The elevator where our room was was out of service. A bit inconvenience with two little ones and the stuff we brough along but otherwise great location to the family pool and local shopping. Their activity center /game room was just enough entertainment for our kiddos (4 and 1)! would definitely come back. rooms are clean and spacious!

We had an excellent stay here. Very close to Legoland and the splash pad, playground, arcade, and activity center were great for it 3 year old.

It was okay. Not super luxurious. House keeping is limited and with kids it’s a bit challenging. We had a couple of issues during our stay but the manager did rectify it. I don’t think it was the most luxurious or the best place but it certainly was helpful to have large sleeping arrangements with multiple kids. I’d rate this a 6.5 or 7/10

The property has definitely aged and could use some updates—it likely was quite nice at one point. The elevator was out of service during our stay, which made being on the third floor a bit inconvenient. The pool loungers were a nice touch, and the room itself was decent—simple but clean. One thing to note: the listing mentions a shuttle to Legoland, but that service is no longer offered. On the plus side, guest parking is free, which was appreciated.
