When we first arrived we checked into our room and the room itself was not extremely clean. There were cracks in the ceiling and dust all over. We were told that all the rooms had Keurig coffee makers and ours did not. It had a very old coffee maker that was filthy dirty. We called the front desk and they says that we could move b/c they haven't finished the renovations in the other building and they don't all have Keurigs. We moved to new rooms which had Keurigs...these rooms were clean, but once again, not quite up to par. Lots of dust and cracks and there were also greasy handprints on the door. Many things that are obvious to the naked eye and should have been clean.
After we got settled in, we decided to go to the spa...one problem, there was NO SPA. The website stated the hotel had a spa and pool, so we asked the front desk and their comment was that the pool was heated to 80 degrees...that's still not a spa and that's still false advertisement. After a long day of Disneyland, we wanted a hotel with a spa and we were sadly disappointed.
The breakfast was just okay, it was free. I didn't like the fact that we had to tip, it was a buffet and we got our own food and juice.
Also, this hotel is considered "superior" on the Disney Good Neighbor list. I def think its far from superior and we will find another place to stay next time.
The only plus is the hotel is close to Disneyland and it was easy to get to.

Our Family (4 Adults & 4 Children) stayed at the Red Lion from 11/24-11/30. Guest Services were awesome, helped us right away. We got there a little early, before check-in, our rooms were not ready but they made sure to have our rooms ready within the hour; which was fine considering there was an IHOP right next door and the kids were starving from a 7 hour trip and the best part, No Early Check-in Fee - whoo hoo. The Red Lion Hotel accommodated us by giving us adjoining room; that way we were able to keep our family together. Rooms were clean, no funny smells, bathrooms clean with open space. Our first day there we took the kids to Lego land, we had an hour drive so we needed to be up early, breakfast was ready by 7:30 which was perfect timing for our trip, over the course of the week we went to Disney/CA Advent for 3 days and Medieval times, during the week breakfast was served at 630 which was perfect for getting to Disneyland early to beat those lines. Breakfast was awesome!!!! Fruit, eggs, bacon, sausage, potatoes, oatmeal with all the fixings, orange juice, apple juice, toast/bagels, pancakes and for the picky little ones cereal.

I would like to give KUDOs to the housekeeping group. They were so good. They were thorough, quick, but efficient. Our beds always felt fresh, our bathrooms clean and always had coffee, fresh towels and clean floors… considering we had 4 kids with us.

Red Lion has a transit that is provided by the city to take you Disneyland, cost was about 28 dollars for all 8 of us to ride the bus everyday but it was well worth it, cause your feet are dog tired at the end of the night after walking all over Disneyland/CA Advent. You could also walk to Disney from the hotel but when you have little ones, this is a nice accommodation to your stay.

Parking was FREE.

I go to Disneyland once a year and finally found a hotel that my family and I love. This is our go to hotel and will be back next year for our family vacation.

Stayed here at the end of our trip, rooms are very clean and comfortable - although the air con sounds like you area about to take off!!! The shower was the best I'd had in the US.
Parking was easy and the walk to Disneyland was quick and straight.
I didnt have breakfast in the hotel but there was an Ihop next door that was cheap and had great servie - and a bunch of restaurants around the corner.

The only thing I dont get was a $40 a night holding fee - yes you get it back but after staying at many hotels in my many travels around the world this was a first....unwarranted and annoying when you are staying for multiple nights (most hotels charge a nominal fee and they have a credit card inprint anyhow) ....

This hotel should be very proud of their room cleaning staff the best Ive experienced on this trip to the US.

We stayed at the Red Lion Hotel for 4 nights and everyday we encountered some kind of issue. The "low" blower on the air didn't work and so we had to keep it on high at night and it was so loud we couldn't sleep. The exhaust fan in the bathroom didn't work and it was so hot when trying to shower we almost passed out. The breakfast was gross so we only ate there one morning, we had purchased to eat there every day but nobody wanted to eat there again, the restaurant was dirty and my daughter got sick after breakfast. When we checked in we were told at the front desk we would be paying cash and were told that we needed a credit card to put a charge of $40.00 a day but to our surprise they took out the entire amount of the hotel plus the $160,00 which put us in a great bind during our stay, So we were out the extra amount for breakfast and the extra amount on the hotel bill. The ART ran about 40-45 late everyday so we ended up taking a taxi a couple of times. We will not be staying here again.
