So, we checked in yesterday and are currently staying at the hotel. Check in was OK, they still don't have a dedicated Hhonors desk and it was very busy. No diamond upgrade (hotel is full) or recognition of status from desk.
Room is fine (pictures below) but almost all rooms have an adjoining door and room insulation to the corridor is minimal. Beds are comfy and an extra bed was available in our double room (after 3 reminders to reception). The hotel caters to families and as such, there are lots of small kids everywhere, so I'd only recommend the hotel if you are prepared for this.

Breakfast this morning was busy, and while not exactly peaceful for adults, young kids would love it. Tom and Jerry were at the entrance as well as some other characters at various times. Food is kid centered with pancakes waffles and numerous toppings for them available. There was also a kids table with donuts malteesers, gummies, marshmallows etc so great for the kids.

The best thing is that your park tickets are included and you get these from the concierge after check in. All 4 of us got a pass good for 1 Park per night stayed (not per day), so given the hotel price vs park ticket prices, it was cheaper to stay at the hotel than to just buy the tickets.

All in all, it's a nice hotel, but very kids orientated. If this us what you're looking for, you'll like it....if you're looking for somewhere quiet, then maybe not!
