Bad experience
I had bought 2 new boxes of tampons because I started my period unexpectedly. My husband drove late to the store to get them. I opened one box and set them both in the bathroom one unopened and took some to Disneyland. When we got back, both boxes were missing. I took it up with hotel management and they treated me like an inconvenience, and acted like I made the entire thing up. The maid had cleaned that day, our stuff was moved and the boxes were gone. I do not like the way they treat their guests. I was reimbursed 16 dollars for the 2 boxes, however the maid lied and said she didn’t see any tampons. There is no logical explanation for 2 brand new boxes to go missing. They made a mistake and lied about it, as well as talked to me as if I made the whole thing up. Won’t be staying here again, because of the treatment. Rooms were nice for the price. Family room is spacious.

This is the second time I have stayed here. Highly recommend. I stayed on the second floor this time. Room was very clean and bed was comfortable. Wasn't loud ever, even when staying right near the stairwell. All staff I encountered, were lovely. Parking is at $15 a day, but if you choose to do so, they'll just use the deposit made at check-in towards it at the end of your stay. Definitely will come back.
