It would be nice if they asked upon check in if you needed shampoo and/or a hairdryer as these were not avaliable without contacting the front desk. The bed was super comfortable and we could walk to breakfast at the local shopping center.

The carpet in the hallway really needs to be deep cleaned. It smelled horrible and you can see stains all over. The breakfast was very small. It was ok. Overall it was an ok place to stay. We went to Legoland so it was perfect for us to just sleep.

Blood and dog hair on the sheets. They didn’t even clean the sheets from the previous guests. Just remade the bed. So disgusting. DO NOT STAY HERE.

Mmm

The bathroom was disgusting. Shower had hair in it, sink was clogged and dirty, we had to use the kitchen sink to brush our teeth and wash our face. Floors were also dirty. I’ve stayed here a time before and the room was super clean, so I don’t know what happened this time around. Wont be staying here again. Other than the cleanliness, its a good hotel to stay in if you are going to Legoland, but just be aware of the cleanliness.

Free breakfast was coffee and cupcake. The main receptionist is very unfriendly, doesn’t acknowledge the customers in front of her, they don’t even provide shampoo. Will not stay here again.

Overall great place to stay and affordable comparing to other hotels in north SD county especially in July . It was easy check in . Room was clean . Staff was responsive to my needs . The only two things I had issues with is the walls / ceilings are light . I hear a lot foot traffic above us even when it’s late and very early morning (4am) there is movement happening outside the hallway. Perhaps it was a one time occurrence during our stay but it woke up multiple times during our stay there . Lastly, the bed mattress are OK . Not terrible but my back was sore so the are a bit stiff in my opinion .
