"It's hard to express how much we love this hotel. Even apart from it's fantastic location and proximity to Universal Studios and City Walk, this place is a whole VIBE. It's somehow chic, hip, and incredibly family-friendly. It's a full service hotel with modern amenities that manages to cultivate an almost communal, b&b-esque atmosphere. Quaint and nostalgic, but far from tacky. And the food and drink choices from the courtyard and poolside menu to the incomparable Front Yard restaurant are magnificent. But none of this would shine through to the extent it does without the thoughtful and attentive staff throughout. The Garland is our own little slice of SoCal heaven and we can't wait to come back!"
