| We just recently returned from a trip to DL where we stayed at the Desert Inn and Suites. Prior to our vacation, I had some reservations as to how much we'd enjoy staying here, particularly compared to our stay last summer at the Disneyland Hotel. Well, suffice it to say I needn't have worried. We had a marvellous time here. The room was spacious, clean and comfortable . Housekeeping here is exceptionally efficient. There was a small indoor pool and hot tub, a little gift shop that carried any little items that we might run out of. The hotel is so close to Disneyland that I would estimate it was only about half the walk we had when staying on site and walking to the parks. The free continental breakfast was nothing fancy - just toast, assorted danishes, oranges or apples depending on the morning, coffee, tea, and fruit juices (orange or raspberry lemonade). We're not big breakfast people so this proved just the trick to take the edge off our hunger until lunch time. There's also a nice rooftop viewing area for the fireworks. So the big question is, "Would I stay here again?" In a heartbeat. For only $59 a night as compared to well over $250 a night for a stay onsite, the savings are just too huge to resist, especially given the exceptionally convenient location of this hotel.
