1. I requested connecting rooms. Instead I was given adjacent rooms. That's not the same thing.
2. When I made the reservation, I was not told there would be a parking fee. $22!
3. The thermostat was almost impossible to read.

The hotel itself really lacked on the room service & cleaning of our room. I’m used to my room being cleaned a certain number of times during a long stay (old towels being taken, trash being removed, beds being made) & that didn’t happen organically. Also, for the hotel to charge 22 dollars a night to park without it even being valet or a garage or even covered for that matter was a little ridiculous. The location was pretty but could’ve definitely got a hotel actually on a walkable beach for a comparable price.

Great location and fun games to play
A wonderful location with basically a private beach in front (walk across road) and lots of fun things nearby (Legoland, museums, and The Flower Fields). Jacuzzi was a great temperature which is the main reason my wife picks a hotel. Uniquely they have fun games available for free to play (ping pong, corn hole, darts, etc.). Service was top notch and friendly. I loved their buffet breakfast though my wife was disappointed in their continental breakfast not having the berries and greek yogurt as advertised (only Yoplait and Mellons).

Enjoyed our stay. I like that the room doesn’t have carpet. Clean and the area is quite nice. The kids had fun on the pool and very close to ocean views.

I’m a little disappointed that you have to pay a separate fee for parking should be included in it rates
