Took my son to Lego Land NY and it was fantastic. The Hotel is awesome, and breakfast is amazing. The elevator has a dance/disco them that was a hit with my lil man and the over all experience was great. If ya want to skip the Hotel, obviously visit the Park. There are a variety of rides, Mini Land is a wonder and it looks like they are making updates already, even though they only opened last year.
I bought a package stay online that even included parking. I thought I hit the lottery. However, the morning of the day my son and I originally were scheduled to go, I tested positive for COVID. I admit, when I bought the hotel and park package, I did not buy trip insurance. I had no intention of canceling, but I mean I got COVID and I did what I thought was the best thing to do and rescheduled. I was charged a Booking Adjustment and an Amendment fee totaling $108.94 and frankly that pisses me off. After reading the trip insurance policy a few times the morning I tested positive for COVID I kind of think that even if I did purchase the insurance, I would have been charged these fees anyway.
An affordable trip became ridiculously overpriced because of a virus. While I hope to visit again soon, I would rather spend my money at an establishment that does not outrageously charge a customer when they try to do what they think is right.
