Easy 10 minute walk to Disneyland. Plenty of options for quick food and sit down restaurants. Room was perfect for my wife and I and our 2 kids. We had a room with bunk beds which the kids loved and a view toward Disneyland allowing us to watch the fireworks show perfectly from our room.

Great stay for Disney
Great view for the fireworks at Disney and the room was nice overall. Only complaint was the big dome windows on the top floor floors Don’t have any coverings so it’s very bright in the morning.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
First time staying here. We liked it a lot! Nice clean rooms, great service! We really was happy discovering that we were able to walk to Disneyland, saving us a bit of $$$. The only very slight issue we could have had, was the parking. My partner and I had to drive separately, so we had two cars. If there wasn’t enough room at the hotel parking, he would have had to park off site. Luckily, that didn’t happen. Yes, I realize it’s Anaheim and in the Disney area, but it’s still no fun if that happens. Overall, an excellent stay, and we are planing to make this a Dec tradition.

Regina

Disliked: Cleanliness
Overall it was okay. It served its purpose regarding place to sleep and location (walking distance). Room was not clean properly before entering, said you can sleep up to 5 that was not the case, only 1 roll of toilet paper for 3 nights, iron and ironing board broken. Contacted housekeeping who sounded annoyed but provided additional items and replaced broken items. Parking is only one car per room which required the other car we had to park at another parking garage which was not walking distance. This was not noted anywhere or we would have traveled together.
