Pros:

location near Legoland

Cons:

They gave us a wheelchair-accessible room that smelled like a sewer. The gym was claustrophobic, and the breakfast was just okay.

Worth the value and high end
Pros:

Customer service desk was great! Though I believe they were understaffed any amenities asked for was given. The breakfast buffet was excellent, my family loved it here!

Cons:

That you would need 3 nights stay to get your room cleaned. We had 2 nights stay and thought the room would be cleaned every night.
