    Not sure who owns them, most likely they are too ashamed to admit it....;(

    Trip Advisor ratings are mixed but after my stay with their sister rouch motel The Anaheim Desert Inn and Suites I would never ever stay at ANY of those dives.....

    Cleanliness: One of the beds had bloodstains on the sheets. Kind of gross. I would give cleanliness a "C".

    Closeness and ease to the parks: practically across the street.

    Any other info would be helpful: If you are driving or have a rental car, be aware that parking is abhorrent. We had a 10 person suite and they only gave us 1 parking pass.

    The only other offsite hotels I've used are Howard Johnson's and Best Western Park Place Inn. I recommend both.
