The streets are very busy, but there are crossing signs at every intersection down harbor blvd, where most of the good neighbor hotels are. There is also bus transportation that goes between disneyland and the good neighbor hotels .. each bus line serves a block of hotels. I cannot comment on the howard johnson, but i have stayed at the embassy suites and the hampton inn. I think those were about a mile from the entrance but it was certainly a doable walk (not with little ones unless they are in a stroller though). Also be aware that most of the hotels located closest to Disneyland do charge a per day parking fee. (some of them as much as 25 dollars a day)
