I’ve been here a three or four times and every time we come it somehow is better than the last. The owners of this hotel have renovated it PERFECTLY and have put allot of effort into the comfort and details of this place. Like said, every time I have come something has been new and improved I couldn’t speak more highly of this place. The extra toothbrushes and comb addition saved our night this time thank you !! The bed and pillows are incredibly comfortable, I especially love the long blue throw pillow for laying down and watching TV, really nice TV, fridge/ microwave, plenty of phone charging space and good low lighting to chill out at night. It’s quiet here and has a clean pool and hot tub! Love it

Friendly staff makes all the difference, customer service is out of this world. Very accommodating and helpful Nimi Megan, so sweet, couldn't ask for a better staff, it was really appreciated. Rooms are large and modern, and close to everything.

As others have stated, this is an old 2 story motel that has had a major renovation. At first glance, the renovation is very impressive inside and out, rooms are large, bedding comfortable, HVAC works well (whereas many hotels in the area have working AC and about half the time the heat does not work at all), rooms are quiet. Showers (no tub) are the rainfall type in a new tile enclosure. The neighborhood is mixed; businesses, new homes, older homes. There are several restaurants and a convenience store within a safe 5 minute walk. Although the address is Costa Mesa, it is on the border of downtown Newport Beach. Getting to Newport or Huntington beaches is a short drive. It is adjacent to a major highway, Rt 55, but you can’t hear traffic in the rooms and the closeness allows quick access to Orange County freeways. However, be aware that Rt 55 between the 405 and 5 is slow bumper to bumper each way from about 9 AM to 7 PM. Management should also get kudos for the large FREE parking spaces while most of their competition charges a parking fee. The office staff was courteous and helpful.I mentioned “first glance” because upon closer inspection some obvious short cuts were taken in the renovation. Damaged ceilings and doors were just repainted without refinishing the door dings or refinishing old repairs of ceiling water damage. They made a poor choice in upholstery for their ottomans in the rooms and the benches in the lobby which are already showing serious wear. In your room you will see an occasional recent stain or ding on walls, etc. None of this detracts from the quality of your sleep but indicates that keeping rooms “like new” requires constant maintenance. My only quibble with the rooms is that the towels are small and scratchy which seriously detracts from a first class experience. Toiletries are also Spartan. Rooms did have a mini-fridge, microwave, full ironing board and iron, and a bathrobe.The only significant disappointment was the free breakfast. Forget the photos supplied by the hotel. They are proud of their automatic coffee machine that makes single servings of late, espresso, etc. but reviews by coffee drinkers were not overwhelming. (Imagine a latte with powdered milk). I’m a tea drinker and you won’t find a teabag anywhere which is a surprise because they only cost pennies. You won’t find milk either, or cereal, or non-dairy creamer for your coffee. You can make your own oatmeal from a packet, sans milk. Orange and apple juices were offered as well as yogurt and bananas. Jimmy Dean plant-based “meat”, egg, and cheese croissants were available for microwave as were unlabeled mystery empanadas. The first morning there were small 2” danish, plain bagels, and white bread. No cream cheese for the bagels or butter, just margarine and grape jelly packs. Chocolate chip breakfast bars and chocolate chip croissants were also offered. If your typical breakfast is coffee or juice and something starchy or sweet, you’ll be at home here. The second morning they must have re-stocked the pantry because they now added tangerines, different types of bagels and bread, cream cheese, and butter. Also there are very few tables so expect to eat on a communal bench.I’d stay here again for a good night’s sleep, just with reduced expectations. Cost is average for the area and this level of quality.

From start to finish, the hotel is spot on. We wished we could have stayed longer. We needed somewhere near to Newport as we had the Catalina Flyer booked. The hotel was above and beyond our expectations. Extremely clean, updated rooms, beautiful bathrooms, massive television, great on the go breakfast, microwave, fridge, free speciality hot drinks always available in the reception. The room was very spacious and very well thought out. Best of all, the reception we received was very welcoming, the best we’ve had in the nearly 3 weeks we’ve been touring California. Thank you so much for an awesome stay x

Fully remodeled hotel where new management did not take any short cuts and made sure there is quality. The rooms smell and look great and best part zero bugs found. Love the enthusiasm of the front desk team to help. I would definitely suggest this for families visiting and looking for a clean, safe and affordable accommodation.
