The pool area was terrible. The water park for kids was ice cold. The main pool was cold too when it was supposed to be 82 degrees. The front desk staff were super unfriendly and not fit for customer service. The walls are paper thin and I could hear everything. Less than 10 min walk to Disneyland was the only thing this hotel had going for them. Will never stay here again and I wouldn’t recommend it.
