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!
