“Excellent value so close to Disney”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 January 2012
4
people found this review helpful

We stayed here at the end of Dec for three nights and can only praise the staff for running a great hotel.

We stayed here, as no doubt everyone else does, for our trip to Disney and Knotts Berry Farm.

Accepting it is a Holiday Inn Express and not an Intercontinental, it delivered everything we hoped for and for a price that was excellent value for money.

it is 10 minutes walk to Disney so ticks the box, it includes a limited breakfast but it is fine and saves time in the morning, the rooms are clean with plenty of space and the beds were comfortable. The parking is free and so is wifi, plus we got a cookie on arrival that my son really appreciated - it is the small things that make a big difference.

With spending most of our time not in the room, we choose not the push the budget up for a higher star hotel but being honest there was no need to do so for this type of break.

we would certainly stay here in the future if visiting Anaheim again.

Room Tip: We asked for a room with a view of the fireworks and was given one which was geat.

I was given a very warm welcome by the staff as a Priority Club member. The room was great and I can't say enough good things about the breakfast in the Great room. All the staff was warm and friendly.

“Best place to stay in Anaheim!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 January 2012

people found this review helpful

What a gem! They offered an incredible rate and we were minutes away from Disneyland! The service was awesome. We were only going to stay for two nights, but liked it so much we extended our stay. The breakfast was well set up and plentiful. They even kept it open later than advertised as a "New Year's" present. The staff are courteous and seem to like working there. We will definitely return next time we're in Anaheim. Thank you!!!

Thank you for the review. We think that we offer reasonable rates and remember that you can always book an Advance Purchase rate as long as you are reserving a room more than a week in advance. This is a deeply discounted rate because we charge your credit card in advance.

We will see you the next time you come to visit!

“Fine place to stay for Disney Land”

We moved to this hotel from another because it offered more room for the same affordable price. We walked to Disney Land from this hotel. They served a nice breakfast.

“Noisy”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 December 2011
5
people found this review helpful

We stayed here for 2 nights, the usual standard for a holiday inn, clean room and comfortable bed. The location is good, 5 to 10 minute walk to Disneyland. However, noise was an issue. We stayed on the 3rd floor and I think elephants stayed above us. The footsteps and thumping above us was the loudest and woke us up each morning. I have stayed at many hotels and heard footsteps above, but this was crazy, each thumping of footsteps above us, it felt like someone was about to crash through the ceiling. Another was the noise from the hallway outside our room. I know it was holiday season but loud voices could be heard from the hallway, peoples conversations word for word. People would congregate in the hallways and have loud conversations especially late in the night. Running up and down the hallway from kids, thump thump thump. Perhaps signs could be placed in hallways for guests to be quiet for consideration of other guests and NO running in the hallways. Breakfast I cannot comment on, it was lined up out the door, holiday season, so I can understand this. Would I stay at this hotel again, NO due to the noise I experienced.

Thank you for your review.
We are sorry that you wouldn't stay with us again. It sounds like you had some loud neighbors. While we can't control how loud someone's footsteps are, we would have been happy to get involved and tried to get the noises kept to a minimum, had we known. The best thing to do is to mention this to the front desk so that they can step in and fix the problem, if possible.

We hope you will try us again.
