I like all the amenities that it came with. Staying so close to Legoland and having private entrance access to Legoland was a perk. The only thing was hair was left in the bathroom it may have been from housekeeping but that just grossed me out. Pretty sure bed linen wasn’t change but my son peed the bed so it was changed the next day. House keeping was very friendly and helpful. The only downfall to this resort is paying for parking which if you book 3rd party you might not catch that. If you have any issues just call or text and they on it.

The resort was one of our favorites! We will definitely be back. The rooms were clean and well stocked. The pools and hot tubs were so fun. The only downside was the lullaby’s played at the pool! The private path to Lego land was a game changer!
