    Jul 28 2025

    Looking for extra space, a full kitchen, and a great value near Disneyland? In this episode of Let’s Just Go, Kayla and Chris review the Clementine Hotel & Suites—one of Disneyland’s Good Neighbor Hotels that's perfect for extended families, allergy-friendly travelers, or anyone who wants room to spread out.

    They break down room types (hello, bi-level loft with two bathrooms!), amenities, and who this hotel is best suited for. Spoiler: it’s not for your romantic couple’s trip, but if you’ve got a crew of 6–8 and want comfort without splurging on a resort, Clementine might be your new go-to.
