"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."
