We had a staycation at the Grand Californian, and it was better than I expected. One issue was that we paid for a Downtown Disney view, but all we could actually see was the tram loading. Our disappointment changed at night when we saw a good portion of the fireworks show, delighting our son who was too tired to stay for fireworks in the park after 12 hours of tearing it up in the heat. The beds were super comfy, the room was clean, and the service staff were all excellent. This might be something we make an annual tradition.

Stayed ar one of the resorts to get into disneyland park early. That was not available for the day we went. We ALWAYS go to disneyland first. One staff told us to change our park to DCA. No thank you. That was the only reason we wanted to stay there was earlier access to disneyland. Ate at Storytellers. Recommend not to. First poor service. Second we all got food poisoning. Asked multiple stagg location of the hot tub and were told inaccurate location each time.Attempted to speak to management but they were busy.

The pool staff was outstanding and made us feel incredibly welcome. From the moment we walked into the pool area the gentleman in the suit went above and beyond by going out of his way to get us towels and wrist bands while we made ourselves comfortable. The bartenders were also great. Most pool staff checked on us constantly to ask if we needed anything.
