I gave this property a very high rating and itnis because for the price you pay this is as good as it gets. The rooms are certainly older so they have their wear, but the pool and hot tub are very nice and the property while maybe not updated is well kept, the service is nice, and they have coffee, cereal, snd assorrwd breads in the office in the morning. It is also right next to tbe freeway and not too far from Newport Beach.

Property grounds were beautiful and well kept. The rooms were nice, the bathroom was clean but it could use a revamp. Stayed here because it was close to The Observatory (went for a concert) and for the price I paid, I would 100% stay here again.

Christina

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The room was clean and the staff were nice. Loved that the rooms had hard floors instead of carpet. It was an older property and had that older hotel smell, and it’s been a while since the rooms had been painted from the wear and tear. They are doing some sort of renovation with some beds and furniture out in the parking area. Great location with walking distance to both food or grocery. Felt like they were doing their best with an older property, and for the budget conscious it is convenient and a good value.
