We were staying here to go to Disneyland! Easy walk to the park! The room has a retro vibe(which I liked) but our shower took a while to get warmish and there are not enough outlets in the room~to accommodate modern technology (all the smart things we have to charge)! I did love the outside sink and mirror so that a couple people can get ready at the same time! It was decorated cute for the holidays 🎄

We loved this hotel! The proximity to the park was ideal! The staff was beyond amazing. The rooms were well decorated and clean! Housekeeping was amazing. We loved the heated pool and splash area! The shop was full of awesome food and beverage items, Disney goodies, and really anything you might need. The only thing that would make it better is a breakfast option!

Stayed here for six nights and left the simple walk to Disneyland, the shaded pool and fun splash park for the kids. On previous trips, we had stayed at another hotel that has become less clean, less friendly, and overall disappointing. Very impressed with our experience here at the Howard Johnson. Every staff member we spoke to was friendly and relaxed, we would definitely stay here again!

We love the option for the pool and the big, colorful Christmas tree when we stay in November. Avelina (I think was her name) when checking in, was such a nice, friendly person to encounter after being in traffic for four hours. We love staying at HoJo because of the ease to walk to many food locations/Disneyland.
