When it comes to value hotels within walking distance to the Disneyland Resort, The four
points by Sheraton is a diamond in the rough.
Hey everyone this is Julia with the konkin review and today I’m at the four points
by Sheraton in Anaheim at the Disneyland resort giving you an honest hotel tour and review.

The four points is a 5 story motel style resort that is a short walk from the Disneyland Resort
and provides great value for the area.
Here’s how our reviews work.
Each hotel is graded on the same 4 categories which are: Overall Experience, Hotel Amenities,
Room & Value.
This way you can see how they stack up against each other.
For the Disneyland Area hotels we have adjusted our rating scale to be more lenient as most
of these hotels are from the 60s and are a little worse for wear.
From the reviews I’ve read, many guests on their first visit to the Disneyland Resort
are disappointed and surprised to find that these hotels are of a lower quality than they’d
expect to find at that price point.
When we walked into the four points we were surrounded by a lovely updated lobby area
& helpful & friendly staff.
This hotel has the best check in & check out times for the Disneyland area with a 3pm check
in and Noon Check out time.
One unique highlight is the fantastic view of the Disneyland Fireworks.
No matter where you’re staying in the hotel, you can view the fire works from the top floor
walkways or the pool area.
The hotel offers a text paging system to let you know when your room is ready but it didn’t
work for us as we never received the text.
To get to our room we had to walk down a poorly lit un renovated section of hallway that gave
us a bit of an uneasy feeling.
That said, the four points is actually very secure for a motel style resort as you have
to enter through the lobby to access the rooms.
Ido have to say that a fresh coat of white paint and some brighter lighting would clear
this right up.
The four points is surrounded by busy freeways and the sound definitely resonated through
all areas of the hotel.
So we’re giving the overall experience a 3.5/5
The Four Points has some fantastic resort amenities.
The pool area is large and has a great layout, however it could be improved with more lounge
chairs, umbrellas and if the pool side bar/restaurant had been open during our stay.
The fitness centre is a nice size and has a good variety of equipment.
Both the pool & Fitness centre is open 24/7.
The Tru Grits Restaurant felt like a nice, updated restaurant with a good variety of
menu items.
While Food was reasonably priced, the drink prices were a little on the expensive side.
The restaurant offers a great breakfast buffet from 6:30 am to 10:00 am.
If you'd like more information on the breakfast buffet, check out our review video.
The pantry located in the lobby offered some great grab & go options.
The gift shop had all of the basic essentials.
If they don’t have what you’re looking for, there is a Starbucks and a Gas Station
across the street.
With all that in mind, we’re giving this category a 4 out of 5.
The room was my favourite part of the hotel.
They have the best beds in the Disneyland resort area in my honest opinion.
The rooms have been recently updated and are clean and modern looking.
But there were a few things in the room that still haven’t been updated like the sink,
tub & floor tile in the bathroom.
You can definitely hear the highway noise in the room but it was more of a white noise
that drowned out the noises from other guests and the pool area.
If noise is an issue for you, the hotel does provide ear plugs in the room.
All in all, the room gets a 4.25 out of 5.
If you’re interested on how we got to this rating, you can check out our full room tour
& review video A quick search on your favourite hotel search
engine will most likely reveal that the four points is one of the less expensive hotels
in the Disneyland area.
You won’t find a place this close to Disneyland that is this reasonably priced with the same
quality of room & amenities.
Even though it isn’t THE closest hotel, it gives you way more bang for your buck than
many of the hotels with a slightly shorter walk.
It should be noted that there is a daily parking fee of $16 if you are bringing your car, but
that is it for hidden costs.
For me, I would gladly walk a few extra minutes for a comfortable bed, a nice pool area and
a cheaper price.
For that reason, I am giving it a 4.
That gives the Four Points a 3.9 out of 5 but we are rounding up to an even 4/5 for
good measure since when we lost our tripod they found it for us and kept it safe.
