After staying inside the park at Grand California the last 2 times I'll admit I've been spoiled as far as location & cleanliness but since the price is so high I thought why not try another hotel this vacation? So I went to Tripadvisor & found how high this place was rated and thought why not? Well after staying there I will tell you why not. I found the hotel location entirely too far from the park & although they call it Maingate, it is too far to walk with children & not near ANY GATE! Upon check-in I was happy I brought my own bottle of Lysol to do my own cleaning in the room. Staying with another family, we rented the 2 Bedroom Penthouse, not recommended for 2 families! The bedrooms are extremely small & the upstairs room is quite dangerous for young children as the bed looks over the loft. Also the sound travels so if your sleeping upstairs & there are people in the living area, you are not sleeping...due to the noise. The front desk was not helpful the 3 times I went in with questions & the staff seemed to be too young to care. The entire suite was outdated, old & very dirty, but I will say the grounds outside were nice and quiet. I realize the rate was extremely good in comparison to many other hotels but you know the good old saying...you get what you pay for.
