Anaheim Maingate Inn

Hotel

Rating this hotel is hard. Was it kinda gross? Yes. Was it a little smelly? Yes. Were the towels questionable? Yes. Was the wall paper peeling at spots? Yes. Was it very loud throughout the night? Yes. But was it the cheapest hotel close to Disneyland? Yes. Could you see fireworks extremely well from the hotel parking lot? Yes. So overall this definitely not the nicest hotel, but was very affordable and conveniently located.

Not bad if all you need is a bed. No frills but comfortable enough.

This was the most ••• DISGUSTING ••• place I have ever stayed, and my husband and I stayed at a hotel in Vegas that we nicknamed the "murder motel". Our original room was so gross and outdated that I asked to be transferred to another room, I couldn't bear the thought of bathing in the shower. While at 1st glance the new room looked good it WAS NOT! The walls are dirty, there was a giant booger smeared on the wall next to the headboard, change (as in money) on the ground next to the bed, extension cords hanging from the wall to plug in the TV, toilet seat WAS NOT clean had crusties on it and I had to scrub them off, hair (not just hair from someone's head) all over the bathroom floor/tub & door. There was also a foul odor coming from the closet sink area (it was so bad it was making me gag). I did not sleep well that night knowing I was sleeping in such filth. We ended up canceling the next night and booking across the street at the Best Western… thank goodness they had a room open!

Spacious room. Few stains on towels and sheets. Good price.

Location is decent, but it's a little bit of a walk to the closest tram to the park. Rooms were clean and nice enough for the price. We did get frustrated that we asked for a pack n play in advance and it was nowhere to be found when we checked in. We had a very tired and fussy baby and it took multiple checks at the front office before they finally found it. Otherwise, stay was fine.

This is an old place and it's aging poorly. The parking lot is small and always packed. The hallways are narrow and the stairs are steep. The beds are fine but don't have a bottom sheet and the pillows are practically nonexistent. Despite these there is a certain charm to the place, like stepping backwards in time. If all you're doing is laying down your head between trips to Disneyland then the proximity is perfectly acceptable, within walking distance from Downtown Disney.

DON'T STAY HERE! Rooms are awfully dirty, customer service is bad, shower has mold all around tile. Pictures they have on their website look nothing like the rooms you get. It's very close to Disneyland, they are over priced for the condition of the room. You're better off staying at a Motel 6. Attached is picture of bathroom tile! Save yourself the headache.

This isn't the newest or cleanest, but the staff are super nice and it is close to the parks. Walking use to take us 7 minutes to get to the tram and now it took 27 minutes with the new route. Still a great stay and super awesome staff. We asked for extra towels the first day and housekeeping left extras each day without us asking again. We will definitely stay here again.

Basic Hotel. Amazing Staff. Great value. Great location.

This hotel has nothing to do with the photos Q are published on Pag. Of reservation. Q Sorry to take pictures to the room, their beds and mattresses very incomfortable, there is the quality price as promoted, the reservation cost me more than $200 dollars and conditions are pesimas, I would not recommend to anyone. The only benefit is Q is 5 minutes away from Disney Park.

This hotel has a great price and great location to Disneyland, and easy check in. However you get what you pay for. The beds aren't comfortable, our bathroom has rust stains everywhere, the light above the sink has ceiling tile stuck in the grate, and the towels are threadbare and dingy. They offer a continental breakfast which consists of two types of muffins, juice and coffee. This place needs a serious ouverhaul. You want a place to sleep that's walking distance from the park? This is it. Do not expect anything else.

I swear for the whole week I was there they didn't change the comforter set and images rotating the sheets from Corners to corners it literally took for me to call them and say I want new sheets for the it actually to be changed. But the front staff was cool and nice. The views from the roof top are amazing.

No longer allowed to win through to Disneyland… But it was a great start as always.

Always gets the job done. Unfortunately they closed the walkway that was a shortcut to the park. But still a good value.

Rooms were small and poorly maintained. Bad wall repairs, different colored paints in room. Stayed there while visiting Disneyland, beds were decent but very thin blankets. The mini fridge was convenient and the newest thing in the room.

