Accomodations Review:
|
The rooms and the motel itself are by no means upscale but
they are clean and generally quiet. They are average size with a sitting
area and a sleeping area with a half-wall in between. Rooms have a coffee
maker with coffee provided, cable TV, in room movie and Nintendo rentals |
Rate/Night (for your stay):
|
Approximately $80 / night with taxes. |
# of Restaurants/Lounges:
|
One restaurant. |
Restaurant/Lounge Review:
|
Not a stellar dining experience. It's a step down from
Denny's. I wouldn't pay to eat here but you do receive a coupon for each
day of your stay for a free breakfast for each member of your party. You
have the option of a table service pancake and egg breakfast in the
downstairs restaurant or continental breakfast buffet upstairs. The table
service breakfast is OK but nothing memorable. Kid's do get the option of
a Mickey pancake. You get a very small portion of scrambled eggs but the
pancakes are filling and fairly decent. The upstairs buffet has sweet
rolls, muffins, toast and prepackaged juice. |
Activities/Facilities Available:
|
Sundries Shop, Pool, Hot Tub |
Pool Description/Comments:
|
Small pool but it seems to get a lot of use. It’s open
until at least 10PM
usually so if you are looking for peace and quiet before then get a room
that’s not right next to it. |
Amenities Provided:
|
Free shuttle to and from Disneyland (don’t bother though,
when you can walk it in 5 minutes), Room Service, Guest Laundry, No Pets
Permitted, Complimentary Theme Park Shuttle, Cable TV, Non-Smoking Rooms
Available, Smoke Detectors. |
Other Comments:
|
Location, location, location. If you are looking for a no
frills but decent room this is a good value and you can’t beat the easy
walk to Disneyland. |
