Overall, our party had a terrible stay here due to a few massive issues and a multitude of smaller issues.
The hotel requires valet parking, which is really just a form of parking lot security, which I can understand. But when one of the contracted valet employees verbally harasses a guest, and there is no real recourse because “they aren’t technically employees,” and when the front desk’s reply to the situation is, “it happens,” I would call that hotel a failure.
On top of being verbally harassed by a worker, people should know that this is not a 3-star hotel, but a glorified motel. Slapping a fresh coat of paint and a couple of recessed lighting fixtures does not qualify a motel to call itself a 3-star hotel.
We could hear and participate in every conversation both in the adjacent rooms and from people passing by our door. There was no privacy.
There were also a lot of little things such as the bathroom door being extremely sticky and very hard to open due to all the coats of paint on it, a dysfunctional soap holder that clung to wet soap like a barnacle on a ship, lack of a laundry bag, residue of something left on the toilet seat, not enough waste baskets, and the list goes on.
If this place weren’t across the street from Disneyland, and people weren’t starry-eyed from their trip when writing these reviews, I suspect the average guest rating would be much closer to 1 star. I hope this honest review can help someone avoid making the same mistake we did.