Parts of the room was in bad shape. But the price was cheaper than any other hotel near Disneyland.

I really enjoyed my stay at this place. It was cozy. The mini fridge kept our drinks super cold. Plus the shower was pretty huge. It was awesome taking a shower in there. The lady who attended us was really nice as well. Overall I would definitely recommend this place.

Since I read some disturbing reviews about this place, I was pleasantly surprised! The room was clean, nice wooden flooring, decent furniture, good mattress, new pillows, friendly housekeeping! The management just makes the mistake calling their sweet breakfast continental breakfast, what it naturally is not! Signs on hotelrooms with Escape Route, Emergency Numbers, are missing, no INFO ON PHONE how to call outside, roomtoroom, lobby, …! Lobby closed from 11pm til 7am! Where am I to drop my key without some stranger snatching it and possibly do havoc in this room? My cab driver and I got inventive! Should look under base of Disney Advertisement at the night counter drawer. Only way to get it out of sight unreachable to longfingers!

My experience: The bad: -Our rooms were clean… The problem is that they are old and not well maintained. -We had problems with the door for the entrance… We got locked in twice and one of those times we had to go out through the window. -Ripped shower curtains -Water pressure was horrible and the water would go from cold to hot. The good: -The staff seemed accommodating and fairly nice -Stayed 4 nights and the cleaning was done every day -Free muffins and coffee -Fridge and microwave -Parking was good -The area was not sketchy and overall I felt safe there -Very close to Disneyland Would I recommend to friends? Not at all. But I'm not picky and I knew I was there to sleep and be out and about all day. It was an ok place to spend the night for a cheap price.

Rooms are absolutely disgusting. After I complained about the stains all over the beds, they upgraded us to a room that has red goopy stuff all over the walls and the table tops, but at least the bed appeared better. We had already paid so we really didn't have a choice to leave. The second room smelled like straight sewage, but after turning the air on for a couple hours, the smell subsided.

The absolute worst "hotel" I've ever been in. Was in the room for no more than an hour before I had to go somewhere else. The lady at the front desk was incredibly rude when we told her about the state of our room, asking why it took us so long to complain to them about it (We were making sure we could make reservations elsewhere for the night). The chairs had red/black/brown stains all over them, the towels were yellow, parts of the counter in the bathroom were missing, the pillows had makeup stains on the them, the curtains had cigarette burns in them, and there was pubic hair all over the bathroom floor. It felt gross just standing in there. I HIGHLY recommend staying ANYWHERE ELSE in Anaheim. Can't imagine there is much worse than this place.

Nice quaint hotel. The room was clean. The only thing was I that I wished the AC was stronger. Our room was very warm. The staff was friendly and helpful and the breakfast in the morning was delicious and fast.

A 2 min walk and you get to Disneyland.

Very close to Disney, large rooms, light a bit deficient. Good attention, we did send packages to the hotel and received them without problems. Breakfast was very small. Very economical!

This motel has an ideal location to Disneyland Park. 3 min on foot to the park shuttle. This saves parking at Disneyland. Price for accommodation is relatively cheap, parking narrow but free. However, a gentle renovation of the building would be more than overdue. The love of small animals (ants) makes the stay easier. Sanitary facilities are out of date. It is unmistakable what happens in the neighboring rooms. Big street noise. Breakfast included but very meagre even by American standards and takes place in the ~ 9 m2 large and equipped with two chairs.

The only positive thing about this place is being super close to Disneyland, so we didn’t have to pay for parking. However, it’s near a high-traffic street so there’s a lot of noise at all times, specially at night! The restroom super ugly and smelly, the AC units are old and noisy, towels feel like sandpaper! The hotel pictures on the traveling websites are not real! The owner hasn’t spent a cent in maintenance to this place in probably more than a decade!

Location was great but that's about all I can say. The room I stayed in had had marker writing on parts of the walls. The floors were so dirty that just from walking around the room, my feet became completely covered in a black film of dirt. When I decided to take a shower. The showerhead barely worked and the drain plug would not stay up. I have NEVER stayed in such a bad place. For all this the price was ~$100 for the night. Outrageous! I will NEVER stay here again.

