Looking for a Hotel - Need Help

[Motown]

I'm looking for a hotel for our upcoming visit to Disneyland in June, and I'm having a hard time finding something that'll make everyone in my family happy. My wife and I are bringing my mom and my DS7. We're going to be staying June 20-24th. Here's what we need:

• Something with 2 sleeping areas. Doesn't have to be two bedrooms, but something with a door. My mom snores, and my wife is making this her top priority so she can stay rested on our trip.
• A pool would be really nice to have, it's one of my son's favorite things to do on Vacation.
• Walking distance would be nice, but this isn't a requirement. We have the premium pass at disneyland, and will be driving to the area, so we can drive each day if needed.

Any thoughts on how best to accomplish this? I'm hoping to do it without breaking the bank, but I understand having seperate areas is going to be more expensive than just sharing a two bed room.

Thanks in advance!

Try searching this forum for "suites" and you'll find some threads on this topic. I can only recommend the Howard Johnson, but their suites are probably booked already (call in house reservations since if there is only one suite left, it might not show up on the website).

Desert Inn & Suites also have suite options, but I stayed there last June and cannot recommend it. Its basic, no frills, and perhaps on the cheaper side. The pool is pretty awful though- its inside and not very nice (my opinion).

I stayed at the Anaheim Marriott Suites down Harbor--not the Marriott near the convention center. It had 2 rooms with a sofa bed in the other room. Not sure how comfortable it is. But the rooms were nice and roomy. Only downside was the beds were doubles rather than queens. I got the room for $118. I'd definitely stay there again.

The Embassy Suites has two rooms, a pool, and a great breakfast. Alas it is not within walking distance of the parks but the Anaheim Resort Transit serves it. I've slept on the fold out couch in the "front" room and it was OK.

The Residence in at the Park. It's on Clementine. It has all the different room types: Studio, 1 bedroom, 2 bedroom, even a Penthouse with a kind of loft with a king bed and it's own bath, plus additional beds downstairs, and bath.
All of the rooms come with a full kitchen, and living space.
Nice pool and full cooked to order breakfast/buffett. I love this place, as do many other's on this board.

Have lots of fun!

We got a great rate at the Homewood Suites (around 90.00/night)

Living room has a sleeper sofa, and the seperate bedroom with 2 queens.

Good luck!

Anywhere you go...make sure you check on parking fees since you'll have a car. Even if you think you are getting a good deal on the hotel, the parking fees can sometimes be $15+ per night.

I think the Embassy Suites might be perfect. I'm going to sit down with your suggestions and check out rates tonight, thanks all!
