This hotel is a newer structure and very well maintained. It also has a parking garage for guests which is easily accessible. The room was large and quiet, beds very comfortable, nice bathroom too. The breakfast options are typical to the chain with a limited fruit selection, otherwise it was fine. Easy access to the highway makes the location ideal to explore the local attractions and shopping centres. Friendly staff, would stay here again.

We arrived 3 hours prior to check-in. Our room was already available, but we were told that if we wanted to use it earlier we would have to pay $50 extra. I did not expect this from a chain hotel in this location.

Breakfast is really good. It’s served in a small room, though, and gets unpleasantly crowded toward closing time. Go early. Everything is nice for the price—you’re well located but the particular area of the hotel is not too appealing. If you want to walk for dinner, Our Bar is a block away. It’s a small bar that also serves really good food (w/ a kid’s menu). Our teen loved it.

Nothing to complain about really. It’s not a 4-star hotel.

A smallish hotel with clean, pleasant rooms. Breakfast was better than many peer hotels. Very much liked the free underground parking. We were visiting Orange Coast College, and this location was convenient to OCC and also a little beach exploring at Newport Beach.

That they have a safe parking garage, they put us close to the pool. The staff was very friendly. The room was really clean. I like that it came with the big shampoo , conditioner and soap dispensers in the shower.

The only thing I can complain about is the pillows it’s like you’re laying on nothing and it left a kink in my neck that took two days to go away.

The staff was always willing to help and everyone was so nice and friendly. I love that breakfast was hot and delicious every morning. The entire hotel had a lovely atmosphere and I would most definitely stay there again!!

Nothing. Everything was wonderful. I had no issues, I felt safe, and the staff was friendly. I had no issues throughout my entire week stay.

The British guy who "catered" the breakfast both days was delightful and efficient. Charming as well.

It was fine for the mid-range hotel it is. Hard to complain.

Stayed with three family members for the last three nights of a nine night vacation. This location exceeded our expectations in every way. Rooms were clean, beds were comfortable with plenty of pillows and the staff was very friendly and helpful. The room itself had a microwave, fridge and k-cup coffee maker - couldn’t ask for more! Thoroughly enjoyed our stay!!

We stayed here for 3 weeks. You can’t ask for more in a budget hotel. Staff were very helpful. Breakfast was nice. Room was spacious. Location is central to anything you need. Laundry facility was a nice touch. Bonus point for complimentary printing as I needed to print a few documents for work! Room isn’t cleaned everyday due to covid unless requested and the bed was a little too soft but it wasn’t a problem. Keep up the good work.

Lean facility, great breakfast for on the go.

Wanted to stay a 2nd night but rate was much higher. Would have been nice if they honored rate paid for first night so we could have stayed longer.
