Plan on taking train in from LA area. Does train go close or should we take trolley from olde town or Lyft. Or can you recommend a good way

Trolley stops right behind the resort

Trolley from old town is only 2 stops away. 2.50 a person.

So there is a trolley stop right next to the property. I'd say that would be your best bet if you're trying to save some money

The trolley station is definitely walking distance, behind the hotel. You can take it to connect with the train.
