"Great location in walking distance to Disneyland - takes 13 mins to walk. Rooms were large, clean and comfortable. Starbucks downstairs was handy for grabbing your morning coffee before heading into the park. Pool was a nice size and enjoyed cocktails from the bar. We would have liked to enjoy the fire pits and outside bar however they were never open in the evening unfortunately. Would certainly stay here again"

"Great hotel! It was clean, the staff was helpful, and a good breakfast is included. The beds are comfortable. It is located right around the corner from the main gate to Disneyland, only about a 10 minute walk. There is a CVS store right across the street. The only downside is the pool area is a little small and is constantly in the shade."
