How everything is set up
The door from the restroom was broken and the ice machine by our room wasn’t working so we had to walk all around d the hotel just to get ice at night time so inconvenient but overall everything else was good.

Location, Location, Location. My room was nice. I may choose rooms that I like to stay in when I come, 159, 160, or 161. My bed was nice, but I think you should spend more money and get better mattresses. But other than that, I love the place, plus In and Out is walking distance from that side of the motel
Spend the money on a new mattress, maybe get a little TV, and fix the ice machine on the side of the Motel

it's close to my other office, it takes about 3-4 min to get to work, that's why I stay there, plus there a in-out and Denney's across the street, and the 405 is very close, about 5 to 10 min away, there's a shopping center
You need to fix the A/C and get a bigger T.V. in the whole room. I'm not asking 70'' but I think a 45" to 50" would be nice, and get a better mattress. I wanted to take a shower, and when I turned on the heat to warm up the room, all I got was cold air. I was told that some people don't like that heat, but I'm not one of those people I like to be warm in my room

5.0 / 10.0
I have stayed here before and it was the same. It was adequate nothing bad to say, but nothing over the top to say either. This time when I arrive there, I was greeted really nicely by the staff .
I stayed the first night and like I said it’s adequate and I was comfortable however, the bath towels were dirty. The faucets were leaking and after the next day when I left and then when I came back to the room, I had an issue with the key two different times they had to give me a different room and it was late so that was unfortunate.

The room was dirty, smelled bad, and it looked like there was black mold in areas of the ceiling and bathroom. Toilet was NOT cleaned well after last guest. Bed was hard like a board. Lobby and breakfast area were dirty. But the pool and pool area looked really nice.

Convenience, especially for where I needed to go the next morning.
I woke up with a sore stiff back. The bed was way too soft and not the greatest price for a one night stay. I mean it worked, but I don't believe it was worth the price.

The room smelt bad. It was hot, red flags, one after the other, from the jump
So my granddaughter and I were laying in bed, she got up briefly, went to lay down and there was a cockroach on her pillow right next to her head was a filthy dirty place so then I come to my daughter-in-law’s house and turns out I have a hitchhiker I brought a cockroach with me. I spent all night Making sure there were no cockroaches in my bags. I don’t know what my vehicle looks like. I haven’t had a lick of sleep I’ve been up since four in the morning. I’ve been out in the sun at the beach at Newport dunes planned on having a relaxing night taking a bath there were no plugs for the tub And then that cockroach issue. It was horrendous

Sleeping and hot water.
They wouldn't switch rooms or fix the air and non working vents. It was very cold and raining outside but very warm and humid inside. Air was barely on and musky warm never cool or cold or medium/high flow. Staff was very rude on requests for maintenance and for switching rooms 3 days in a row. Both staff at night young would constantly be on his phone and the day time older gal nothing but distaste for every word I had from first to last. She really hates polite people.

How dirty and hot it was with no Ac
8.0 / 10.0
Pool & hot tub were available. There was 2 other hotels which I won't name in the same area- the Pool(s)hot tub(s) were not available & it was advertised pool/ hot tubs- when we checked in neither one of the hotels mentioned the pool/ hot tubs were not available- we found out after we got ready yo go down to the pool- !!!!🤬- We got refunds& left!
Took awhile to check out 20 minutes- should have been a quicker/ smoother check out.

Housekeeping staff exceptionally friendly with guest
Room 219. Costa Mesa. Front desk wasn't good at problem solving, getting upset with paying customers, therefore employee needs professional customer service training. Roaches in the rooms, manager no where to be found I had to keep calling the office until he "arrived". Was going to stay for 2 weeks but the rudeness drove me to your competition for the remainder of my business stay

Close to the highway. The staff was very nice.
Our room was extremely dirty. The floor was not swept clean, roaches and various bugs throughout the room. Beds were very worn. Bed covers and sheets were not clean and should have been replaced due to age. No fan or a/c working which made the room very uncomfortable. The walls and baseboards were not clean and needed painting. The guests above us and next to us were very loud throughout the night and almost seemed to be living there as they were cooking in the rooms. Due to these factors we were unable to sleep and decided to leave at 3am with no place to go just to be out of the room. When we were leaving at this hour we saw various people walking through the parking lot that didn't seem to be staying at this hotel. Do not stay at this hotel.

Where do I begin…smell,!condition of property and most importantly rooms! My goodness, our first room was awful; the smell was horrific, the bathroom vanity was cracked sink looked like it came from an abandoned home, the entire bathroom needed to be demolished and redone. Can I tell you about the roaches!?!! keep the lights on or they will definitely come and join you. Luckily we were moved to another room, which wasn’t any better than our first. Once again, the smell! The target was only a few minutes away, so we loaded up with bleach/Ajax to scrub the tub ourselves and of course air freshener. Beds need to be replaced, pillows are old, and pillowcases are stained. Again luckily, Target is near, so we purchased pillowcases and sheets. We Observed some of the other guests and some seemed to be living there long term! not sure if the property is part of the homeless program where they provide rooms on a voucher. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS MOTEL, and I am disappointed that booking.com would even recommend this place to their users!!!
