A look at the @cocacola Freestyle machine in the Helios Grand Hotel Club Level lounge. Complimentary beverages. This model is not listed in the Freestyle equipment page. It might be in field testing, as part of Coke's partnership with Universal Orlando Resort.

Parking machine at Helios Grand Hotel. Note the visitor rate. Room key is required to enter Epic Universe from Helios Grand Hotel. This seems to relax when Bar Helios opens, so that park guests with reservations can easily visit and return.
