Stayed here 4/7-4/10/2005, all of us (grandparents, daughter, son-in-law, grandchildren ages 8 & 12) loved this hotel. We stayed on the 7th floor and had a two bedroom suite that overlooked the pool. The complimentary breakfast was wonderful, the shuttle to and from Disneyland for $3 per day per adult was well worth the money, the outdoor spa by the pool was my favorite place after a long day at Disney. The kids also enjoyed the basketball court. We all agree, next visit to Disneyland, we'll stay at Staybridge Suites.

Tripadviser was a great help in our selection of a hotel.

Stayed at this hotel in February in two 1 bedroom suites (10 people total)and had no complaints, everything was very clean the living room and bedroom had their own tvs so everyone could enjoy their own private time. The pool was great! and the hot tub was a great size. There were kids always playing basket ball tennis and stuff to keep them busy.The breakfast in the morning was very filling with waffles, yogurt, fresh fruit, cereal. scrammbledeggs, bacon, juice coffee everything..... it was very satisfying. They even had pre printed directions from the hotel to all major attractions.... very helpful.
Would highly recommend this hotel.... keep in mind that this hotel shares the pool with the Holiday Inn located next door so in the summer months it may get a little crowded. The Anaheim resort transit also picks up next door.

This was our 2nd stay at the Staybridge Suites in just over a year, so we knew what to expect. Last year we made do with a one bedroom suite, but none of our three kids would share a bed so one of them ended up sleeping on the floor. This year we opted for a two bedroom suite with two bathrooms. This time we had plenty of space with beds for everyone (and having the two bathrooms was nice). A very comfortable apartment-like accomodation made for a restful place to recharge our batteries after a busy day at Disneyland. The three TVs in the suite meant no fighting over what to watch! The kitchen was adequately stocked with dishes, utensils, bowls and pots, etc. A coffee maker, toaster, microwave, dishwasher, full refrigerator, stove top (no oven), and a table and chairs (for 4 only). The buffet breakfasts each morning with fresh fruit, yogurt, cottage cheese, eggs, bacon, sausage, and make-your-own waffle machines, croissants, danishes, etc. was appreciated. Yes, it was busy at times with line ups but not for the full duration of the three hour breakfast service. The staff don't seem to mind if you take the food to your rooms - we often packed some of the fruit and made peanut butter sandwiches up in our suite (all from the breakfast buffet) to take with us to the park. The T-W-T evening manager's reception, with BBQ hamburgers and hot dogs on the Wednesday, were appreciated as well with complimentary wine, beer and pop.
Staff at the front desk seemed friendly and accomodating enough. But other than check in and out, and purchasing our ART tickets we didn't use their services much.
Local calls from the suites are free and they have a couple of PCs with free internet access downstairs in the lobby area.
The pool and spa were nice, although they seemed to run out of clean towels at the pool often and we found ourselves waiting around for some for quite awhile.
The free 24 hour laundry room facilities were appreciated too (pack your own detergent). If you need to workout they have a few modest pieces of equipment in an adjacent room.
The halls were frequently left with dirty food trays, garbage and linens - seems they have difficulty getting enough staff to clean, or perhaps thats just not important for them. Its true they don't clean floors and bathrooms daily in the suites. They will come in and make the beds, empty the garbage and replace dirty towels with clean towels. But one day they forgot to do our room. We made do as we still had sufficient clean towels and we got back so late from Disneyland we were too tired to complain. I suppose this hotel places a higher priority on feeding guests than cleaning their rooms (hey, nobody cleans my house at home daily either!).
The ART shuttle is a convenient service that takes you from the hotel to Disneyland. Its $3 for a daily pass, or you can buy a 5 day pass for $12, with unlimited rides during each day. Children 9 and under are free with a paying adult. We were there during a very busy spring break and heard other people complain about long waits to get the shuttle - fortunately the longest we ever waited was about 20 minutes.
If you're looking for a comfortable and affordable family hotel, you can't go wrong staying here. Just lighten up a bit on your cleanliness expectations and you won't be disappointed. But if you want to be pampered with services and luxury then look elsewhere!

JUST got back from So. Cal....stayed at two different hotels....this and a Disney Hotel. We stayed at Staybridge for 4 nights. Here is what we found:

Check-in and check-out: Front desk people weren't terribly impressive...sorry. I produced documents showing our quoted rate, and was still questioned. It wasn't a HUGE thing, but was a little frustrating. Luckily, it was the worst thing that happened.

Room: We had the King/Sleeper Sofa room. Clean and comfortable (with the exception of the incredibly uncomfortable sleeper sofa...as most are). The room was large enough for a few family members to drop by and visit. It was GREAT to have a kitchen....we spent a total of about $50 on food from Sat-Wed morning, for a family of four! Kept the meals easy so it wasn't too much work. Can't beat that! (Bummer there's no oven) Never heard any neighbors either.

Food: They provide a great breakfast buffet! Anything you want to toast, fruit, doughnuts, pastries, and fresh belgian waffles every morning! Also eggs and bacon or sausage daily too. We ate a huge breakfast daily, then ate light until dinner time. Lines are to be expected in the buffet.....GET A TABLE FIRST and plant a family member there while you dish up....then trade places. It's really not that big of a deal....seats are hard to come by as the breakfast is very popular. You always have the option of taking the food to your room as well.They also provide salad type snacks and drinks in the afternoon on T/W/Th. Those were good as well.

Amenities: Laundry room is clean...4 washers and 4 dryers. Bring your own detergent. Pool is a good size, as is the hot tub. They are, however, shared with the Holiday Inn that shares a property line. (Staybridge is a Holiday Inn property as well). Free internet on two computers. NO VCR or games in rooms.

Hallways: Yes...we also saw some food trays in the hall for longer than necessary. I believe the trays were from the neighboring Holiday Inn restaurant....and they neglected to pick them up in a timely fashion. Not the hotels fault....HOWEVER, since I didn't eat or sleep in the hall, who cares?!? It's not a big enough thing that you should be deterred because of it.

Location: Approx. 1.5 miles from Disneyland. We had a rental car, so it was fine. Even with the distance, we would definately stay there again. There are malls, food, grocery stores, etc., all within a mile in any direction.

Housekeeping: Not terribly impressed, but was okay. One day they didn't seem to be coming, so we put our towels in the hall and had fresh ones upon return....including kitchen towels.

Overall...we, including my kids, preferred this hotel to the Disneyland Hotel. The room, breakfast, free internet, pool, etc....it all added up to a great experience and we'd stay here again in a heartbeat!
