Good value
Pretty good location and a good value for the money. I wasn’t thrilled about being assigned to a room with handicap showers without being asked.

Night without sleep
The room was ok, it was a family gateway and when we were about to go to sleep the next door neighbors started doing their dirty laundry and my kids could hear it. We needed to turn on the TV again because we had kids and for sure we didn’t want to hear them do their dirty laundry.My kids finally fell asleep but they didn’t let us sleep.

New renovated room, A. Property and area around, A. The hair in my sink, shower and on the wall? Buuummmerrr... and not hard to miss. I can understand missing the Pube on the wall. But in the renovated white shower, and two in the white sink? Tough to justify. Check in crew, A. Morning crew that didn't have coffee in the lobby at 7.30a? Aloof and unprepared. I know they weren't the ones drinkin' the coffee! Still half asleep? But... over all, for the value? not terrible and would stay again. I'll bring my own clorox wipes next time.

We had to move to another room as the initial room was under construction. The 2nd room was under another room where the plumbing was bad. It sounded like a helicopter landed on the property each time the guests above us would use their restroom. Overall, the front desk did what they could considering the night shift only has 1 employee working. The hotel is dated and not near the water. There is no view of the ocean and not in walking distance of Legoland.

Room was clean and recently renovated. They should put more towel hooks in the bathroom area, there was only two small hooks. Overall a great hotel right across the outlet mall and next to some great restaurants.

Less expensive than the Hilton
Need a car or get used to taxis; aside from gas stations and fast food it’s not really near anything except legoland, for which there is a shuttle. Walking to the beach is about 20 mins, part of which is across a bridge with no sidewalk. Exciting. Had pretty bad sleep here; old plumbing making banging and howling noises when the neighbouring rooms showered (at 6am). Room was otherwise comfortable, bed good, but decor felt slightly worn. Random $40 charge for “amenities” on checkin; whatever.
