Unfortunately there was not room service, They charged me a resort fee of $38.00 when i checked in. I then asked about a spa or massage area and was informed they dont have one. I asked about the resort fee and the front desk person said" we have heated pools. So staying there was over 300.00 for I night. Not happy..

check in was amazing, we were able to check in before going to Legoland. This is our third time staying here and the front desk staff is always very nice and accommodating. My only complaint is the breakfast food was cold and the server was a little overwhelmed.

Pool was nice, property was quiet, walking distance to Lego land, friendly staffs. Possible rodent in room (food left out on kitchen counter was found bit into when return to room), obvious stains on chairs and sofa (needed to cover with towels before sitting). Water pressure can be a bit stronger (didn’t feel completely clean even after showers). BIGGEST COMPLAINT OF PROPERTY: I FOUND IT VERY RUDE TO RECEIVED A TEXT MESSAGE AFTER CHECKING OUT TO BE TOLD TO DO THINGS SUCH AS BEGGING TRASH AND OTHER CHORES ON THE NEXT VISIT!! A COMPLETE TURN OFF AND WILL REALLY RECONSIDER STAYING THERE AGAIN IN THE FUTURE 😡😡😡😡
