"A wonderful hotel near the O.C. county fairgrounds, and just a 10-minute walk to Pacific Amphitheater. I got a quiet room as requested. It was clean, quiet, and spacious. Excellent hot breakfast. The staff was friendly and paid for a cab to take me to the airport in the morning. Stay here.2017-08-01"

"The staff was friendly and provided good customer service. Dogs were allowed. I highly recommend this hotel.2016-06-20"
"The hotel staff was polite and efficient, but the freeway noise was horrendous. No microwave or coffee maker. The toilet and toilet paper were of the lowest quality. The bathroom was clean, but the sink faucet was loose, and the toilet handle had to be held down for a while to make it flush. No breakfast; just a thermos of coffee and powdered creamer on a card table in the lobby. I've stayed here in the past, but it's gone dramatically downhill. Have low expectations.2021-12-13"
"The room was really dirty, and the carpet was a mess. There was mold in the corners of the bathroom. Other guests were loud and screamed at each other. The hotel clerks weren't very nice; the entire staff needed training in people skills. I'll never stay again.2015-07-21"
"The room room was clean and quiet; it had a balcony, but it was standing room only. The TV was old and not user-friendly. The staff was attentive, and breakfast was great. Other than the high parking fee, my experience was excellent.2016-07-21"
"Convenient to the highway and Newport Beach. My room request was honored, and the room and bathroom were clean and cozy. Some of the furniture was a little worn. The staff was professional and friendly. I recommend staying here.2015-07-02"

"A peaceful place to stay. Lots to do in the area. Great room, and it was really clean. The motel truck parking couldn't accommodating my 15-ft.

HotelGuides makes it easy to find hotels that are pet friendly. I also like the ease of changing reservations and that I don’t have to pay in advance.

How Do We Define Motel?
To us, motels are smaller lodgings that have rooms you can enter directly from the parking area.
At hotels, on the other hand, you can enter your room only through a hall inside the building.
Hotel Booking Tips
Beware of non-refundable reservations that could cost you a lot of money if you change or cancel them. +Non-refundable reservations are a gamble that will usually save you less than $10. If you make a $90 non-refundable reservation instead of a $100 refundable booking, you are betting $90 to win $10. Would you do that in Las Vegas? -
Don't assume you can cancel a non-refundable reservation without penalty if you notify the hotel weeks or even months in advance. +Often you cannot – because some hotels' profit strategy is to get paid more than once for the same room for the same night. -
Always read cancellation policies carefully before you make a reservation. + When is the latest date and time you can cancel without penalty? - More >
When you make a reservation, you will receive a confirmation email. Take a copy with you to the hotel.
The earlier in the afternoon you check into a hotel, the more likely you will get a room or suite that matches your preferences.
