Beautiful family friendly hotel. Pool is nice and shows movies for kids. The shuttle to Universal Studios and back is very efficient. This was the perfect place to stay for our short trip to Universal Studios. Room service did a great job of resetting our room for us.

We held our wedding and reception at The Garland. The venue was perfect and the ceremony was perfect. I highly recommend The Garland for similar events or just for a night away.
