I had to stay somewhere while moving from OC, California to Vegas, and while my house was closing escrow. I decided on Staybridge, it was close by and they had a pet friendly room! They have complimentary breakfast: it is pretty stocked up, and really good. At the wee hours, they will have a breakfast to go bag ready for guests to grab and go to work. They also offered dinner!!! yes, dinner was included every night of my stay, the best part, drinks like beer and wine was also included. My room was large, nice, quiet and clean. It had a fridge and kitchen area. The service: the friendliest staff I have ever seen in a hotel. From Chloe at the front desk to the help at the breakfast bar, to the cleaning staff, I give them an A. I was pleasantly surprise on my first day, when I forgot to buy some water, I called the front desk and ask how much for the bottle on the table, in my room, and he responded it is free, courtesy of the hotel!!! it is usually $2.50 at most hotel, if not more. In case you are hungry at night, or did not get a chance to eat, or you checked in later than dinner time, there is a vending machine at the front desk with some snacks. There was no more room in the breakfast area one morning, I went outside and sat by the fountain. It was actually pretty relaxing. It was overlooking the barbecue area and the pool. So, I would definitely recommend this place to anyone travelling the area of the Spectrum, Mission Viejo and Foothill Ranch. a little out of the way from the 5Fwy, but close to the 241/261 toll road. A little pricey but well worth it, compare to what you get for your money, in the area.
