We stayed here for a weekend in May 2008.

We made our reservations online and then a few days later we decided to upgrade to a nicer room with a view, After calling them they were very helpful to explain all of of options and prices. After telling them I saw a discount offer on AAA they gave me the discount and upgraded me to a room with a view of Disneyland.

When we arrived Friday afternoon the lobby was not busy, we were able to check right in, they had everything ready for us. We made our way to our room on a upper floor, opened the window and Poof! there it was, Disneyland! Wow a great view, Big quiet room, it was very nice, we were quite happy. we rested up for a few, and walked across the street for a early dinner. Disneyland entrance is right across the street, along with many restaurants. This was nice because of Gas prices, I was happy I didn't have to drive around town everything you need is within a few minute walk.

I think this is where I will be staying on our next trip.

First let me say that whenever we come to the Anaheim area, if we can't stay at the Disneyland Hotel, we always stay at the Howard Johnson. It's a very large hotel that is set up in multiple buildings spanning over an acre. They have a wonderful pool in the rear of the property and opening this summer a pirate themed "water park" which we can't wait to see. The rooms have been recently upgraded and the new pillowtop mattresses were absoloutly heavenly! We had a fridge and microwave in our room which came in handy when I was preparing bottles at 2am. :) We had a nice sized balcony overlooking the monorail which was really nice because we'd make coffee in the morning and sit out on the balcony before heading over to the parks for the day while the little one was still resting. They have a very large gift shop that had a wide selection of affordably priced items, including ice creams! After a long day at DL we would buy Ice Creams to enjoy back in our room. The staff was extremely friendly and very helpful in suggesting a place for dinner offsite. We look forward to our next stay at the Howard Johnson in December! Thanks, and keep up the wonderful service you guys provide at the Howard Johnson!

Rooms were great and close to disney. Very clean and comfortable. We went in the off season and the rooms were very afordable. Would love to stay again, but the rooms are some what pricey now.

This hotel lived up to it's previous reviews. It was clean, and kept clean daily, nice grounds, short walk to Disneyland, nice staff, and, truly, the most comfortable bed I've ever slept on. We would come back from Disneyland on our afternoon break and just collapse onto those beds and not want to get back up. I do wish the laundry room included more than just three washers and dryers, but at least there were some. One thing: we paid for the premium Disney view room. Don't bother. The view during the day is really non existant, and while you can see the fireworks between the giant evergreens planted right in front of the balconeys, my girls were tired of them after the second night. But overall, a really nice stay.
