We booked this stay for how close it is for our trip to Legoland to celebrate three kids birthdays. The hotel was very clean and in a nice area. Staff was very friendly. We did though have to end our stay a day early due to our son and my niece both have a skin reaction to something on the bed sheets. We had to have them both checked out and we were told it may have been something used to clean the sheets with. We did inform the staff and the young lady was very nice and understanding but we couldn't stay another night due to have to take the kids skin reaction. Another thing at least for our room we could hear our neighbors talking all night long which was a bit unfortunate. Other than that everything about the hotel was very nice.

Hotel was immaculate, BUT, unfortunately another MAJOR brand has turned to “fees” to generate revenue, $10 to park your car is leaves a slimy taste, grocery stores tried charging for bags , airlines sells tickets, THEN charge a fee for a seat, next this hotel brand will charge for a room key. ITS THAT SILLY.

The hotel is nice and clean with good breakfast. Rooms are quiet though i wish i could pull the drapes during the night but they were not that type of drapes. outdoor lights were on and kept the room light. The gym was just fine with minimum stuff, pool was ok but was on a shady part of building. Good hotel for a business trip stay.

The property was nice and clean. However, our only complaint is that there were three of us, but only two bottles of water provided in the room. When we requested an additional bottle, housekeeping refused. Unfortunately, the tap water had an unpleasant taste.
