Where to stay in July?

[iHEARTflorida]

I can't decide where to stay in Anaheim, for our 3 night trip to Disneyland, it will be a Father and Daughter [19] trip. Staying over July 25 - 28, looking for accomadation for $80 a night or less, with free breakfast and parking.

Two places I have found so far are;

Alpine Inn - $80 a night + tax, with free breakfast and parking, though the rooms look quite dated

BW Stovall's Inn - I liked the look of this place [the beds look comfy], I can get a good deal on Expedia for around $80 a night, free breakfast,though parking is $8 a day, and some people are saying this too too far from DL to walk

What do you think? Anyother hotels to add to the mix?

Thanks

Alpine's not 'too' bad. The breakfast aint nothin to write home about (none of are),but it's quiet and functional. I'm 'pretty' sure most,if not all rooms come with a fridge and nuker.

Between the 2, I'd go with Stovall's. Though both are older motels, the Alpine definitely feels its age, IMO. The rooms at Stovall's are newly remodeled & the beds are SUPER comfy; the rooms at the Alpine were rather shabby & the beds were OLD & HARD when I stayed there. You can take the "shortcut" (down Disneyland Drive & through the Grand Californian lobby) from Stovall's, as well as it being serviced by the ART bus. The pool area at Stovall's is about a million times nicer than the one at the Alpine, which is just a small pool, that didn't seem to be heated, surrounded by concrete & a chainlink fence. Pool area at Stovall's has 2 big pools, one heated, one not, 2 hot tubs, a kiddie pool, and is surrounded by topiary trees in animal shapes.

Don't know if you've found this page: http://book.bestwestern.com/bestwestern/priceAvail.do?propertyCode=05185 for Stovall's yet; I was able to book a room for my upcoming trip for around $70 a night, when the going rate is around $130! You just have to book ahead & prepay.
