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.

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 !

My stay was great here. The rooms were nice, clean, roomy had everything we needed. We really enjoyed the fact that they had coffee 24/7 available. Breakfast is nice in the morning. Not the best but not the worst. The bed was a little too firm for me but okay over all.
