Check in was originally at 3pm but was able to clean the room earlier which was a nice gesture. Though, we didn’t come in until later that evening. How rare is to get a early check in without paying additional?!
The suite is able to accommodate 4 adults. There is a full size bed & a futon. The bed was a bit firm for me but my days were long so I was able to just knock out & forget our firm it is. My brother & her girlfriend was on the futon which felt softer than the bed. The futon was a little tricky to lay down but James was able to quickly respond on how to figure it out. The overall layout was small but enough for everyone to walk around. We didn’t spend much of days in the room since we were out almost all of the days so the space didn’t really matter to us.
The walls are thin so we were able to hear people talking through the walls. There was also a morning where we smelled them cooking breakfast. There were earplugs offered but my girlfriend and I didn’t need them since we’re heavy sleepers. My brother and her girl did since they’re light sleepers. They claim to hear sounds in the middle of the night.
The location is a bit narrow and small & my group drove a Toyota Sienna. I had trouble trying to park my big van in the parking space. There are two parking spots on the property where we were allowed to park in & im pretty sure I would have had trouble parking inside if there was another car besides me. Luckily, I didn’t have to encounter going in the property with the other car there. Getting out, it was easier with the other car there. There is street parking but there is street cleaning on certain days.
It was about 10 mins away from Disneyland which was very convenient for us since we spent most of our days there. There was a binder with house rules which I thought was a nice reminder. The binder also included where to go and things to do which was thoughtful to do especially since we’re not familiar with the area. If I’m in LA again for a short amount of time, I would consider staying at James’ place for the convenience & the price.
