Just got back from there last week.

The resort is very nice. The units are 2-story townhouse style units, with a large foyer, half bath, full size dinning room and living room, small but fully equipped kitchen (including washer/dryer), and an outside patio all on the ground level.
Upstairs are two bedrooms. One has two twin beds, but are next to each other. The other has a king or queen size bed, and it's own bathroom. The master bath has a tub with shower. The other upstairs bath is off the hall, and has a shower.

There is an indoor pool, and an outdoor pool which is open seasonally. The whole style of the resort is a small French village.

They also have free wi-fi if you have your own computer. They also have computers to use if you don't bring yours, but that is pretty expensive.

They have a typical Marrott MarketPlace on site. But there is also a nearby village (within walking distance - maybe 10-15 minutes walk), that has a grocery store, a bakery, some restaurants.

The check-in staff was great, and will give you all the information you need.

The resort is not IMO within walking distance of the train station.
The train station is in the middle of the Disneyland resort, and there is a bus area adjacent to it. Here you can catch the #57 bus to the resort. It is a complimentary shuttle that goes to the Radisson and the Marriott. However it's not real frequent, especially during the middle of the day. I got there at 1:30 pm, and there was a bus at 2:00 pm. But the next bus wasn't til about 4pm. They will give you a bus schedule at check-in. There are about 10 trips per day. Maybe in the summer there will be more - don't know about that. There is also a public bus that goes by the entrance to the resort. It's more frequent and cost 1.40 euros. I think it's bus #34 (not 100% sure - I never used that bus).
This train station is also where you will go to catch the RER trains into Paris. These trains are very frequent. For a 1-day trip into Paris, I got the 1-5 zone 1-day mobilis ticket, which included the RER trains to/from Paris, and unlimited Metro rides in Paris. Cost 12.30 euros.

I've stayed there twice and am going back in June. It's a really lovely resort but you do need transport to get to the parks/train station. We nearly always used the courtesy bus but you cn book their own taxi for 15€ per trip too (as well as the public bus).

There are also outsode playpar and a kids club if you have children

And we were one of 6 villas that were invaded by some robbers on Apr 1. Beware. If you have any problems with locks, call management and make sure they come and resolve it. the extra bolt locks do not help. They entered the villas while people were sleeping upstairs. They took everything and anything that was downstairs, that did not belong to the hotel, yea interesting. If you are going to steal cameras, laptops, blackberry's, etc why wouldn't you take the DVD player? Question no one would answer us. Just be careful. We were in unit 1802 right next to the main check in area. Management did nothing to help, they did not even call or followup to check on us. I have never had just bad treatment.

That's terrible, I'm so sorry that your holiday was ruined in this way, it's despicable.
