Beautiful area and close to legoland, but our air condition didn’t work properly, we even had maintenance to our room 3 times and it was never fixed properly. So it we tossed and turn all night due to the temperature.

Great work on cleaniless

It was great with the service and accommodations. Only issues were cleanliness. My sisters stayed in one room and me in another. Their bathroom smelled like pee and had pee stains around the toilet. Our sofa bed looked like they didnt even check it was used. The sheet was all crumbled up and there was hair on it.

Our family enjoyed this property from the moment we checked in. From the staff to the grounds. To the proximity to Legoland. I rented two rooms, one for my son’s family and the other for us. One thing we both were perplexed about is, no maid service included for the three days we spent there? Other than that…a great time was had and we will be back!

We were able to check in early at no extra cost. Very nice rooms. My son slept on the pull out couch bed and felt it was comfortable. Absolutely love that they provided plenty of towels including a black washcloth for make-up removal. Well stocked kitchen basics included soap and sponge and dish towels. Highly recommend. Within walking distance to Legoland through back gate entry is a plus!
