Well used priceline for the first time and after many attempts got a room at the Anaheim International Inn Travelodge for $40 a night.

Dont know anything about this hotel but I really wanted to go for my birthday, just me and the kids and we usually stay at PPH, but in order to get one more trip in this year it had to be very affordable.

We will spend little to no time at the hotel but are hoping for the best.

anyone ever stay here?

I'm stuck with it no matter what but just would like to know in advance what to prepare for.

going to disneyland for my birhtday : )

Tripadvisor.com gives it mixed ratings. Its main downfall seems to be customer service, but you would probably expect that with most economy lodging.

Have a great birthday at Disneyland!

I have never stayed there but several of the hotels I have stayed at have got mixed reviews on trip advisor, but we had really nice time, both times. I think a lot of times, it's what you make of it. Some people expect ALOT. I'm sure you'll have a great time. Congratulations on your extra trip and have a HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

Also... be aware that those with a bad experience (and an ax to grind) are far more likely to post a review than those who were satisfied. That is why I think a hotel with mixed reviews is likely to be OK. The really bad ones are almost entirely negative.

What star level is that hotel?

We find that 3* can be gotten for around $50, and have always been happy with them.

My family stayed there in 2003. I would definitely stay there again. It was not fancy at all, but was clean and safe and quiet. The pool was a little small, but very clean and refreshing. The hot tub was great also.
Breakfast was very basic - sweet rolls, juice, hot choc, but if you get sick of it there is a dennys right next door that was very tasty!
It was a long walk to the park,but the ART shuttle picks up right in front of the hotel.
The hotel staff wasn't overly helpful, but they were pleasant.
Overall it was a good experience and a wonderful value. I would definitely stay there again. Please let me know if you have any other questions about the International travel lodge.

Also, I know my stay was 6 years ago, but I have been to D-land 3 times since then and driven by the International travellodge and it looks like it has been maintained well.

it is a 2*, I started looking lower because I noticed that most of the 3* hotels charge between 12 and 20 a day for parking so that would make my 50 hotel closer to 70. really wanted to be under that so took a risk on the 2*, which seemed to include parking more often. 40 may be a little high for this one but I started at $18 lol.
