Perfect place to stay for a visit to Disney

Lovely hotel just ten minutes walk to Disney Land. Our room was clean and tidy, with a comfortable bed. The staff are friendly and helpful - nothing is a problem. Would happily stay again in the future.
Great staff!

We stayed here 2 nights for a mom/daughters Disneyland trip, and I have to first and foremost mention how kind and accommodating the staff were, especially manager Michael. We had a potentially frightening situation when 1 man followed my daughters (ages 14 and 20) into the elevator and asked what room they're staying in, and a second man followed them in the parking lot and across hotel grounds. We had arrived late after a long drive, and it was after 10 pm at this point. When we approached the front desk about this, Michael immediately provided us with a room change into another building, on an upper floor. Thanks to him hearing our concern and acting on it, we felt much more safe. Additionally, the hotel was great. The room was completely quiet and very clean, beds were super comfortable. The convenience store had bandaids when we needed them. Check in/out was a breeze, and the staff were all smiles. The walk to Disneyland was quick and easy. Will definitely stay here on our next Disneyland trip!
Great stay

Close to Disney. Hotel staff was great. Got an early check in after a very long drive. Lots of life guards at the pool to keep the kids safe. Maintenance staff even went out of their way to find us rain ponchos. Thank you so much Eduardo and Manuel! You both saved the day.
Best Customer Service!

The Howard Johnson is my go to hotel whenever we travel to Disneyland. Everyone is so super friendly, the hotel is clean and safe, and it is right across from the parks. Tons of restaurants around there too. I called about a question regarding our upcoming trip and Kris answered the phone. She was AMAZING. She helped me with what I needed, she was super sweet on the phone and you could hear her smile while we were talking. If you have not been to the HOJO, book your next trip here.

We love this hotel! It’s a restomod - newly remodeled but still maintains its retro vibe. Great location next to the Disneyland Park entrance, friendly staff, super clean, very comfortable. The water park (Castaway Cove) is so fun, and their store has all the necessities. And the room rates are very reasonable - a great value. It’s also very quiet for a good night sleep This place can’t be beat. Today, Sam welcomed us and she was so nice and helpful. The perfect way to start one’s stay.