This place is absolutely gross. Do not stay here… Paper thin walls, you can literally hear everything your neighbors are saying (doing). Bathroom was nasty, shower was so dirty we wouldn't even use it to try to get clean in. Horribly uncomfortable beds with pillows that felt like disguised ziplock bags filled with straw. Just don't… Just don't. I honestly cannot comprehend how some have give my this 4 or even 3 stars.

I came here for a couple days visit to the area. We found the front desk employee to be very pleasant and it was very convenient to get to the tram over to Disneyland. Those are unfortunately the only positive things I can say. When we arrived, there was trash in the walkways and on the ac units. Walking into the room, the floors and beds were clean but there were cobwebs by the lights, the walls have not had a good cleaning or painting in far too long, and the air conditioner was falling apart and was barely secured to the wall. I asked housekeeping for extra pillows and it seemed to be an inconvenience. I had to request a hair dryer from the front desk. There was too much furniture in a very small space. No hangers in the small “closet” area by the luggage rack. The beds were in good condition but very low quality and uncomfortable. We left for Disneyland early the next morning to spend the day and when we went back mid-day, the curtains to our room were wide open so anyone walking by could see what was in there. HUGE SECURITY ISSUE! At 8:30am (check out is 11) the next day before my son was even out of bed, housekeeping knocked on the door and woke him up. Awful experience!

DON'T STAY HERE IF YOU VALUE YOUR HEALTH! If it were possible to give negative reviews, I WOULD! This place is just plain gross. Seriously, it's disgusting. I honestly believe the health department should be informed (and I plan to do so). We had to switch rooms because it was so terrible and even the new room was bad. My parents were also staying in this hotel at the same time and their room was nasty (that's 3 rooms, all the same issues, in case you are counting). Our first room: The A/C in didn't work and the buttons were all missing. The bathroom door wouldn't close (you couldn't even force it to close) because half of the back of it was missing. There was water damage all over the bathroom floor, walls and baseboard. Wires were hanging from the ceiling and the outlets had no covers on them and when you would plug something in, the plug was loose so, whatever you plugged in would fall out. The final straw (as if that wasn't enough) was the trash, dust, and balls of hair under the night stand and desk. Yup. They obviously don't like to clean. My parents room: there is a plastic bag tied over the smoke detector, the A/C was missing buttons, the wallpaper was falling down, the toilet was clogged and even after having maid service they came back to find the toilet had never been cleaned or unclogged (yes, they notified the front desk about the clog before they left), and the bottom sheet was missing on one of their double beds.

I've stayed at this hotel several times, and have always had great experiences. They seem to have updated everything recently. They aren't affiliated with Rodeway anymore and it seems to have been a positive move. Everything is nicer and it's really elvated from a more two star comfy place to sleep and shower style hotel to a nice place to kick back and relax all on its own. It is actually more convenient to stay here if you're going to the park than the hotels across the street from the front gate, as it is directly adjacent to a walkway that leads into the parking structure and to the trams. Fireworks are easy to see every night (but do tend to set off everyones car alarms) Parking would definately be the downside, it's cramped and hard to manage even in a smaller vehicle. Wifi is free but meh.

Hotel crap! prostictucion in the evening, the buisiness not addressed in the night closes the door and answers the phone, I've seen the concierge (oriental man) receives the key at 4 am from a man who prostituted women and gives them another man, rented rooms, several times a night, can not sleep with the noise, is NOT suitable for families or children! NOT recommend! also had some gang members hanging around the hotel.
Hotel malísimo! prostictucion en las noches, el conserge no atiende en la noche cierra la puerta y no atiende el telefono, he visto como el conserge (hombre oriental) recibe la llave a las 4 am de un hombre que prostituye a las mujeres, y se las da a otro hombre, alquila las habitaciones, varias veces en la noche, no se puede dormir con tanto ruido, NO es apto para familias o ninos! NO lo recomiendo! tambien habia algunos pandilleros dando vueltas por el hotel.
