Generally good choice!

The room is spacious and very clean. It's very quiet at night. The staff is very friendly. The only thing I complained is the slow wifi.

4/10 Fair

Not good at all

Not the greatest place. Not clean at all. Floors dirty, chairs and furniture in room filthy. Towels were very thread bare. I would not recommend this Motel.

Brenda, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

My stay was fine for one night. The area is busy and right off the highway. And the furniture is mismatched but for the price, I think the stay was adequate.

Patrick, 2-night trip

Good and afordablr for OC Fairgrounds.

Good place to stay for the OC Marathon weekend. Wakable to the fairground expo and finish line. Staff was friendly when checking in and out.
Michael, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

It was a good room for the price. I liked that it was a non-smoking property, the room smelled fine. The staff were friendly and helpful. The location was what it was; after all, I was looking for a cheap room. I would stay there again without hesitation.

Louis, 1-night trip

Very close to Costa Mesa Fairgrounds. Clean. Great service.
Travis, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This is our go-to place to stay whenever we’re in town. Check in is super easy, and the rooms are spacious and includes a fridge and microwave. They recently changed their policy for second vehicles is $10 but that makes sense because their parking is limited. For the location and room quality it’s definitely worth it!

The showers are great and the hotel staff is helpful
Daniel, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Excellent customer service, for the most part clean and the area felt safe and was exactly what we wanted for our 20 min walk to the Pacific Amphitheater. We were in room 106, the shower was remodeled at some point, which was nice and the pressure was great, plenty of HOT water! :) The mattress was comfortable, the AC works really well, fridge works great, and love the free parking with our car directly across from our room. No weird smells and surprisingly not noisy being so close to the freeway. My only suggestion would be to fix the broken table in the room and wipe down the walls, lots of handprints, lol, but other than that, we’d be back.
