The 2bd site was amazing for my husband, baby and parents. We went to a wedding and left our son with our parents and was so convenient and spacious. The breakfast was also a huge surprise with how delicious it was and great options. The smoothie was my favorite!

The staff was great and the family enjoyed the hot tub. Great location. Close to the highway and Legoland. The rooms could use a little upgrade kitchen was not fully equipped but we managed with only one sharp knife and no coffee pot for the coffee machine. Breakfast was phenomenal!!!

Love this hotel! We stayed here when we went to Legoland. It’s in a quiet location away from all the chaos from Legoland. It’s very clean and the staff is super friendly. The A/C works wonderful! My only complaint is I don’t think the breakfast is all that great like others have said. Also, the laundry has 3 washers but only 2/3 were working. And they were both used when I needed it. Wish they would add more or fix the 3rd one. Overall, would stay here again!

Our family of five stayed here for five nights and we enjoyed our time. It was safe, staff was beyond friendly and courteous to our needs. Two complaints that I do have is that the free breakfast every morning definitely needs more options and food was very low quality on how it was prepared. The other complaint was that there was a smell coming from under the sink that filled the entire kitchen area and living room area. Other than those two things, everything else was great and we enjoyed our stay.
