This is a fine hotel... It's huge and accomodating for conferences and business, and the management sells it as such. If your company's paying for everything, and it's not too bad. It's a 3-star as opposed to 4-star as they rate it.
The decor is a bit dated, very 80-ish. Large corridors, carpeted floors, very typical of that era. If you get a room on facing Convention Way facing Hilton, that's not a bad view, otherwise, like us, we got a room facing the backlot over the roofs of other hotels, not so sitely.
As I said, the hotel is FINE, but would I pay the rack rate of $209, definitely not. Don't forget the $20 parking (most expensive of all hotels in Anaheim -- The Hilton across just raised their price to $15 recently). $13/day for Internet (outrageous: though they claim LD calls to US are part of the deal). $15 for fridge although the cooler in room was adequate. NO MICROWAVE (as I said, very 80s hotel). In room safe is only nice feature I found. The rooms were small and again looked dated, although clean. Bed and pillows were comfortable. Bathroom is old but clean (needs some renovations).
Maid/Front desk very helpful/cheerful and accomodating but there's only so much they can do with the charges... "Julie" from frontdesk was particularly helpful...
Overall, this is good if you are going to Anaheim Convention Center (next door), but NOT GOOD if you are going to Disneyland. 15 minute 1 mile walk. I won't pay for shuttle since it's NOT THAT FAR, but on the other hand, it can be tiring after a long day at DL. Location is not good from DL. Next time, I would likely stay at some other Motels with more offerings closer to DL.
Recap: $$$ if you want to add everything that other "lower" hotels offer (eg: Holiday Inn), but if you are on business, get the company to pay for it. Mind you, in that case, I'd stay at the Hilton across the street (more extravagant).
