Best Western Plus Stovall's Inn
My mirror had blood all over it when I checked in, and in spite of days of calls to the front desk an assurance it would be cleaned, it didn’t. On the third day I demanded a new room as my toddler was trying to touch it and clearly they don’t clean.

Anaheim Majestic Garden Hotel
Hotel is nice and close to Disneyland. It has charm but needs an upgrade on mattresses and pillows. Also loved the free shuttles.
