A short ride-share trip from Legoland, which was the reason we chose this hotel. Off the main road, it is very quiet. The staff was very friendly, room was clean and comfortable, but a couple of irritating things. We parked on the north side of the parking area against the tall bushes. When we came out the next morning, they had shed a lot of stuff on our car; stuff that was kinda sticky and didn't blow off just by driving. Avoid the tall bushes. Also the room's sink area had a motion switch which sounds great, but in the middle of the night if you need to use the bathroom, the light clicks on and burns your eyeballs out. Just a small nightlight would have been nicer. And also you can't have the closet doors and bathroom door open at the same time. And we had to turn on all the lights in the room to get enough light. All small annoyances; I would still stay here again.
