Anaheim Majestic Garden Hotel

Anaheim Majestic Garden Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"My room was very spacious, quiet and comfortable. The rose garden, even though excessively decorated for Halloween, was a very pleasant spot in which to have my morning coffee. The coffee provided wasn't great. However the shuttle service to Disneyland was! All of the drivers I encountered were pleasant and helpful, some even playful. My only real issue was with the shower curtain. It was too short (or hung too high), and didn't stay inside the tub, so a shower resulted in a pond on the bathroom floor. It made for a slippery floor and was a nuisance to clean up. Another guest mentioned her room had the same problem."
