First the good: The lobby area was clean and bright and the staff was friendly. Quick to check you in. The breakfast was decent with bulk Costco type food items along with a decent waffle maker. Location was pretty good, didn't look like a bad neighborhood. They offer free wifi and free shuttle service to Knotts Berry Farm and Disneyland,... More

Online, this "inn" sits with a sun-shiny backdrop, all a'glow and inviting enough to inspire a brief stay. Unfamiliar with the "OC", I thought to myself, "Well, it's near Knott's and Disney. My four-year-old turns five in several days, and there will probably be a shuttle. It'll be perfect!" Even a brief tour of the exterior passed the initial eye-inspection.... More

I made the reservation online, traveled to the hotel and should have found another place to stay when I walked into a lobby desk clerk that spoke very little English. Our room was dirty, the breakfast was terrible, the noise level in the room was loud as the room was on an alley with lots of traffic. I complained the... More

If you are staying in the area and want to stay in an affordable place, this is it. If you want room service and a nice relaxing vacation in an upscale place, don't come. I have been here five days. I am in the double bed efficiency. I am disappointed because I have a check in paper from priceline that... More

We reserved this hotel as a package through Southwest Vacations.com. Don't believe ANY of the positive reviews or the pictures online it's all a big LIE! Positive reviews must be family or staff writing them. This hotel is awful. It smells bad, it is filthy dirty, and unsafe!!! We had to make other arrangements last minute after we arrived here...

Needed a cheap room in Buena Park to attend a funeral. I took my 19 year old daughter and we stayed 3 nights in room 108. This was a smoking room which we didn't want but surprisingly it didn't smell very smoky. I am kind of a germaphobe so the sticky alarm clock was sort of gross but really, the... More

For the price,and Ive stayed at places cross country is well worth it. The room is 2-3x the size of... More
