Creator's Key Takeaways

Hard Rock Hotel is possibly one of my favorite on-site Universal resorts.

We paid about 500 and change for this room. So, obviously just based on the Express Pass alone, the hotel pays for itself.

The shower was great, amazing.

It's really a stress-free experience, which I love.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book a premier hotel for Universal Express Pass access.
Use the water taxi or 5-minute walk to Universal Studios.
Check the pool hours, as they close at 11:00 p.m. on weekdays.
