"Loved the cozy environment. Helpful staff. The dirty beach chairs should be replaced."

Holiday Inn Santa Ana-Orange Co. Arpt by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Our plan was to stay here 1 night then move closer to lake tahoe as that was our primary attraction but the place was so good we decided to extend for additional nights and the duration of our trip. Breakfast was very good and the kitchen inside the room was a plus."
