I made a last minute booking and I should have known better. This place overall looks promising when you see pictures, but the reality of the property is sad. We checked in, 4 people, after a long day at Legoland. Looking forward to taking showers but there was only 3 towels and 1 wash clothe. we called and requested more and we were told that they had just ran a load of towels and were waiting for them to dry. WHAT?!?! A hotel without towels?!? So we waited a bit and got nothing so we gave up and fell asleep, but not before we noticed bugs IN the fridge! Crawling around the kitchen and bathroom were roaches. There was also mildew or mold on the walls in the bathroom and tiles in the shower. I realize now that this was an extended stay hotel and most guests are probably used to these conditions. Sadly my kids were totally grossed out. I felt bad but didn’t have very many other options so we just dealt with it but boy did I learn a lesson…always take the time to look at reviews and do my homework on hotels.
Black mold/mildew growing on all of the walls in the bathroom
Disgusting mildew in the shower tiles
Oh, and the mirrored closet doors were falling off the tracks. Very dangerous!

I call three days prior to my reservation asked if they had a Tesla or EV charging station onsite & the front desk rep made it clear they had one. Once I arrived there was no station, needed to google for one which is 10mins away. If I was directed or told differently I wouldn’t have booked here. Once I got to the Tesla charging station there was a hotel right in front walking distance looked cleaner. I reserved a non smoking room once I got into the hotel it recked of cigarette I have two children which are asthmatic and this ruined our stay all other rooms where booked so we had no choice but to stay. I called the other hotel since we are not obligated to have stayed there. But they were completely booked, I also requested towels and new bedding Friday night and they didn’t get there until we were ending our stay on Saturday. The couch was dirty and smelly the bed felt wet.

When I first arrived I was thrilled! The hotel had a beautiful interior and an older vibe to it. When I was given my room I was on the second floor and all the way to the end of the hall. That was a bit frustrating because I had a young child with me and so naturally I had a stroller. There was not an elevator on my end of the hall, Only had stairs Full kitchen was a plus Bed was worn and dented gave me a bad kink in my neck and hurt my back. The first night I stayed there was an alive cockroach in the room. There were spider webs in the room as well as spiders in them there were splashes of something all over the walls. The bathtub had calcifications all over the drain and there was rust or something stuck inside the paint that had chipped away inside the bath tub. This was very frustrating because I bathe my child. There was also a very precariously positioned vent in the shower that made me quite uncomfortable. I was too tired my first night there to bother with anything in the kitchen but my second night I decided to cook. There was no dish soap to wash the dishes no was it sponge. When I looked for all the provisions to cook with and plate up I found there was no silverware a dirty pan and the dishwasher had dirty dishes. The second night I found a much smaller cockroach after cooking running around on the kitchen counter. The entire time I was there the AC did not work which forced me to open a window that had no screen and allow the possibility of mosquitos. hav pics
View of untouched basket and trash that was left.
The room was dirty when we got there trash that we didn’t use smushed behind appliances
No silverware had to call down to the front desk and he ended up having to track some down to bring to me later on and still could only find a few pieces
AC was on lowest setting the whole time and did not work. It got very hot and stuffy in the room especially after cooking, there was no screen on the windows allowing mosquitoes and other bugs possible entry.

Ibalready posted a review this morning - I left early; it was so bad. Roaches in the kitchen and bathroom, and the fridge was so loud! And a dog barking in the room next door! I did NOT sleep well. I literally had to keep the lights on so that the roaches would stay back! OMG - I had to put my clothes bag in the fridge so roaches wouldnt get into my stuff! I had checked in late, then had to leave for an event and came back late and found all this above. Uggh! I will NEVER come back and I WANT A REFUND! SO DISAPPOINTED!!
