Avoid in Summer
We came here straight after Paris Disney which we rated highly. Sadly July is a no to visit this place. It was local school holidays and we went on a Monday. The heat and lack of shade and indoor eating areas did us in. The lines and entrance confusion was a bad start but then the absence of shade in 39 degree heat was a no go. We did two rides and had to leave when we lined up for 40 minutes just to get into a place to eat only to then have to search for a table - after looking for a table for 20 minutes we headed home.

Disneyland with certain peculiarities
The walk to the entrance if by tour bus is half an hour. Once you get to the gate area, there's so many zigzag barriers that even on a not so busy day, you have to walk round and round on what otherwise would only be a few steps without the barriers. This is the first Disneyland I've been to where you're allowed to bring in food. Rides and queues inside are otherwise orderly. I only saw 3 people spitting on the ground (I was expecting more). A few people were smoking outside the designated smoking areas. We spent 2 days here. This can actually be experienced in a day.

A below average Disneyland experience
A below average Disneyland experience despite excellent hardware. I had fast pass to save time but still felt like I was a semi-finished good in a conveyance belt. My feeling is that 50% of the staffs didn’t make guests feel welcoming and 70% has no smile on their face. Personally I disliked most is smoking. It’s not uncommon to see people smoking in non-smoking areas and the staffs appeared that they didn’t care. This is extremely disturbing for a non-smoker like myself

Great time! Zootopia fun!
It was rainy, hot, and humid so I wouldn't recommend going in June. BUT the air conditioning was excellent once you got into buildings. The Zootopia area is incredible and so cute! I also loved the Jack Sparrow ride and stunt show. So amazing! This is a wonderful park. Loved it!

My personal experience to the magical place
Good but was quite disappointed with the handling of the queues for the shows by the staff and the waiting period was terrible. People were cutting lies trying to go over you and the entertainment shows were hardly 15 minutes. I would give it an average and Please note that seating areas to rest yourself are very limited. During peak hours it's a really killer. Dining was average to but there was a really good pastry shop in mickeys downtown. There were too many characters as well. Shopping was excellent bur crowd control could be managed better.
