When Disneyland was first built, it was surrounded by a berm, an earthen wall designed to make it difficult, if not impossible, to see the world outside the park. This wasn’t really an issue 70 years ago when Disneyland opened, and Anaheim was little more than orange trees, but in the years that followed, Anaheim exploded, adding restaurants, hotels, and more to cater to tourists visiting the Happiest Place on Earth.
Disneyland Resort has three amazing hotels of its own, but there’s little argument that they can be quite expensive. For this reason, many choose to stay at one of the dozens of hotels within a few blocks of the area. This is usually no big deal because there is a convenient shuttle service, the Anahim Resort Transit (ART), that will take you from your hotel to Disneyland for just a few bucks each way. Or at least, there was.
