staff is extremely rude. no room service on my last night and was told, I guess you'll have to make your own bed. When I told them I had no soap I was told that they usually charge $1.00 per amenity. I didn't even have toilet paper and they could have cared less. never stay there again! Rude! Rude! Rude!

you get what you pay for

Good enough. The location is amazing for Legoland. The bed and pillows are really hard. There are zero toiletries furnished, just hand soap. Towels are super small and there is no coffee maker in the room. But I would stay here again just for the location and price. Room was not that clean

My entire trip had to be canceled. The first room had roaches, and the reassigned room was next to an individual that was under the influence of controlled substance and making a scene. It was unsafe for me and my family to stay at that hotel. It got to the point that the police were called. It was Labor Day weekend so all the other properties were booked. Had to cancel my trip. Hotel refused to issue a refund. Hoping that Expedia will make this right. I filed complaints with hotel manager, county health department, and next will be case in small claims court. I DO NOT RECOMEND THIS PROPERTY AT ALL. They false advertise

Not for me

Unfortunately the refrigerator was dirty as well as the floor. The show was rusted and had a bad smell from the drain. OMG all night long we heard the dog next to us barking and running all around the room. Let say I was out by 8am. Never again at this location
