It's seriously amazing how far it is from the Front Gate (about a 20 minute walk) and they don't even have a direct shuttle (at least they didn't when we stayed there 2 years ago). When you spend so much time walking around the parks, you don't want to waste precious energy and time getting to/from them, honestly. As far as location, if you want to be close enough to duck out in the middle of the day (which I cannot recommend enough), when the sun's the hottest and the crowds are the worst, choose a hotel who's address is around the mid 1500s on S. Harbor Boulevard. Like many have said, there are lots and you'll be able to find a good deal. We like the Park Vue Inn, and have stayed there 5 times in the last three years. Never a bad experience (and you really connot beat how close they are to the Front Gate), but don't pay more than $65/night (I've seen them ask for upwards of $125+, and they do not rate that much, they are 2 stars after all.) We're going to try Park Inn Anaheim in August, and I'll let you know how that was. Hope this was helpful. :)
