10/10 Excellent
"Stayed here 2 nights. They charged for parking approx $31-32 per night plus taxes. It was fine though because it was close walking distance to Disneyland. I wish I knew this before hand but I booked tickets and pasting pass at Disney before booking the hotel so I double paid. Blah! Bfast was good it was hopping at that hotel."
