This is not the most luxurious or newest hotel I've ever stayed at, but it had everything I need - The whole place was clean and comfortable, and my room had a GREAT bath tub, a nice little balcony, and decent wi-fi. There is also a fitness center with the basics, which I used, and a heated pool that I didn't get a chance to.

The staff went above and beyond to help me find good local food, where to get a shuttle to Disneyland (and buy an extra bag for the return trip), and were always welcoming and courteous.

I can’t say enough nice things about this property! The location is amazing so if you want to be within walking distance to everything, this is the place. It is a beautifully maintained property, super clean and modern. I stayed 3 nights with my daughter. Every staff member was friendly and went out of their way to help…they were all really kind and genuinely wanted to help. The shuttle service is affordable and very convenient as well! My room was comfortable, clean and quiet. I will definitely be staying here again! 10/10

It was fine. Considering how much I spent, I feel there could be some upgrades, especially compared to other places close by. The first room I was in was fine except for a loud sound of laundry. They offered to switch my room, and I ended up in one that was slightly smaller but at least quiet.
The water pressure wasn’t great. It cost 8.50 to get a travel toothbrush and paste. Limited snack offerings.
The room service was a nice touch, and actually probably similar to what I would have spent going out. It was also great to have a mini fridge.
All in all, I think next time I’d either splurge on something a little nicer or go a bit further out for way cheaper and rent a car to get around.

The lounge food was amazing, huge portions and the pool was nice. That's the positive. The room looked fine until you looked closer, and the bathroom was extremely dated with yellow subway tile and the toilet barely flushed. No washcloths and just bar soap. The staff also entered my room with the do not disturb sign on my door and before check out. They took all my food out of the fridge in the 10 minutes before I came back to do a final check of the room. The noise is also terrible from the floors above and in the hallway. I definitely will not stay here again. There is a fridge and microwave but don't try to use the couch bed unless you want to sleep on springs. Closeness to Disney and Convention Center are the only positives to this hotel. The breakfast is expensive and the same as other hotels include for free. Ice cream and snacks are self checkout which was fine.

Staff was very friendly and helpful. The room was clean but dated. The bed wasn't that comfortable. I said yes to room service they showed up at 8am I said I was still there and to come back later but when I came back to my room later in the evening I could tell they never came back. My big issue is with the hotel itself and false room description. The overall hotel description was that the rooms had microwaves and that was a lie. When I go on trips I meal prep I do not like to eat out every night, plus being vegan my opinions are very limited so it's easier to bring my own food for breakfast and dinner. My only options were to upgrade to a suite or use the microwave in the lobby which I'm sure is touched all day by kids and adults dirty hands and coughed on all day no thank you. They need to specify that only suites have microwaves because I would have not stayed hereif I knew that information . Or just get microwaves for the rooms!!

The room was pretty clean and was facing Disney which was great! First night got to see the fireworks. The room had a fridge and microwave. The side bed had linens. The staff was nice upon check in. However we lost items after check out that were left behind and yes it’s our fault but hotel housekeeping of course doesn’t seem to be honest about lost and found items especially when it’s Disney items. I was advised to fill out a form online and it was be updated if it’s turned in. It’s pretty upsetting as they were my daughter’s gifts from Disney for her birthday. I would hope someone from housekeeping would be honest about it and turn it in. The front desk also failed to call me back with and update I had to call them which tells me there was no trust in this hotel staff when’s guests leave things behind

I am not a picky person. I just want a place to sleep while I visit Disneyland. This hotel is the bottom of the bottom. They advertised a shuttle to the parks but on arrival they said the city discontinued it and they don’t have anything. It is NOT walkable and I paid for it by trying. The rooms are old. The shower curtain was torn and barely hung. I turned the water all the way on hot in the morning, and still ended up with a cold shower. The beds squeaked anytime anyone moved in their bed so that made for a long long night. Learn from me…..

We paid $30 per night for parking, but we get charged an extra $30 because the event at the convention lasted longer than expected.

