forumWhat families say
Rakuten Travel rating 4.09 out of 5 (1,944 reviews). Families with elementary school children say the free co-sleeping is a real help, and the view of a rocket from the room went down well with families too. Several guests were also satisfied with the breakfast buffet. On the other hand, some report that breakfast is crowded and that it felt unsafe when young children ran around the buffet.
