Pros:

We have to pay for parking in their parking lot overnight and have to pay for the basic, basic breakfast.

Cons:

Parking and breakfast should be complimentary.

Cons:

I was sure that breakfast was included, but I was told it wasn't. They could have at least had coffee available.

Would book here again via booking.com
Pros:

hotel was clean and well kept

Cons:

1) Parking charges were not disclosed on booking.com, i did not know i will have to pay 25$/night for parking.
2) The rooms have such poor sound proofing, the room beside had a party going on and w couldnt sleep till 2 am..
3) AC was so noisy - like a machine in the room. Its all very old infrastructure and building... and needs some serious upgrades.

Great place to stay!
Pros:

Thirteen minutes from Disneyland. Great dinner options right across the street. Hotel is very nice and clean. This was our second time staying there and we purposely went back to the same hotel because of our experience. I do recommend.

Cons:

I can't think of anything I didn't like.
