Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
I would like to say the location is convenient foe anyone traveling to the beach areas. Much to choose for fast food or dining areas. However, the cleanliness of the rooms could use better practices and preparation. The staff was willing to relocate me to a room I saw dit for my family's stay. From inspecting a few rooms, I noticed that renovation or even some paint in some areas of the rooms would be great. Up to date additions in the rooms are needed such as fixtures for lighting and sockets. Pool area was decent and had many tables and lounging chairs. Clean. Some suspicious people were walking in the area but no apparent threat to my observation. The continental breakfast was decent as well and plenty for having seconds. Good cereal, pastries, juices, and hot coffee. Overall theres much to be desired from this stay, however it wasn't a nightmare. From someone who's stayed in many cities, this was a solid 2.4 out of 5 stars.

It smelled really moldy and I feel like I got sick because of the stinky moldy smell. I would request a refund and request the city to inspect it because it’s not healthy breathing mold

Someone hacked my Expedia account and used my credit to book a one-night stay at this place. I contacted Expedia immediately to report the fraudulent charge, but they claimed they reached out to the property and couldn’t do anything to refund or reverse it, even though I reported it right away! This is completely unacceptable. Both Expedia and the hotel handled this situation terribly and showed no accountability. It’s disappointing to see them allow and enable this kind of behavior instead of doing the right thing.

This hotel is clean, the staff is friendly, the rates are low, the hot tub and pool are great, there is always coffee available in the lobby, in and out is in the same parking lot so it seems to be pretty safe and the shower water pressure is unbelievably good. The manager, Kelly is fantastic! This location is extremely convenient next to the 405 freeway in 10 minutes from the beach. Incredible amount of restaurants, markets, and stores in the area. There are no major luxuries at this hotel, but it is a great value, clean room, and all you need for an affordable night or two in OC!
