I was looking online at a few places..and I'm really trying to stay VERY inexpensive this time around.. clean, not gross..nice rooms, all that! Anyone know of Travel Lodge on Katela? It seems like I could get into the park the "back way" and it looked clean and decent. Can I get into the park by way of California Adventure? Any other suggestions you have would be greatly appreciated...but I need to book soon!!! Thanks so much!

I found it acceptable as far as being clean and fairly comfortable but you have to walk the same distance as the walk to the park to find a restaurant. The closest are on Harbor Blvd.
