Stay could be better

Liked: location was convenient to highway and beach.
Disliked: Property needs to improve the cleanliness of facilities and rooms, strengthen wifi reception in rooms, and quality of breakfast. We found ants in the room coming from outside. Staff need to make an effort to clean. We tried to wipe the floors with towel and towel turned black :(

Liked: They tried to put me in a smoking room, which would have set off my allergies. Room I ended up in was in a construction and paint zone. Some fumes were smelt.
Disliked: Under construction, was woken up by loud banging at 08:20 AM.

Liked: Staff was friendly enough to discount after the mishap we had
Disliked: we booked a non smoking room and received a smoking room, the room reaked of smoke as well as the entire hallway we stayed in.

Liked: Staff was exceptionally nice. Very close to the beach. Great stay!!!!

Liked: Although the Extended Stay America brand is not one of favorite hotel chains this one had been completely renovated and would qualify as an exceptional 2-1/2 star hotel for any brand. We would make it a point to stay there again when in the area.
Disliked: We were told that the outdoor pool was heated but it was not.

Liked: Great location for us. Right next to a Dennys and we could walk to the beach. Room was very big.
Disliked: If I knew how big the room was I would have just got 1 instead of 2 rooms as there was easily enough room for our family of 5 in one room.

Liked: It felt like home with the kitchen.
Disliked: The free way was too close, and the beds were full size not queen as stated on the site.

Liked: Hotel was very close to Legoland, and was very close driving distance to the beach and other tourist sites. Room had kitchenette and pots, pans, dishes and silverware are available at the front desk.
Disliked: Hotel does not have daily house keeping services.

Liked: The location and parking was good.
Disliked: It was really dirty. A washcloth left on the rod the shower curtain hangs on, change on the floor and garbage in the kitchen can. It also stunk terribly from someone that cooked in the room prior to my stay. The service was terriblr.
