The budget Americas Best
Value Inn & Suites is within walking distance of Disneyland attractions, GardenWalk, and restaurants. The 44 rooms, which include Family and Four-Bed Suites, come with flat-screen TVs, microwaves, coffeemakers, and mini-fridges -- and some have big jetted tubs and views of the Disneyland fireworks. But furnishings show a bit of wear and tear, with stained carpeting in some places, and guests have complained about thin walls, and a pervasive smell of cleaning products in the rooms. An outdoor pool, hot tub, and two running fountains surrounded by two stories of rooms take center stage here. A continental breakfast is included in the room rate, along with Wi-Fi. Another budget alternative to consider is the neighboring Castle Inn and Suites.
Scene
A budget hotel with outdoor pool, hot tub, and fountains
A blocky brown-and-cream-colored exterior leads to the property's small lobby with yellow walls, light tile, and tan
granite countertops. Black chairs provide seating, and the multiple windows bring in plenty of light, but overall the look is budget and no-frills. The hotel's best feature is the free-form pool and whirlpool surrounded by open-air hallways. Grounds are well landscaped with trees and shrubs -- two running fountains sit amid bricks and plants.
Location
Convenient central location with many top sights within walking distance
Americas Best Value Inn
& Suites sits on a busy main street with Anaheim GardenWalk, the Anaheim
Convention Center, restaurants, and convenience stores within a five-minute walk.
Disneyland, Downtown Disney, and Disney California Adventure Park are within a
15-minute walk, and the Grove of Anaheim, the American Sports
Center, Angel Stadium, and the Crystal Cathedral are within a five-minute drive. The
Honda Center is within a 10-minute drive. John Wayne Airport is
about a 15-minute drive.
Rooms
Budget-style rooms with coffeemakers, flat-screen TVs, microwaves, and mini-fridges
Rooms range from Standard Rooms to Suites with up to four beds, and have small seating areas. Decor consists of green carpeting, red accent walls, and gold
bedspreads. All rooms come with microwaves,
mini-fridges, flat-screen TVs with premium HBO, and coffeemakers. Some rooms offer views of the Disneyland fireworks, and have big jetted tubs and
wooden floors in lieu of carpeting. Guests complain about thin walls that let in exterior
noise, worn and stained carpeting, and the overpowering smell of cleaning products. Beige-painted bathrooms have shower/tub combos (some have modern tile), hairdryers, and provide Americas Best Value
Inn & Suites toiletries.
Features
Pleasant outdoor pool and hot tub, plus free continental breakfast, Wi-Fi, and parking
The free-form outdoor
pool and hot tub occupy the center of the property, surrounded by two stories of rooms. A grab-and-go continental breakfast is included in the room rate, and includes pastries, coffee, fruit, and juice -- guests rate it so-so. There's free outdoor parking and free Wi-Fi throughout the property, but guests complain the signal is slow.
