Great Disney Location
Very close to Disneyland! The rooms were comfortable, microwave, mini fridge and Kureg coffee machine were great to have on a family holiday. 6 minute drive to Von's for groceries.

Short walk from hotel
MImi's Cafe next door did a good breakfast for a good value, especially the kids meals. Much better than any of the food options inside Disneyland.

Not Worth the Thought
The staff was not helpful. The room was not not up to standards. Smelled bad, not sure if the sheets were as clean as they could be. There are 0 smoking rooms even if they have a balcony. On top of that the toilet was like a cheap bar toilet, felt gross just sitting on it! Save your money and go elsewhere!

Good value for the money
The hotel has everything a traveler with family would need. The waterpark and pool is great value for the price paid, and a relief after a long day of standing in theme park lines.

Great for family with toddlers to school age
this was our first time in this hotel and we will definitely come back next time we go to disneyland. my son had a wonderful time at the castaway cove pool for kids, i think no other hotels have this kiddie pool and it sure was a hit. it would have been better to have a microwave in the standard 2 regular bed or 2 queens, because we always bring food cooked from home to save money. the location was close to disneyland and you can go take a break then go back especially if you have a little one.

Family vacation
We loved, loved, loved this hotel!! Room was quiet and well maintained. The kids LOVED the "water park". There were days that they wanted to go to swim more than visit Disneyland. Shuttle stop just outside of hotel was very useful at night when you don't want to carry the kids home the half mile from Disney. Staff was very friendly and always available for help when needed. Can't say anything bad about the hotel. We are definantly going to stay there again at our next trip to Orange County. The free nightly fireworks display was an added bonus, the baby could sleep while our older one got to watch from just outside the room already in her PJ's.

Took the exact same trip 3 years prior but at that time we stayed at the newly remodeled Sheraton Park. This trip was every bit as nice! We were able to walk to Disneyland/California Adventure, plenty of places to eat (i.e. McDonalds, Mimi's cafe). Enjoyed the stay, both pools, and our 7 year old loved the water park on site. The store in Building 1, had everything you could want and for pretty decent prices, especially compared to Disneyland. On our final night (and a 15 hour day at Disneyland) we came back to find our room had been flooded by a AC unit leak upstairs. The management moved us to a room close by, gave a fair discount, and allowed a later checkout. No one is perfect, but we appreciated the effort in making it better for us.

Short walk from hotel
Allow for walking time to park, especially on Magical Mornings. Five minutes for fast walkers, 15 for slower.

With only a short walk to Disneyland
With only a short walk to Disneyland this is a great place to stay - this was our third visit. Clean, comfortable with helpful staff. What more can you ask for?
