Disappointing trip

It was very noisy and we were woken up multiple times during the night . They only had one elevator working so we had to carry our luggage up and down the 3 flights of stairs as well as use stairs to get to the 5th floor breakfast. In the past we have enjoyed our stay at this hotel - disappointed in the service and accommodations this trip.

Family of 10!

We stayed there with the whole family. There was 10 of us, We stayed in the superior, double suites, along with the deluxe room for my son and his family. We loved our stay if I had anything negative to say it would be that in the double room there was only one thermostat to control both rooms so of course some of us were cold some of us were hot. so that was a little bit of a challenge, but the front desk gave us extra blankets so they’re going to solve the problem. We did hear a little bit of outside noise with the rental car place next door during the night. Their alarm kept going off, but that is of no fault to the hotel. Overall, the staff was so amazing. Shout out to the front desk who was so accommodating and so nice! And the breakfast crew was so friendly, Everything was very clean, I just truly felt like we were with family…. Desert Palms will definitely be our place for us to call Our Disneyland home !!!

Parking fees are too high, and the fact they exist at all is just another junk fee and BS. The thermostats dont have a constant on feature so you hear every single sound in the whole hotel. Bring a sound machine so you can actually sleep.

If I could give this hotel a 10/10 I would. This hotel was perfect for Disney! It was about a 5-10 minute walk to Disney. The hotel staff was amazing! They were understanding with parking and anything we needed they got it to us fast. This is definitely a kids/family hotel. Overall, it was quiet and you do hear kids running around but that is to be expected. When we go back to Disney we will book here again! It was perfect. Thank you for making our trip amazing.
