Nathan, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We stayed here 4 nights on our Sea World/Legoland/Beach trip. It was very clean, the staff was very friendly and the beds were very comfortable. The breakfast had so many great options. My kids looked forward to the pancakes and waffles every morning of our stay. We took advantage of the pool and hot tub as well. Such a great stay! We will 100% be back!!

Corin, 3-night trip

Overnight stay family

Check in was fine wanted a $45 fee for early check in at 3pm. Room was noisy, street noise and neighbors. Clean but needed maintenance.
Melissa, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Overall just okay

Good: Beds were decent, room was spacious. Bad: Room smelled really funky. The carpet was wet under the AC unit. The shower tab was hard to pull, and parking is expensive.
Amber, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Budget friendly and great location

Older hotel located very close to airport, zoo, and sea world. Stayed in room 336 and was able to see fireworks shooting from Sea World every night. Rooms are smaller than how we interpreted by photos. Parking is $26 a night and found out about this added cost upon check in. Other than that, our stay was enjoyable and we made good use of the morning breakfast and pool.
Allan Tram, 6-night trip

Scabies!!!!

Stay far away from this place! I got scabies after being there one night! It’s been a living nightmare!! DO NOT STAY HERE!
Lacken, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

The freeway noise is intense

The hotel was not at all what we expected. The beds were not at all comfortable and the room is so close to the freeway. The loud freeway noise was all we could hear, even over our sound machine. The lady at the front desk was very helpful and kind, but we cut our three nights to just one night because the room just wasn’t convenient or comfortable.
April, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good
