10 min from legoland
Checked in late, customer service was awsome. Very friendly and very informative of the area. Room was big and very clean. Big fluffy pillows which was awsome, that helped us get some sleep. Hot breakfast buffet in the morning! We stayed at 4 different hotels this trip and this was the best by far. 20/10, would stay here again in a heartbeat. Gonna actually start looking for holiday inns wherever i go.

6/10 Good

The night staff was polite, the facility was clean quiet and safe. There are no USB charging i the rooms or lobby and the shower door handle was missing a screw so it was hanging off. The morning desk clerk was not very friendly but the breakfast cook was exceptional. Overall this would not be a place to stay if you are on a business trip. The wifi was horrible..

8/10 Very Good

The place was nice. Nothing fancy. No smart tv which made watching tv at night challenging. There was no shelf in the shower to put your personal toiletries and no towel rack to hang hand towels. But it was clean. They provided cleaning services daily. Breakfast in the morning was great. Daily variety so you weren’t eating the same thing every morning. Very close to the beach.

Very clean place, great breakfast, room technology is outdated and could use an upgrade, desk employees always seemed distracted. Parking is not free.

Everyone we encountered was friendly and helpful. Had an important meeting and asked for a room with ethernet connection. Room didn't have one and the wifi crashed during the meeting, causing problems for me. The bed was extremely hard and the towels were thin and scratchy. The rooms need a refresh. Was conveniently located near the freeway and one of our destinations: Legoland.
