We will be staying at the Best Western Raffles this weekend and someone told me to walk to the Toy Story parking lot and catch the shuttle. Where do I find said shuttle?
It is off Harbor Blvd., opposite the Hilton Anaheim. I am thinking Convention Center Way. If you are coming up Harbor from Raffles, it is on the right hand side. The buses are in the lot.

I would like to consider the Doubletree Suites near by for our summer trip. I just want to make sure that it is acceptable to use the Toy Story lot if not parking there. Has anyone ever been stopped & questioned when using the Toy Story buses?
We stayed at the Red Lion and I specifically asked at the lot if we could walk and ride and I was told it was not a problem at all. I asked in July and a month later we walked and rode for a long weekend and it was perfect, no one questioned us or said anything at all.
Is Harbor the only entrance? We're staying at the Worldmark Anaheim (Katella and Zeyn St)and it looks like it's just across the street, but is it really that easy? Where exactly would we have to go to catch the shuttle? Thanks!
You would not use it from the Worldmark. It is too far from the entrance and actually there is a huge CM parking lot just north of the Toy Story Lot.
The only way to enter the lot (by foot or by car) is from Harbor where it is intersected by Convention Way. We used it from the Red Lion, the attendants can see you walking up the entry... there is a sidewalk. I would totally recommend it as they have many shuttles that leave and return every 5-10 minutes and take you all the way into the DL shuttle stop by the bag check/esplanade entrance.
Definitely use it if you are staying at the Clarion, Red Lion, Raffles or Cortona. Maybe some of the other hotels near Convention Way and Harbor too, but you are getting farther out and at that point you may want to consider ART, hotel shuttles or just walking if you are any farther north of the lot.

Harbor is the only official entrance and the safest way to catch a shuttle. You could in theory use the CM entrance but I don't recommend it and they may actually approach you and ask you not to use it. When the shuttles exit the TS lot they pass through the CM lot and drive right past the GW, that's how they reenter as well. I don't recommend going in that way. As the PP said you would have to walk to Harbor and turn left, pass the Red Lion and enter from Harbor, walk to the shuttle and board. On the way back you'd have to do the same. When we stay at the Peacock (SVC owners) we just drive to the TS lot and park.
