Disney Trip

This townhouse perfectly suited our family of five’s needs for our Disneyland trip. The property is very spacious and well equipped. It felt like a home away from home. We would stay here again, no question.

Perfect Disney stay!

This is a perfect place to stay for a Disney vacation! Parents, grandparents and 2 toddlers enjoyed this condo for Disney fun. All the Mickey touches throughout really made my kids all the more excited. Owners are great and communicated well. Will stay here again in the future! You can use the tram pretty easily to the front of Disney or walk a little further to downtown Disney to take the monorail.

Amazing location - well loved.

Owners were highly responsive, best location for a 10 min walk to downtown Disney, plenty of strollers and cute little gift for kids at check in.House you can tell has been well loved, does not look as nice as in the pictures, maybe needs some cosmetic upgrades or updates. Floors creek REALLY bad upstairs, so if you have light sleeping little ones, try and limit bathroom breaks. Bring eye masks and ear plugs due to bright lights and thin curtains and road/neighbor noise. BUT we would rent there again based purely off location and owners.

Location location location!

This place is a 10-15 minute stroll to a Disney security entrance with very few people as it is a “back” entrance. The property is darling with all the Disney character features and history throughout the unit, but when you get to the kitchen, it’s like Old Mother Hubbard’s place! That’s not to say that the dishes and the pans don’t look like an IKEA display, but there wasn’t a single spice or condiment to be found. Not even salt or pepper! (Though the shakers were cute, they were EMPTY!) The reason families rent a condo is to cook meals in and save money. Having traveled extensively for many years, it is typical to find that each tenant often leaves something of their purchases… onion or garlic powder/salt, soy sauce, oil or sprays, etc. It was stunning to see absolutely NOTHING in the kitchen! Maybe housekeeping is taking everything after each stay? It is totally unreasonable to consider buying all new basic spices for only a week vacation. The beds were very comfy with extra blankets available, but no tissues in the house so yet another thing we needed to purchase. The airport toilet paper is also better quality so bring your own if you want an enjoyable ‘go.’ And although there were clocks everywhere (which I appreciate), all of them had dead batteries. So what is the point of clocks? So in Summary, this place is ok and has the best location ever, but overall it falls short if you are hoping to fully utilize your vacation rental.

Family Vacation

If you’re looking for a great place to stay close to Disney, you’ve found the right place. Short walk to the parks. You can either walk to Downtown Disney or to the tram at the parking garages. The house was clean, had plenty of closet space, and they even left a cute gift for our kiddo. Also need to add that the parking spot was literally in front of the door. Can’t beat free parking, especially around Disney. We all enjoyed our stay and will definitely be booking again when in the area.

Perfect stay for family

We had a great time at the storybook Villa! Everything about our visit was perfect. They granted us an early check-in. The condo was squeaky clean. We were right across the street from Disneyland and everything in the condo was in working condition. One of the best stays we have had.

Convenient stay for Disneyland visit

We enjoyed our stay at Storybook Villa. The townhome was well-stocked with fresh blankets and towels and everything was comfortable. We loved all the Disney decor touches, we even made Mickey waffles one morning! The walk to Downtown Disney/Disneyland gate isn't super quick, but doable! Happy to have the kitchen for cooking while visiting Disney.

We liked staying here. The walk to DL wasn't far. We did have 2 issues that were minor. The shower door in the master bedroom was broken and wouldn't close and the screened outer entry door had issues. Other than that, it would have gotten 5 stars for everything 😊

Disney Family time

We were very happy with the location of the property as it is just a 9 min easy walk to the entrance to downtown Disney. The townhouse complex is an older complex but it served its purpose for what we needed, basically a place to come home to after a long day at Disneyland. We enjoyed the space and having a full kitchen to cook our breakfast was ideal. It was perfect for our family of 6 adults.

Think twice…depends on your priorities

When I booked this place, I read about every review. There were several that mentioned this place was old and not as pictured. I thought to myself, I’m sure they were embellishing. WRONG. This place doesn’t look as photoed. Not trying to be rude, but I am going to be honest. It’s OLD, in a scarier neighborhood (I would not walk without my husband with our kids), smelled and very small. I even contemplated on finding a hotel and leaving. I have never been so disappointed before. Besides the house being so old and broke down, ALL THE TOWELS, smelled of vomit and sewage (had to wash everything), master shower door left side isn’t on a track and almost fell on my youngest child (you have to lean in the right side to start the shower and basically soak yourself to start it to warm up), master bathroom floor is broken with lots of floor trim damage, the trundle was not under the bunk bed & looked dirty, tons of spare pillows but not a single pillowcase in the smelly cupboards to use with them. I am not normally one to leave a review like this, however, when you plan such a huge trip for your family, you expect what is being advertised. Far from it. I emailed the owner the night we arrived because I was upset, not a care in the world. He said the towels were new. Well, my thought was wouldn’t you wash them? The smell made the upstairs stink. How could you not notice that? Claimed the right side of the shower was the access point, well the free standing door almost crushed my kid.

Needs updated photos/deep clean

The condo is in desperate need of a deep clean. The oven was dirty so we couldn’t use it without the whole place smelling like someone else’s burnt food. The water and ice machine did not work on the fridge. There were spider webs and large spiders all over the back patio, including on the back door so we were uncomfortable letting our young kids play outside. There weren’t kids toys on the patio like in the listing, which was disappointing to them. The master shower had mold. The drains for the tubs and showers were all disintegrating and rusty. There was a thick layer of dust on the lampshades. The walls were dirty. When we walked in, it smelled so strongly of pinesol that we had to keep the doors open to air it out. The listing pictures are outdated. While it has the same furnishings, everything is more run down and dirty than appears in photos. The distance to Disneyland was a manageable walk with young kids, but that aside, I would not stay here again or recommend to anyone.

Close to Disney

Property was about a 15-20 minute walk with a 5 and 7 year old. You do need to cross a street with no cross walk to make it that short of a walk. The tram took a few mins off the walk time on the way home. We liked: the pool, all the beds, stocked kitchen, communication with owner, easy check in and out, free parking. Could be better: more seating in living room-there is beds for 6+, but only seating for 3 in the living room and there was plenty of room for an additional love seat/chairs. The ice machine didn’t make ice and in 40+ C heat we needed ice! Not a deal breaker as we can buy ice but it would haven been nice to know ahead. It was clean, but definitely a bit more run down than expected. Overall, it’s definitely l worth staying here and would agai. If we went back.
