• It was 3 minutes from the surgery center.
• It had an instantly horrible smell right when you walked in the building & this smelled was on clothes & got in your hair.

“The beds dipped in the middle - should buy new beds. Should try to get the smell out of the motel -it was a terrible stale smell.”

• Room was clean and comfortable.
• Proximity to train tracks, they don't always make sure items in the room actually work.

“I stayed here because my home was being tented for termites and I wanted something close to my office. The location was great; a 2-minute commute, but the trains took some getting used to. They do run all night but did not affect my sleep. The room was clean and comfortable and reasonably sized and not a shoe-box like some. I would not rate the motel (and it is a motel, not a hotel) high in maintenance, my first room had a broken U-lock and nonworking air conditioning. They were very nice about relocating me but these are things that should be checked each time a room is being readied for a guest. The Continental breakfast was quite adequate, a variety of breads, bagels and waffles for the toaster, hard-boiled eggs, yogurt, cereal and milk, fruit, juice, etc.”

• Clean, Quiet, and very Dog Friendly!
• Wireless Internet didn't work in the room we were in.

“We chose this hotel because it was dog-friendly and close to the event we were attending. We were very pleasantly surprised at how nice it was. Staff was courteous and helpful. Room clean and quiet, and they did not charge us an extra fee for our dogs, in fact we felt that the dogs were welcomed. Breakfast was good, and the area clean and pleasant. There is a very popular restaurant and bar in the same parking lot, but we could not hear it. Overall the room was very quiet and well insulated. My only problem was that the wireless internet didn't work in our room (did elsewhere in the hotel such as the lobby) and even after spending time with the tech support I could not get internet connection in the room. This would have been more of a problem if I had been there for business rather than pleasure.”

• Comfort.
• Too close to railroad, fast track.

“Entering the lobby was delightful with a smiling receptionist. Directions to room adequate. Exercise room very nice. The ear plugs helped a little. Liked the open space outside the windows.”

• Dirty room.

“This hotel is better than the worst and barely adequate for business travel. I would not take my family here. The staff is doing you a favor to help and the rooms are dirty.”

• It was easy to get a room on short notice.
• The service at the front desk was slow and inattentive.

“For what I needed, a room for one night just to sleep, this hotel fit my needs. I wouldn't stay here for an extended period of time. The proximity to the train and the staff was a turn off for me.”

• Unique construction, turning an old concrete age. Silo into motel, I liked it.
• Breakfast was weak.

“Overall I liked it; the six sided concrete rooms converted from a grain silo were cool. You can't move the railroad tracks and the concrete room really held the noise way down. One thing that could be greatly improved on is the breakfast.”

• I like the historic buildings surrounding the premises and the train sound.
• I didn't like the way the elevator is only on one side of the building.

“We have stayed at this hotel five or more times with our family. The historic buildings are quaint and the cute little burger restaurant makes all of us feel at home. Beach access is around the corner. The free breakfast is wonderful and healthy for everyone.”

• Nothing!
• Located right next to a well traveled set of train tracks!

“This was the worst experience I have had at a hotel location in a long time. The hotel was situated between the very busy 5 Fwy and a pair of railroad tracks! Upon check in, I had noticed the 5 Fwy and asked the front desk if I could get on the "quiet side" of the hotel away from the 5 freeway traffic noise. The said no problem, what they did not tell me was the other side of this hotel is situated right next to a pair of well traveled railroad tracks! Upon arrival to my room, I immediately "experienced" the first train go by which simulated a Boeing 747 landing in my hotel room! Within 15 minutes of being in my room yet another train came "storming" through my room! I finally called the front desk and asked how many more trains do they expect between now and tomorrow morning? He said maybe 2-3 more. As it turned out, that was a absolute lie! I had these thundering trains go by about every hour on the hour (for a total of about 6 of them) for my nights stay! When you are on the 4th floor such as I was, you literally look down on top of the train cars! This is how close you are to the tracks! I would not recommend this hotel to my worst enemy!”

• The staff was very nice and accommodating.
• Train track went right by hotel.

“Clean, friendly, good location, easy to get to Laguna beach and Newport beach. Would stay there again. Local train was close but went by fast and did not wake my up.”

• Staff very friendly.
• Too close to the train tracks.

“I would NEVER stay at this property again. It sits right beside some VERY active train tracks. The trains come through all night long, and due to the street they cross, they must sound their horns as they approach. There is NO WAY to sleep through this noise. Horrible night's rest.”

• Hotel was nice, Internet connection great.
• My room was not serviced one night although I had gone to the desk at 14:00 and requested cleaning.

“No price adjustment offer from management for not having my room cleaned one night of a four night stay. Otherwise I will give them one more chance and stay here again.”

• Clean, comfortable room, free breakfast, pool and exercise room.
• The hotel is right next to the railroad tracks. Noise can be a problem to sensitive people.

“Overall, a decent hotel. Clean room, looked newly renovated. Relatively close to most Orange County attractions, or within a reasonable driving distance. There is really nothing of note within walking distance. A bit far for visitors who want to visit Los Angeles proper, but then almost everything you want to do or see is about a half hour drive anyway in the LA-Orange County area.”

• They just replaced the beds and front desk help, Chris, was GREAT!
• Being on the Train side could be rather loud at times, but I enjoyed my stay.

“I loved it. I hope that was short enough.”

• Closeness to restaurants.
• Van service to airport did not start early enough.

“The only negative thing I can say about this hotel was that their airport van did not start service until 7:00AM, Their breakfast service started at 6:00AM I had a 6:30AM flight therefore I had to take a taxi to the airport and had to leave at 5:00AM. I had to pay for both the taxi and my breakfast at the airport. When a hotel is selected in the airport area I believe it should accommodate travelers all hours of the airports operations.”
