This year, I spent my birthday locally at the Sheraton Universal...just a short hop from my first job at Universal Studios!
The Sheraton staff and accommodations were excellent...we stayed in the old Lanai wing overlooking the pool. It was rather charming. They tell us the 'old' Sheraton is getting a new face..as renovations have already begun!!
The staff was very sweet...and they sent over birthday cake, balloons, and candles, etc. They made me feel so special and comfortable. Late into the night, the fire torches over the pool area and made for a very nice tropical balcony view from our room!! ( In fact, perhaps we were the last occupants of the Lanai area...as reservations are no longer being booked for those rooms due to noisy construction!)
Personally, I have many memories of the old Sheraton...there were local high school proms and events held there over the years...a sentimental journey, however, I can't wait to see the new hotel upon completion!!
Lastly, my husband and I have friends coming in for New Years...and we will have another stay with them at the Sheraton Universal Hotel...so in fact we WILL have one last peek at the 'old school' Sheraton....Funny enough, it seems we are not the only ones who want a sentimental last look around!!
Better hurry up...and see you at the pool!!
