Location to legoland was perfect. Great shuttle service within 5 miles distance. Only issue, not a great food selection menu for long stays if dinning at the sheraton/westin every night.

Lovely hotel lacks service

beautiful property unfortunately lacking in housekeeping, and it was very cold during our stay and the heater/air conditioning unit did not work in either one of the rooms we booked. Our suite was not serviced until we called for clean towels. Only exceptional service was from the valet and Bellman Highly recommend Check bill before leaving!

Disappointment

Unfortunately the AC & Heating in our suite was not working. We spent two nights and requested after the first night which was very chilly only to receive no response from anyone or repair. Day 2 We left our suite at 8:30am returned 4:30pm after a long day to find the room had not been serviced. We had to call for housekeeping. Extremely disappointed, knowing we wanted to shower and rest before going out for our dinner reservation. The property is beautiful but definitely needs attention. The best service was the valet the team was excellent. We originally booked three nights, but checked out after two.

Only had a one night reservation. Staff was very professional. Only downsides I could find were on cleanliness and cost. My room had multiple hairs on the bathroom floor and bath robe. The $43 valet charge seemed excessive when the normal parking wasn’t far. Wouldn’t do valet again looking back.

Very good overall. But, this property has quite a few fees that aren’t included in the price to book. Parking & resort fees add up. I would say that each day I had fees of approximately $75 that were separate from the booking rate, just so you know.
