We are usually Disney World visitors who always stay onsite although I have been to Disneyland a handful of times for day trips before marriage/kids and about 9 years ago we took our boys who were 8 and 5 at the time to Disneyland and we stayed at a Residence Inn and accessed the parks by shuttle. We now have 3 kids who will be 17 (boy), 13 (boy) and 8 (girl) at the time of the trip. We are squeezing in a visit to Disneyland when we are in the area for my nephew's wedding this summer. We will be joined by my adult sister at Disneyland. The first night all 6 of us will be spending the night but my oldest son and I will probably fly home early and not be there for the second night. I don't want to spend too much but prefer to be able to walk to the parks and want to be able to cancel for a full refund since our plans aren't firm. I made a reservation for two 2 queen bed rooms at the Days Inn on 1111 South Harbor for around $400 for the 2 nights total under the AARP rate. It seems to get mixed reviews due to age, quality of beds and breakfast and customer service but we aren't that picky as long as it is clean and safe. I then found the Hyatt Place Anaheim and under a Government Contractor's rate, I was able to reserve a room with a set of bunks in a area separated by French doors, a king bed and a sofa sleeper. The price was only about $25 more due total to their daily parking fee. Hyatt Place seems to be the clear winner since it sounds like it is a 10 min vs 15 min walk for Days Inn. It is much newer, breakfast is better and overall the reviews are better. But, we could be kinda crowded that first night with only 1 bathroom for the 6 of us and since I don't think anyone will want to share the sofa bed, we might have to share the king bed w/ my 8 year old if we aren't able to get a rollaway or no one is willing to sleep on the floor. It is all one larger, separated room instead of 2 hotel rooms, so less privacy for my sister who will have to sleep in one of the bunk beds in the alcove w/ one of my kids or on the sofa sleeper. She would get her own bed at Days Inn but would be sharing the room w/ at least one of my kids. Any advice for anyone who has stayed in either property?
