The hotel was nice with a great breakfast and pool area. Parents- watch your kids by the pool and make sure they walk. It gets REALLY slippery when wet!

We checked into the hotel for a family get away but did have to take care of some business. Although we were given two WiFi login information, we were not able to stay connected to the WiFi. It was such a hassle that we ended up using our mobile personal hotspot.

This was a great location. Close to Legoland. I do suggest renting a car like we did. Pool was nice, with a hot tub. Needs are a bit hard, but slept well anyways. Disappointed they didn't have beach towels that were listed on the website, but was offered bath towels instead which worked fine. The breakfast had lots of choices with hot food and cold foods. Would recommend to anyone.
