Spoke with Jennifer in reservations about helping with an upgrade to reservations i had made for April 20th through the 25th. Absolutely a pleasure doing business with Howard Johnson, Jennifer was professional and extremely helpful considering I'm not very good at this sort of thing? Lol... She was so nice, she actually made this an enjoyable experience.
10 minute walk to Disneyland!

Excellent location to Disneyland. Staff were friendly. Room was updated, clean and comfortable. We will definitely stay here again.
Excellent Location & Comfortable Stay But Some Drawbacks

We stayed at the Howard Johnson by Wyndham Anaheim right across from Disneyland in November 2025. Overall it was a very comfortable hotel, with an obviously excellent location right next to Disney, but there were a few drawbacks. The place was clean and warm and comfortable within walking distance to everything we needed. There were unfortunately no amenities other than a pool and waterpark. There was a gift store. No restaurant in the complex, but many nearby. There were only a few complaints. The light on the microwave is bright enough that it lights up the entire room at night when you're trying to sleep. There's a motion sensor on the bathroom light switch, so you can't go to the bathroom in the dark at night. The light comes on and you're scrambling to turn it off every time. The water pressure in the shower was down to an absolute trickle. Took forever to rinse off soap and shampoo. Apart from those drawbacks the place was great.

Great location across from Disneyland and close to kid friendly food options like Panera and McDonald’s. The convenience shop came in handy. The 460 bus stop is right by the hotel which was fantastic. Did not have the best experience overall. The safe needed replacement batteries, towels and trash removal were delayed, and our room door was left open after service. Staff were friendly but not always helpful. Perhaps our stay over a holiday weekend was understaffed.
Great stay!

We enjoyed our stay here for a family Disney trip. Great set up having a family suite, two bedroom/two bathroom. Plenty of room. Decor is really fun a mid century disney theme. Staff super friendly and helpful. Mimi's restaurant right across the street is great for breakfast,lunch and dinner. Walk to Disney is about ten minutes. Would stay here again.
