Positive Reviews
positive:
Friendliest staff you'll ever meet
The staff at this place are a credit to the hotel. Their friendly and professional manner makes them the most talked about feature of the hotel which is saying something. They are full of useful information and love to stop and chat with the guests.
positive:
Wonderful location
Whether you're off to Disneyland for some magical fun, or you're heading to the beach for some sun and sand, you'll find that this hotel is perfectly located for your trip. The beaches are a ten-minute drive while Disneyland and Knott's Berry Farm are about twenty or thirty minutes away.
positive:
Free shuttle is a great bonus
The shuttle service that operates between the hotel and the airport is ideal for those flying into town. It takes the stress out of finding the hotel. They'll even take you to other locations within a certain radius of the hotel during your stay.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Paid breakfast too expensive
The breakfast on offer is quite good, but the charge is the same regardless of what you eat. Some guests that only had a bagel were unhappy that they had to pay the same as those that had a cooked breakfast. In a hotel like this they expected a free continental option.
negative:
Paid parking not ideal
The paid parking is reasonable enough for the area but because you are staying at an expensive hotel, you'd expect to get a discounted rate or even free parking. And to top it all off, you have to self-park.
negative:
Extra charges for standard amenities
The rooms at this hotel do not come with refrigerators or microwaves as standard and unless you ask the staff you will be unaware that you can request them. The catch though is that you have to pay for them.
