Hi-I'm trying to book a last minute trip in August.

I've narrowed it down to three hotels.

Here's are needs- we have two teenagers 13 and 15, we would like a hotel with a nice continetal breakfast, also a decent pool. I've searched for a suite and narrowed it down to three, the Staybridge, La Quinta and the Homewood. I see the the Homewood is doing some light remodeling, any idea how extensive it is?

Can anyone give me info or preferences on these three?

Also any one booked with Get Away Today? Or suggestions on where to get a great last minute deal.

Thanks,

Jenny

Have you looked at the customer reviews for these hotels on Trip Advisor? Here's a link to all of the Anaheim hotels (which are listed in order of 'customer preference' (first in the list is 'most preferred' and so on)): Link and scroll down for the reviews in the center column:

As far as the construction at the Homewood, the staff at the hotel would be the most knowledgeable source for this type of information, especially since they know what work is "coming up" during the time of your stay. JUst call and ask. (If you feel that you wouldn't get an honest answer from a hotel employee about the construction, then that would be reason enough not to stay there -- who would want to be treated so disrespectfully?).

I can't help with the hotels, but I have ordered tickets from Get Away Today. It was super easy and they arrived quickly. I haven't used them for booking a whole trip as it's very easy for us to just book it all separately, but I wouldn't have a problem booking with them as I have had a pleasant experience with them in the past. I have also read on other fourms plenty of people having a good experience with them.

Goo luck and have a great trip!

The Disneyland Hotels are not just located in Anaheim, there is a group of Hotels near the corner of Harbor and Chapman that also call themselves as part of the Disneyland area. Such is the case with Homewood, and you can find its reviews in the Garden Grove, CA reviews, since its actual address is located in Garden Grove. Here is the direct link to their reviews...
