I drove in from Las Vegas to meet family the next day at Disneyland and I just needed a place to sleep for the night. I had read reviews saying the Star Inn was simple, clean and comfortable, and seeing that it was only about 20 miutes from Disneyland, I reserved a room with a single queen bed. At about five, I called the Star Inn to say I was going to be a late arrival and was told that would not be a problem, as they have someone at check-in 24/7.
I checked in about 10pm and found the desk clerk pleasant and efficient. She asked if I preferred a ground floor or 2nd floor room; I opted for something on the ground floor because I had bags to carry in. The room was not at all fancy, but it was extremely clean throughout, the bed was comfortable with crisp linens, and there was a small microwave and refrigerator in the room as well as the wall mounted TV. There was a small dresser and a table with two chairs at which you could work. The A/C and heat worked fine.
The hotel was easy to get to; it was close to the freeway and right off Newport Blvd. I found the room to be quiet and easy in which to sleep. At checkout the next morning I met another staff person who was friendly and efficient.
CONS: My room did not have a closet or hooks on which to put hangered clothes, so I had to improvise, hanging them from a door handle. The furnishings were not "designer new" but were serviceable and clean.
PROS: My room was extremely clean, check-in was easy, the staff was friendly, efficient and accommodating. The bed was comfortable and clean. The one night stay was about $70 (11/29/25) which was a third less than other hotels/motels I had checked out.
WOULD I STAY AGAIN? Yes. If I needed a room for one or two nights I would definitely stay at the Star Inn again.
