Pros: My whole stay was great. Close parking garage, free breakfast, friendly staff, great clean rooms. Legoland is like 15 minutes and it helps that the hotel is right next to the freeway.
Cons: The only thing I didn't like its that the curtains in the room couldn't be closed.
Okay
5.1
Pros: Good location for business needs. Convenience store in back. Streaming video worked over wi-fi, so that helped offset the poor SD quality, overpriced, in-room entertainment system.
Cons: Room smelled like urine. Bathroom smelled like some took a huge dump right before I got there. I had to leave the fan running in the bathroom all week. Seemed to be a film of something all over the room. Poor entertainment system. All rentals, including very old films cost $19! Also, adult content is featured very prominently on the TV's entertainment landing page--very tacky. Do NOT recommend bringing children here. Breakfast is "meh," but standard for this sort of chain.

Pros: The hotel is clean and the bed was comfortable.
Cons: Parking is an extra cost per day! To self park your own car in a mostly empty lot. There is no refrigerator, but they can bring one to your room for an extra cost. There is no microwave. There is nothing special about this hotel. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone unless they were visiting one of the surrounding businesses and someone else was reimbursing the trip.
