Pros:

Close to Legoland

Cons:

Got two rooms, one smelled like cigarettes, the bedding in both were stained, the toilet seat in one was loose, the air was freezing in one hot in the other, both rooms needed painting, not enough towels won't stay there again. Plus some of the guest were loud and swearing and homeless staying in property

Poor
Pros:

Nothing.

Cons:

Although the staff were kind and helpful, the facility itself was disappointing. The floors were not clean, the bed linens did not feel clean, and the pillows were extremely worn out, almost completely flat, making it difficult to get a good night's sleep.
Considering the condition of the facility, the price was far too high. I will definitely avoid staying here again in the future.

Just spend the extra money and go with the Holiday Inn next door.
Pros:

Only the location was decent.

Cons:

First they gave me the key to someone else’s room. I opened the door and immediately knew someone else was already staying in that room. My room was noisy and the AC didn’t work well at all. The floor was dirty, only a thin blanket and two lumpy pillows, and there were a ton of people that seemed like they were living in the hotel. My dad (who I was visiting) had to loan me pillows and an extra blanket. I wore socks in the room at all times because it was gross. He also had to walk me to my room every time because there were just random men hanging out smoking in the hall outside my room constantly. I’ll never stay here again. It was loud at night with kids screaming and banging and people fighting. Also no housekeeping.