Front desk supervisor Raymond G. couldn’t waive our parking cost for the extra 3 hours overtime. We have a big group that booked more than 20 rooms at this hotel every year for the event and a 3 hrs parking couldn’t be waived. We are deeply disappointed. Maybe we will have reconsider when booking next year.

The location of the property is why I originally picked this place. If you’re going to the convention center it is about a five minute easy walk and the shuttle to Disneyland stops right out front and is super easy way to get to the park. Rooms are spacious and well appointed, with super comfy beds and a pullout bed in the couch. The rooms and the property are all very clean and well maintained. This was my forth time staying here for conventions and Disney fun and every time has been a pleasant stay. One issue to be aware of is the parking lot fills up on the weekends and if you go out and party late, when you get back to the hotel the lot is jam packed with no open spaces. Great place to stay and will return.

Road noise is loud, too. We were on the 8th floor. Hotel itself is nice, and super convenient to the convention center plus can walk to Disney in 15 min or so with crossing streets. However, the beds are terrible. Even my 15 yr old was miserable

It was conveniently across the street from the toys story parking lot but I don't think we'll be staying here again. There's plenty of better hotels in the area. Checkin took a while as the receptionist was having a long conversation with a guest, someone clearly cut me in line at check in but the employees decided to help them and ignored me. We immediately encountered an issue with our toilet not flushing properly, the hotel was apparently booked out so we couldn't transfer rooms; maintenance arrived to fix it but it was never fully fixed. We dealt with the toilet issues during our whole stay. Rooms were outdated and walls were very thin. The bed felt like we were sleeping on cardboard with a mattress topper. We had a schedule room cleanly but when we came back mid day at around 2-4pm, the room wasnt made up yet.

Our only trouble was parking, I called ahead to make sure we could add a second vehicle to the room bill and check the rate, and again at check-in. Evening of check-in when the second care arrived we were told we could not add the second car due to a convention. The situation was straightened out later but it did add some stress to our getaway.

The property location is great, old but relative well maintained.
The room doesn't do a good job blocking the sound from next doors due to the \"shared doors\" in between. Half of the nights I stayed I can hear very loud talking next door until 12am.
Also the level of service provided by the staff varies. Some are really not good at serving customers.
First, I had a pain checking in to the hotel as they can't find my reservation through Expedia.
Then they were really struggle to find the way to get my mac to connect to the WiFi, which has never had any issue in any other hotels I stayed.
And a few other things like this as well.
There was one young lady who was put on the spot without proper training or qualification, as she apparently was not able to do the work well independently.

Hotel is awesome, it’s definitely a dated property and you can tell for sure. Staff seemed very dismissive ( front desk at least ) but housekeeping and maintenance were SUPER helpful and friendly.

I got a free breakfast included with my stay and was told becuase I went through Expedia… and it was very tasty. Although if you pay for the breakfast it was a lot more disappointing than what’s advertised. There is a small selection and food is average!

Overall this hotel property was very pleasant and I and more than willing to return. It also sits SUPER close to the Disneyland resort ( 20 min walk ) and just across from the Toy Story parking lot ( which offers free shuttles to the Disneyland resort ) which is super convenient.

This review is from a offical travel agency ( STARLIT TRAVEL GUIDE/ STARLIT HOSPITALITY GROUP ) this hotel has revived a 7-10 stars and is recommended to clients. This feedback is disclosed in our official website and is subject to change at any time.

Room and check-in/check-out process were fine. I called the night before to find out about parking fee per day and was told $36. When I was checking out, I told the guy helping me I was planning on keeping the car there for the day while we visited the parks, and I mentioned the $36 fee. He insisted I find other means of parking because of the cheerleading competition nearby and that the price was around $50 or $60 for that day. I asked if he could confirm the price and the other guy he asked wasn't sure either.

The whole thing felt like they wanted me to leave so they could have someone from the event park there instead. My card was charged the $36 fee and not the $50/$60 they claimed, so I'm even more confused as to why they tried to get me to leave and find parking elsewhere. That situation left a bad taste and I have to knock the rating down a star.
