The rooms are nasty/dirty  charges 10$ extra for parking per day 100$ deposit that still has not be credited back to my account. No wifi rooms stink just plain out nasty! Called they told me to email I’ve emailed and still nothing. DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY

Nasty motel

We have tried emailing, calling, messaging and visiting the front desk numerous times and got no resolution they wouldn't even let me speak to a manager or get their contact info. Our stay was a nightmare. It was glorified storage closet. On the 3rd  floor. The toilet didn't flush without taking the back of the toilet off, the tub did not drain and the temp adjuster was broken so you couldn't get a comfortable temperature. There was one foot of space around the bed to walk that's it, the bed was about 3 feet in the air, hard super hard bed, the key cards kept deactivating and walking up and down the steps multiple times to get into your room and across parking lots to get it fixed was less than ideal, the ants, oh the ants were everywhere in the room, we had to pay to park at the hotel and then there was no  parking spaces so you were constantly fighting to get one or just not having a space to park after paying. You had to park on the street wherever you could and then walk leaving your car blocks from the hotel. There was no wifi. No clean linens were given to us. When we checked in there was 2 wash clothes and 2 towels not even a hand towel this was for a 4 night stay for 2 people. Hand soap was provided. When you try calling the number on the website it doesn't take you to the hotel it takes you to an automated thing saying enter to win so even the phone number is a scam. When we complained or asked about another room the only thing they could say is another $67 per night for a different room or they couldn't do anything. The staff was nice but told us the only thing they could suggest was to call the number on the site to complain which as stated takes you to a scam. When I told the desk clerk the number didn't work he knew it didn't so why suggest it in the first place. The experience was a disaster. Being a holiday week we booked this room in advance and couldn't find anything else. So we were stuck it ruined our vacation. No one returned our calls or emails. Terrible experience never ever again! I was planning on visiting OC for Labor Day but after this experience I cancelled the trip. Ill spend my money at another beach that had hotels with better service.

Hotel from hell! Don't stay here!

Not clean. Checked out a day early cuz the hotel was nasty. Save yourself and don’t stay here. Pool was the only nice thing about this place. Wouldn’t recommend to anyone. There is no coffee machine or ice machine. No wifi for any of the guest. Just a dirt place.

Mouse dropping all over the bathroom. Mold in shower.

Possibly the worst experience I’ve ever had. The manager avoided speaking with me until I threatened to call the cops. The parking is not free. I’m not sure what kind of view I was supposed to get but it’s not worth paying $1 to stay here. This place should be condemned.

Worst motel in OC

Lights where out, switches didn't work.  Said free parking on web but changed $10.00 a day to park.  Unknown service fee of $45.00 for 3 days. When asked about it I was told that was for anything I may need. Lol. Low room starting fee, but then they add it on at the end.

Not worth it.

My brother and I reserved (separate reservations, separate credit cards) one night back in November for June 10th. It is the air show and this was a Christmas gift for our boys. I wrapped pictures of the hotel and the confirmation e-mail as a gift.
On Feb 7th I received an e-mail that my reservation was canceled. I called the number on the e-mail and I was told my credit card didn't go through. I asked to please re-book but now their system wouldn't allow them to do just one night. The system wanted two nights. There was no way the girl could override it. I asked to speak to a manager and there were none available and the hotel doesn't open until April. I asked her to look at my brother's reservation and that too was canceled for the same reason. There is no way both our credit cards had issues. Plus I have been using the same credit card for years. Never issues. I believe their computer system had issues and canceled it because we didn't have two nights even though back in November it let us book just one night with no issues. The girl who answered my call took my name and number and I e-mailed the hotel with no return call. I feel they need to honor our one night reservation since this was approved and I received a confirmation e-mail  back in November. I may have two very disappointed little boys.

Canceled our reservation

This place is a dump, it really sucks, shabby in-room construction,  mattress on plywood, no instructions for TV operation, 1 washcloth and 2 towels, no hand towels, no hangers or hooks. Pool is  dirty, shower nozzle and speaking broken. Way over priced. Basicly 80% empty and stuck us on the third floor. And the demand of a $100.00 cash deposit that is not advertised on any booking sites is a bit shady. No door looks on  room door other than main lock.  4 chairs in the room, no table.
7 bars of soap shoved in a plastic cup, toilet paper holder broken. Limited electrical out let's. Had to move microwave so it could be plugged in. No pen or paper. It is definitely a negative star accommodation !!! Don't

This hotel was so outdated and dirty! The tub was rust stained and the sink was just disgusting. We had a huge crack in our window that was very unsafe. The bed sits high off the ground not sure how older people or folks with knee or leg problems could even get in the bed. Housekeeping never came to get the trash we had to search for them to get clean towels daily and never offered any hand towels. The best thing about the hotel is the pool it was clean.  Will never stay there again!

You get what you pay for!

They have a mildew smell in the rooms, and mold on the bottom walls. Floors were not cleaned. Their was a leak in the room in the bathroom. Ants everywhere spider webs all over walls. Bed sheets and blankets were filthy and had dead flies. It smells like crap outside with garbage. Has no wifi. The night guy JEFF WAS A BIG HELP TO CLEAN THE SPIDERWEBS AND GIVE ALL NEW BED CHANGING. DO NOT TAKE YOUR KIDS OF FAMILY HERE. How ever HEATHER BLONDE HAIR FRONT DESK LADY is no help just a woman out to make money on a dirty motel.

TERRIBLE DO NOT STAY!

This place is really horrible! PLEASE do NOT book your stay here! I booked my stay on bookings.com for 3 nights. When i got to the room......the smoke detector kept beeping (like it was a low battery), the bed was not completely made, the shower was filthy, the water kept dripping AND there were BUGS. Not sure what kind of bugs, but i know i got bite a few times (in the hour i was in the room!!). I went to the desk and told the guy about all my issues and he offered to give me bug spray!! Thats it! How disgusting and unprofessional is that?? I collected my stuff, cancelled my reservation and went in search of another hotel. I was also told that I would not get ANY refund. My entire 3 night stay was billed to my credit card!! I understand if they bill for 1 night......but all 3 nights....when i only stayed an hour?? Thats awful and unacceptable!! My dad called the hotel and spoke to a manager the next day. They said they would call me within 24 hours. Its been 5 days and no one has reached out to me yet. Thats why i chose to do this review. For EVERYONE to know how dirty, filthy, disgusting, awful this place is with the staff and manager not having a care in the world about there customers!
PLEASE DO NOT STAY HERE. Trust me!!
