No issues with the property. I prepaid on expedia, who somehow did not pay the property, who wanted to cancel my reservation. I spent two hours on the phone to Expedia and had to get nasty to get them to finally straighten it all out.

I travel a lot for business

It was a short stay and I came in late. I was checked in very promptly and in my room inside 5 minutes. Everything was super clean and very comfortable. I was coming from another time zone so I was up at 3am and so pleased to be able to get a fresh cup of coffee in the lobby. The room was well laid out, quiet and just what I needed.

We stayed here for one night and had a great time enjoying OC. This hotel is about 30 minutes from world-class beaches. It is within walking distance of a very nice food court and theater. Breakfast was included, and the waffles were delicious. The beds were comfortable, & the facilities were clean. Please note that one blackout shade didn’t work, which was slightly irritating. However, all in all, this was a great deal for a clean room in a quiet & safe area of Orange County.

Disappointed! Arrived 2 hours before official check in time and was told rooms are still being cleaned and that they strictly adhere to the 3:00 check-in time. Friends arrived 15 minutes after we did and got there room. We arrived at 3 and it took 40 minutes to get our room. The room smelled (possibly of pets or vinegar or something to cover up the real smell). Curtains torn. Not a well maintained hotel. Very disappointing for a Hilton brand property.

Personally this was one of the worst hotels I have stayed in a while! When you first enter the lobby there was a overwhelming smell of marijuana. I Personally dont mind if someone uses it but its definitely not something i want to smell entering my hotel. We found the only elevator extremely slow witch was a inconvenience since the only working ice machine we found was on the main floor. But probably the worst part of our stay was when we had breakfast they had a creal dispenser and some people got a bowl of cereal. During them getting there cereal some spilt out all over the counter in front of the dispenser. My husband and I watched a hotel staff member who was using a rag to wipe down the counters and tables walk over with her bare hands push the cereal off the counter into her hands then she opened up the top of the cereal dispenser and dump it back on top. I was discussed! So if your planing on the breakfast beware its probably unsanitary. I would not recommend this particular hotel.
