I almost forgot I stayed here! One night only, and it obviously was not anything memorable, but let me tell you what I liked. Since I only stayed here for 1 night, I’m going to skip all my subheadings. I’ll post all the pictures and the video at the end of my summary. When I…

The Westin Anaheim Resort is located at the corner of Disneyland Drive on Katella Avenue. Don’t let it’s location fool you — it’s not the easy walk it might seem.
