Good but not good
Good lobby customer service but the bad part was the floor was never swept, it was disgusting, especially having kids around, it was not good.

Hotel was great for price and location. We would have liked shampoo and a blow dryer in the room. Those of us who got the bigger fridge with the freezer loved that. That is important for us when traveling with kids. Big plus that it was close to Legoland.

Comfy stay
Just a quick day trip to get out of the city and be close to the beach. In a decent area with walking distance stores and restaurants. Had people outside partying in front of my door, called to the front office to notify them and they addressed and took care of the situation right away. Thank you so much for that!
