Dolphins Cove Resort, Anaheim

Wasn't notified the pool area was under construction prior to booking, management (Jennifer) wasn't very accommodating when we complained about a cockroach outside our room door, electricity didn't work in the bedroom area. Overall terrible experience and will not be returning.

They don't clean the rooms everyday so figure that into the price you pay when comparing. There is no elevator so try to get a ground floor or be prepared to lug the bags up the stairs. If you like to use the pool or other amenities they advertise it's a good idea to call first and ask if everything is working. If they want to introduce you to the concierge be ready for a sales pitch for timeshares. They offer a breakfast but it's where they do the timeshare sales pitch a few blocks away.

When we showed up we found out the pool and hot tub area was closed for renovations. That information would have been good to know before booking, as I would have picked a different hotel. We look forward to swimming after a long day at Disneyland, and we're very upset that the pool is closed. I tried to find another hotel close by and was going to cancel the reservation and stay somewhere else with a pool, but they were all booked up. Also, the door to our room didn't work. Tried 3 sets of room key cards before maintenace was called to fix it. So we waited for 30 minutes before getting in our room.

Great place to stay with kids. At the time I stayed they were renovating the pool area. Only concern was how Hotel.com did not advertise that the hotel was undergoing renovations and my specific criteria for a hotel was to have a pool and hottub. Other then that location was perfect for our Disney stay. But not within walking distance to Disneyland.

Overall it was much better than expected for the price. The pool area was under construction but everything else was in good condition. The room was spacious and had everything I need. The bed was comfortable, had two full baths and a guest room (kids room). Kitchen, living room and full size table and chairs. Short walk to the convention center. I went for business but be cautioned most of the people are here with kids and the excitement that Disney holds for a little one. I like kids so that's not big deal for me, but if mouseketeers are a problem for you, you may want to consider spending more than twice as much for a smaller, equally clean and comfortable but lesser equipped accommodation at the Marriott or Hilton.
