Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We booked this property since we are going to Legoland and we needed a place close by. It is very conveniently located and is about 5 min from Legoland. The hotel itself is close to other restaurants and stores. So that was convenient. The rooms were clean and the staff super courteous and helpful. We didn’t get the room that we had booked on the first night but they were able to give us the room the next day. The breakfast options are good. The elevators broke down the third day and that was bit of a hassle. Overall pleasant experience and no complaints

It was a poor experience. Room was dirty. There was no soap. Wall has open holes. Fire alarm went off for the property and upon checking they said “it was reset” and fixed.
