10/10 Excellent
"You need to be careful with the “occupied” sign at your door. My room wasn't cleaned by housekeeping, I have to call and request it. I didn't know who had the sign in my door, I thought one of the staff put it when she realize we were still in the room after knocking that morning. Everything else was perfect! Stayed for 5 days, went to Legoland for a day which was 3miles away. The rest of the stay, we spent it in the hotel, kid friendly. Went out for food after eating a couple of times in the hotel. Very nice area! Very nice neighborhood! It's worth the money. I would recommend staying here. I would come back again."
