No elevators. If you're on the 3rd floor like I was and have a heavy luggage, like I did, it was not an an enjoyable experience lugging it up and down the stairs. Besides that, my corner suite was extremely clean and spacious. Still would recommend.

Family of 3 LEGOLAND trip

This was a 2 night family of 3 stay to visit LEGOLAND and the convenience of walking through their private entrance was really nice and the main reason for the visit. We used the pools which were also nice and appreciated the options. It was quite a large area the resort is on so there’s a shuttle service to take you around if needed. Room was clean, although there were quite a bit of spiders/webs around, the room itself was clean and shower was hot.

My experience was pretty good overall. Easy check-in (would be nice if it was at 3pm instead of 4pm), room was clean, spacious (for one) and quiet. I liked that quiet hours were reminded every day via text.

We saw lots of spiders in the room. The right hand sink handle was loose, you could hear the neighbor from upstairs anytime they walked. The pool staff were overwhelmed and gave poor service.

The internet/expedia needs to be re-educated as to the offering of early entry to Legoland-NOT. The rooms that are below 1 bedroom also needs to express that the larger pools/playground are buildings over, as is the parking/walk to private entrance. Had to upgrade to meet my expectations and bill was posted incorrectly to my CCard. Had to reiterate a proper billing. Most available restaurants are at surrounding hotels-even a fresh cup of coffee! Very nice room, but would do more research next time. Also Expedia Customer Service confirmed park early access and THAT needs to change! Good vacation, but disappointing in some aspects. Did find property quite nice but would not stay in anything smaller than a one bedroom. Pool was quite large and nicely landscaped.
