The staff when checking in was very friendly and helpful. The room size was exactly what we needed. Two beds and pull out sofa with room to still move around was what we needed and worked great. We stayed to make our driving closer to Legoland. It was a great location. I would stay here again.

The location, parking, cleanliness, and people were all great. The biggest issue was the shower pressure was oddly extremely low.

10/10 Exceptional

The king room park facing is very spacious and clean. It has the essentials that are needed for a comfortable stay. The WiFi worked, the shower was warm, the bed was comfortable, the AC was cold, the TV worked well and the balcony is a great addition for fresh air and I had a partial ocean view! I really like that the rooms are not carpeted - cleaner option overall. I didn’t have the free breakfast as I was headed out to enjoy the great nearby restaurants/coffee shops. This was my 2nd time staying here and I have never had any issues. For the location and the price, this hotel is really great for a little beach getaway!
