We stayed 5 nights at this property, and were extremely pleased with how walkable it was to Disneyland. I feel like "you get what you get" here, the little water park was nice for the kids, although I felt the lifeguards could have backed off a bit... especially when parents were in the hottub with their kids. There were 9 of us, in 3 different rooms. Building 4, 6 and 2. Building 4 had an extreme smell of mold or water damamge, building 6 still had that same smell, and building 2 (King beds) was fantastic! I found the staff to be friendly as a whole, and it was nice to have a little market at the hotel. However, we were disappointed there wasn't a hotel restaurant, and found it extremely irritating to have to leave the property for a meal. For a 3- star hotel, I'd say it provides the basic necessitites and its rating is fair. This was our 2nd visit to Howard Johnson, and not sure whether or not we will return. I recommend this hotel to families with a lower budget, especially families with toddlers. One more thing- the grounds crew was SUPER friendly when we talked with them, otherwise they were quiet. They worked hard every day to help boost the grounds and appeal. Great job to them!

The pool was fantastic for our kids, they loved the water slide and the fact that it wasn’t super deep. The only thing that put a damper on our stay was that the fire alarm was set off at 1am from idiots smoking in the stairwell. So much for a restful night sleep before our flight out early in the morning!

Friendly staff, easy check-in/out. Quick walk to the Disneyland parks. And the water play area was great for taking breaks and cooling off. My kiddo doesn't know how to swim, so it was nice that the whole play area was safe for him without requiring me to hold him the whole time. It was a great place to stay with kids for Disneyland. My only issue with cleanliness is just my own personal ick with older carpets. Linens and everything were very clean.
