Nice place overall. The TV was pretty small and the pillows on top of the bed need to be updated. Past that great place.

Bed was SO comfortable! My wife said “it’s the best sleep she’s had in years.” The included breakfast was very nice and milk and cookies at night was a very nice touch. Everyone at the property was very friendly. My only complaint would be that the pool was ICE cold, it would be a very nice touch if it was heated.

Everything was immaculate. Very clean and spacious room, staff was incredibly kind, and they even bumped our check out time back when our 3 year old fell ill over night, allowing us extra time so he could sleep.

The hotel had a charming and welcoming feel. Very kind staff ! Clean and well kept . Breakfast was delicious and served nightly chocolate chip cookies and milk . My only suggestion was that there was pool and it would have been nice if it was heated so we would have had that option. I’d definitely return if I was in the area.

This is a beautiful hotel! We were checked in quickly and even offered milk and cookies! The room was clean, cozy and equally as beautiful ad the hotel. Bathroom has everything you need (and great hot water and shower pressure) the little “kitchen”area is perfect with a great sized fridge, sink and microwave. Bed is super cozy and comfy with awesome pillows and blankets/comforter. TV is modern and offered a ton of variety to veg out to after a long day. I have no idea why I have been wasting money on other local legoland hotels these past 3 years. This place is a gem! The staff is really friendly and welcoming as well. Officially our forever Legoland vacation hotel!!!

The room smelt musty and dust. I had to wipe down the desk immediately. Not every quite as you could hear through the door. People above/below you can hear you open and close the doors as well as walking. Not idea for sure and over priced. Better lower priced options available. Hotel appear to look nice and staff is nice but needs a major renovation.
