"This is a no-frills, basic motel run by a family that lives on site.

I recommend staying at this reasonably-priced place so you can spend more of your vacation $ on adventures, shopping, and dining out rather than on an expensive posh hotel. Also, the beds were nice and firm."

The Queen Mary

10/10 Excellent

"It was a one of kind experience, would definitely do it again, well done Queen Mary Staff"

Anaheim Majestic Garden Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms were a little dirty. Mostly the bathroom."

Ramada by Wyndham Anaheim Convention Center

8/10 Good

"The room was big; the king bed was comfortable ; the shower was big and there was plenty of water. The buffet breakfast was so-so. The biggest problem we had was with the bed frame. There was sheet metal that enclosed the bed frame and went down to the floor. Any time you accidentally bumped it it sounded like thunder which isn't bad during the day but in the middle of the night is startling! The best thing we found was Thames Disbey shuttle for Toy Story parking lot was nearby. We could walk down there, go through security, ride the shuttle up to the entrance and miss a lot of the lines in the morning. Good hotel and we'd stay again"
