding cards or fun for children). We booked just a standard room and were given the orange room. We also had a stunning view of the park which was completely unexpected and a pleasant surprise. I did not think the room was small at all. There was more than enough room for us 2 adults. The 2 beds were pushed together, there was a sitting area and table, hanger space, and a well equipped bathroom with a tub. Pajamas were also provided. This hotel is hardly a 3 minute walk from the train station (which is a small and easy station to navigate), and just steps away from the park entrance. There is also a Lawson near the entrance where we grabbed pancakes and water before entering the park. They held our bags at the front desk upon checkout until we were ready to catch our next train. This place was very clean, cute, and the staff very friendly. We would love to stay again!
Everything was wonderful.

Central location next to usj station & park. Booked so we could get into park que at 6am. We were staying in Kyoto so this was an extra hotel on top for one night.

You couldn't ask for a better location when visiting Universal Studios. There is many food options on the doorstep and the train station is less than 5 minutes away on flat ground so it's easy to bring your luggage or head out on day trips. A chemist and convenience store is 2 mins away.
As expected, the rooms are very small but clean and well stocked with amenities.
