The staff is not friendly except the lady that worked in the little store on the main level she was sweet. They did not give the wolf ears, they did not inform you if you want your room clean to ask, the parking is terrible the cost to stay there then an addition 109 for parking. Customer service needs to be looked at!

Overal it was a great experience. The kitchen staff in the waterpark area were amazing! Bartender included. Housekeeping crew were working hard daily turning over rooms and keeping it clean. The feont desk, especially Jose was super accommodating and stayed calm even when the busy weekend brought chaos. He had a wonderful way ro deal with people under pressure! We also wanted to acknowledge the valet crew and Christian. Exceptionally professional and courteous. Thank you for a wonderful first-time family experience at Great Wolf Anaheim!

Was not impressed. It’s a motel with some water slides and creepy parking attendants. The plumbing was bad and the sink wasn’t. the bathroom. It’s way too overpriced for what it is. Just stay at a motel 6 and go to Disney!

Waterpark & Arcade was awesome and my son loved it! Only hiccup was Expedia & Great wolf lodge didn’t communicate properly and I was charged $1400~ by GWL upon arrival even though I had already paid thru Expedia. GWL has blamed Expedia for not communicating properly which I can believe as they also seemed to leave my son off the booking so my reservation at GWL only showed myself. I was told I would see my duplicate charge reversed upon checkout so I will have to follow that up to make sure it happens. Check in at GWL is a mess if it’s busy- you are supposed to get your room by 4pm but we didn’t get into our room until 630pm on the first night even though I was told the room was actually ready around 5 however I didn’t recieve any notification (which I was supposed to). I had checked in with front desk around 430 (had to lineup for about 30mins to speak to someone) and they said I would receive a message when it was ready We just played in the waterpark but still pretty annoying. I will be following up with Expedia to see what went wrong but it seems to be an issue with attention to detail on whoever actions these bookings. I would probably skip Expedia and just book direct next time as I didn’t realize what a cluster things could turn into when someone can’t do their job properly.
