The Mouse For Less Tip:

Comments: This was not a pleasant experience. I picked this motel because of the price. I knew going in it was a little further away than I wanted to be from the main entrance, but not as far as it ended up being. It was probably a healthy mile to the Disneyland entrance. You can take the tram to the Mickey and Friends parking structure, but that is still about a 1/2 mile from the motel.

The continental breakfast was severely lacking. They do not have a separate room for it like most places. It is relegated to a small table in the lobby and the choices were donuts and two types of dry cereal -- needless to say we skipped it. The pool was old and uninviting. The whole place was dumpy and in disrepair. I didn't see any evidence of a shuttle. Even if there was a pay shuttle, that would have been fine, but I didn't see one. There isn't a lot of parking and the hotel is right on a busy corner, so getting in and out of the parking lot can be challenging during high traffic times. I was trying to be budget conscious, but I would have rather paid an extra $20-30 per night and stay on Harbor Blvd directly across from the main entrance, which is what we usually do. It makes the trip a lot more pleasant.
