WDW veteran and family planning on taking 2nd Disneyland trip in May. For our first trip last year we stayed at the Disneyland Hotel, which we really liked. Was hoping to stay at the Grand Californian this year, but at the least stay again at DLH. The cost is concerning me. I've done more research than I care to about all the hotels up and down Harbour Blvd. We want to be within easy walking distance, but also want to stay in the bubble. I know many people will say it's not as important at DLR as it is at WDW, but I disagree. I loveed not having to leave Disney property. And the ease of walking through that short security line as opposed to all these nightmare stories I'm reading about getting through security at the main entrance off Harbour. Also, my kids love a nice pool, which are few and far between outside of the DLH and GCH. I just loved the feeling and immersion at both parks so much and I don't want spoiled knowing I'd have to head offsite each evening. I'm seriously considering not going if I can't swing the cost of staying at the above mentioned just not to set myself up for disappointment. Anyone ever felt like this at DLR and what did you do about it?
