    thanks for letting us know about your experience here. hope all the issues you had are worked out soon and it is just due to being a new hotel. ☺️

      The reviews of this place are all over the place and you tend to see this with newer hotels. This is a decent place once you look past the smaller issues.

    First impressions of a hotel always get me but I’m glad things got better once you got in. Feeling safe on a walk at night is super important to me too. The room looked nice and spacious shame it’s wasn’t as clean as it could have been.

    • @AnaheimParkTourist
      @AnaheimParkTourist  2 года назад +1

      First impressions can ruin a stay but fortunately everyone was super friendly and handled our requests with good customer service. Rooms that aren't 100% clean are becoming commonplace now. Hopefully that all changes over the next few months. Thank you for watching!

    Thanks for sharing your experience with us at this new property. The restaurant and pool will probably be open by the next time we visit Disneyland as we have our trips planned for the next 6 months or so and California isn't in our immediate future. But we would definitely put this one on our potential list of resorts to stay at when we finally make it back out west. We have also noticed at several hotels we stayed in recently that cleaning standards seem to be a little lax lately and we also believe it is because of understaffing that is currently being experienced in many resort areas.

    • @AnaheimParkTourist

      This is hotel is a great addition to the area, especially for those that don't want to stay in a motel. There aren't many hotels within walking distance. You are the second person to say the same thing to us about the rooms not being quite as clean as the past. Hopefully that changes soon. Thank you for watching.

      @AnaheimParkTourist  2 года назад

      That is great! We still have to get the Alpine Inn experience published. It is quirky on the outside but surprisingly nice on the inside. I really enjoyed the room we got, especially for the price. They were super friendly there. If it is a hotel you really like, they also give returning guests a discount if you call and book directly. Thank you for watching and leaving a comment, we appreciate it.

    I noticed similar "short cuts" I would say in central Florida at the Universal and WDW hotels we stayed in too. Staffing does seem to be a major issue and I travel with what feels like a gallon of hand sanitizer, so I agree on cutting folks slack for now. Always great to hear your thoughts!

    • @AnaheimParkTourist
      @AnaheimParkTourist  2 года назад +1

      Yes, and we have had many other people tell us since saying this, they are experiencing similar issues. I agree with you, cut everyone some slack for the time being. Going back to your other comment; both of us feel like the Suncoast is a quieter hotel than the Garden Inn. We were near an elevator and the hallway noise was loud.

      @@AnaheimParkTourist Hmm... the towel at the door seam trick does work pretty well though in my experience haha. Also I have diamond status with Hilton so they usually grant my room requests (away from the elevator) and/or upgrade me, which is a bonus. But I suppose both properties are Hiltons. IDK. Mostly the walk time is swaying me here, even though I may end up regretting that hahah. Ive still got months to decide, thankfully!

      @AnaheimParkTourist  2 года назад +1

      The walk is a biggie, especially at the end of the night. We stayed at a place that was about 1 mile out last weekend and we grabbed an Uber on the way back! Being Diamond status should help you out as well.

      Hi. We stayed at the Home2Suites when things were open. Hilton Garden Inn and Home2Suites share the same amenities (except Home2Suites has a hot breakfast included and Hilton Garden Inn does not). The hotels are connected. So same lobby, restaurant and pool area. I’m attaching a link to the amenities video for the Home2Suites. Hope that helps! Thank you for watching.

    Great review! We considered that hotel before settling on the Elements Anaheim. Today was our first day in Disneyland, and we are impressed with the hotel except the breakfast this morning. You get a plate and it all looks good, then after pushing it around the edges of the plate for a while, you go get a bowl of cereal. Hopefully tomorrow will be better!

    • @AnaheimParkTourist
      @AnaheimParkTourist  2 года назад +1

      We are hearing good things from the Element and we are happy you are enjoying your stay there. That is too bad the breakfast isn't a bit higher quality but at least there is cereal. Included breakfast save so much money and is such a nice perk. How is the walk to the Element, is it manageable at the end of the night? The two of us are hoping you have a well deserved fun trip.

      @@AnaheimParkTourist I walk three miles a day every day, so it isn't that bad to me. Of course, after a long day walking around the park when I've already walked 10 miles, I'd rather just walk across Harbor Boulevard and crash on my bed, but once you are walking back, the light is at the end of the tunnel, and you just put one foot in front of the other until you get there.
      Mostly, we are sad that Big Thunder Mountain is offline this month. :-(

    • @AnaheimParkTourist
      @AnaheimParkTourist  2 года назад +1

      I was running a few miles a day up until February or March and my knee wasn't having it (torn ACL). When you are used to walking or running daily it is a lot easier, especially with good shoes.
      Agreed about Big Thunder, it is such a loss when one of the rollercoasters are down. Big Thunder is one of our favorites and it just seems a bit more empty.

    What is your opinion on this one versus Homewood suites?

    • @AnaheimParkTourist
      @AnaheimParkTourist  Год назад

      Hi! The Hilton Garden Inn is much newer, so we did not notice any wear and tear like we did at Homewood Suites. We felt as though Homewood Suites was in need of a refresh to the interior.
      Homewood suites is further away, but they have an included hot breakfast. Hilton Garden Inn does not provide breakfast, but they are a closer walk to the parks.
      If you wanted a breakfast included, you could stay at the Hilton Garden Inn sister property, Home2Suites. They share the same pool, lobby, and parking. Home2Suites has a hot breakfast included.
      If you decide to stay at the Hilton Garden Inn, we suggest asking for a room furthest away from the elevator. Also, parking at the Hilton and Home2Suites is valet only.
      Hope that helps! Please let us know if you have any other questions ☺️

  • @melvinjohnson7033

    Valet only, no dice. More health risk from someone who is potentially sick being in your vehicle. As always a very informative review

    • @AnaheimParkTourist
      @AnaheimParkTourist  2 года назад +1

      Valid point about valet and exposure to getting sick and it is always in the back of our minds. I am not a big fan of valet to begin with, I don't care for others driving my vehicle. I always think of that scene from Ferris Bueller's Day Off where the valets are jumping that Ferrari. A number of hotels in the are are now using valet when their lots get full. It is always good to call ahead to see what the hotel is doing for parking. Thank you as always for watching and leaving a comment. We do appreciate it.

      Wow, offsite valet? I don't like the idea of people driving my car on city streets at all. I am assuming they are parking the cars at Gardenwalk. We stayed at another Holiday Inn further down the road years ago. I am thinking our kids were a newborn and a toddler. It was only one night and we think the room wasn't even cleaned. The bed smelled like cologne and there was hair all over the bed. Frustrating experience.
