I love the location and how friendly all the staff are. What I didn't like is that it's very easy to hear the noise from all the rooms and in the hallways.

The property was in a perfect location, the room met our needs and for the price we would stay again. You can tell it is an older property, but it is well kept. I am used to staying in these types of suites and staff has always been very friendly. I am used to them greeting guest as they walk in and asking about their day. At this property, the staff even when not with other guest did not engage and when they did they did not appear happy. That was disappointing. The breakfast staff and cleaning staff were a different story. Cafe staff was very attentive, helped with making sure we had what we needed. Cleaning staff came by daily and even thought we may still be in the room they took care of what we needed. Amazing support staff!!!

This hotel was great and the staff was not only knowledgeable but also kind. The breakfast is great and the view from the breakfast area is also pretty nice (overlooks into the Disneyland Adventure Park). The pool was also a nice bonus. One big plus for us was how quick of a walk it was to Disneyland and dining places around. My son loved the room too and he already wants to go back.

The hotel is an easy 10 minute to the parks and has a wonderful complimentary breakfast in the mornings. A great way to fuel up and start your park day. We picked this hotel for the two room suite, we were two families staying in one suite and having separate rooms and bathrooms was convenient and comfortable for everyone. Everything was also nice and clean, we will definitely book again.

Convenient location to Disney Resort except when staying until closing. Anywhere but on-site Disney hotels would feel like a long walk back. Hotel in great condition except one bank of elevators had one of two elevators out of service the whole time (one used to access the breakfast area). Great breakfast and underground paid parking (not free). Great housekeeping and hotel staff.

Our room was clean, the staff were amazing, and it was a close walk to Disney. The only downside about this place was that the walls are thin and the elevators felt a little concerning.

Nice hotel with weird elevator situation!

The elevator situation is weird. We stayed on 2nd floor and we gad to take a doierent elevator to get there. Also, breakfast room was on 5th floor and a diierent elevator was needed for that. It was in a nice big room witjlh plenty of food. This is a good place to stay as it is so close to Adventure Park.
