LEGOLAND California Hotel

LEGOLAND California Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"My kids loved this hotel and so did we. The hotel and room was clean. They had so many fun amenities for kids. My only complaint is that a lot of the staff in the lobby area were not very friendly. They seemed bothered that we had questions and often misinformed us. I was not a fan of the self check-in. It feels very impersonal. The pool staff was very friendly and helpful. Overall we had a nice stay."
