Best Western Plus Stovall's Inn
Perfect location for Disneyland! the beds are extremely uncomfortable, the staff are so loud first thing in the morning so if you wanted to sleep in past 7am, forget it. The amenities are great. this hotel is perfect for the price.

Anaheim Majestic Garden Hotel
Overall cleanliness was gear- there was some minor spot in our bathroom on the wall- looked like toothpaste or mouthwash and some dirt on the bathroom door. Rooms were nice and big, restaurants on site were a lifesaver after a long day in the park. Every staff person was kind and friendly.

Room was very comfortable and quiet. I left early the next morning so didn’t experience the breakfast. The staff were very helpful in answering my questions.
