Very clean, excellent location for our trip to Legoland. Wonderful hot breakfast and friendly staff. Fridge & microwave in the room is fantastic, always a win in my book. Room was clean, water hot, and bathroom includes shower and bath. Shampoo/body wash smells great. The only thing missing would be an in-room safe (unless we missed it, couldn't find it if it was there). Would definitely stay here again.

Property was in a nice area but really showed its age! Outlets were few and far between and the ones they had were so bad we couldn't charge our phones correctly. Lighting was terrible, and the free breakfast was a disgusting free for all! My wife got food poisoning from the turkey sausage! Staff never said hello unless you were checking in or out. We're very disappointed and won't be back!

Gentlemen who answered my call was nice but the lady that Sunday evening in the front desk had a bit of spice which is questionable service but overall it was fast and easy. The shower door didn’t seal all the way in our room so it left water on the bathroom floor. Very cool that they have a waffle maker that comes along with the breakfast! Only a few minutes drive from the beach !
