I am also unfamiliar w/what hotels around Disneyland are included in there (they are not like Disney World where they really announce it )
However, if you give me a couple of the names you are thinking about I can let you know if they are good or bad - I live fairly close and will give u any input I may have. Send me a message or I will check the postings

According to the Disney website the Good Neighbor Hotels "Economy" are:
Best Western Stovall's Inn
Tropicana Inn
Anaheim Travelodge
Anaheim Ramada Inn
Best Western Pavillions
Conestoga at Disneyland Park
Ramada Maingate Saga Inn
Red Roof Inn Anaheim
Red Roof Inn Santa Ana
Maybe this helps you?

My Suggestion
For the Good Neighborhood Hotels I like; Westcoast Anaheim, Radisson Maingate, The Anabella, Carousel Inn and Suites, Candy Cane Inn and Portafino. It just kind of depends if you want a continental breakfast and so forth. Of all these I would suggest The Candy Cane. Hope this helps, have a Disney Day!!!

Are you talking about the Good Neighbor resorts in Disneyland or WDW?

Since we are in the Disneyland Discussion area I assume they meant Disneyland. Have a Disney Day!!!

Using search, I dug up this 6 year old thread on good neighbor hotels at DL. Since it's been so long, do the recommendations stand? Have any of the hotels 'slipped' or might be in need of a refrub? Have any been recently rehabbed?
I'm interested in a moderate good neighbor hotel as close as possible to DL. I've heard good things about the Howard Johnsons (only 1 block away). The Anabella also comes up a lot. What are the pros and cons of this hotel?
Any information would be appreciated. I am planning a visit in mid-Oct. Thanks!

Hojos is a great choice, its about a 10-15 walk from Hojos to the DLR entrance plus another 5 to the actual park gates not that bad at all. The rates are extreamly well priced in the way its not over priced and not under. There getting a new water play area with slides and such opening in July/Aug 08. Great hotel clean, close and nice. Only down side is theres no on site food, but Mimi's Cafe it right across the street and they have the best blue berry muffins.
Cant comment on Anabella since I only stay ay Hojo's

Do NOT stay at the Anabella! I just got back from there and the service was terrible. The walls and ceilings are paper thin and when combined with hardwood floors in the rooms, well let’s just say sleeping was not good with the upstairs neighbor wearing high heels. They would not clean the room until around 5 to 6 PM. This was just the time we wanted to be in the room to freshen up for dinner. There were huge bugs in the room and don’t get me started on the poor service in their restaurant. And the day that a bell boy tried to break down our door at 9AM was unacceptable as well. When he found the door locked, he actually put his shoulder into it to break in. When I quickly opened the door, he realized he had the wrong room. Guess he forgot to knock first.

Thanks, Nemofinder22,for the endorsement and details (including the blue berry muffins - YUM!).
Thanks, hoppypooh. I didn't realize this property was ranked one of the best in the USA. I've had some so-so experiences with other HoJos, so this helps a lot.
psuchad - OMG - I'm so sorry about your experience and thank you for the warning. I have crossed the Anabella off my list.

Forgot to mention, for some reason somebody was requesting a room change every time I was in the lobby. From my experience, I can only imagine.

Its not on the cheap side, but the Hilton is the best. I stay there every New Years, and we love it. It have a great park view, its clean and really nice.

We stayed at the Fairfield Inn by Marriott in '05. We thought it was a nice hotel with very friendly staff. It is very close to HoJo's, which is across the street from Disneyland. We would stay there again. No continental breakfast though.

If you're looking for CHEAP, I can recommend the Ramada Limited Suites on S Harbor. They recently renovated so the rooms are very clean. The staff is friendly and they have free breakfast. The location is about 5 minute drive to the DL parking garage. It's not fancy, but the beds are comfy and the price is right.

We switched from HoJo to Candy Cane in this week for August.
We weighed the water park for the kids against the 5 minutes + saved walking each way, not crossing the street, and free breakfast. We decided that Candy Cane fit our needs better for a 7 night trip with 8 day passes to DLR.
