Desert Palms Hotel & Suites
This is a very affordable hotel for being near Disneyland. It's a less than 10 minute walk to the parks. The food was fresh, the beds comfortable, the room had plenty of space for 5 people, and quite nice to come back to after a long day of fun. The parking is not free, which is the only draw ...

The Viv Hotel, Anaheim, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel
Stayed here with my kids and it was a great experience. The hotel felt safe, clean, and welcoming. The pool was a big hit, and the staff was very accommodating. It’s also close to major attractions, which made everything easier. Perfect for a family trip!

Hotel Fera Anaheim, a DoubleTree by Hilton
The lobby was nice, the only issue we had was with the cleanliness of the room. The first room had hair in the bath tub, stuff on the sheets, trash on floor just overall not clean. We went back to the lobby & they changed was rooms which was way better overall.
