The room above noise and walking could be heard every step in the middle of the night stomping and woke us and kept us awake when we had to work the next day!

Positives: Very nice bed, comfortable mattress and down pillows.

Negatives: People in room above us woke us up for 1 hour at 1pm stomping around and could hear every step.

Everything in the hotel was good except our room. Possibly, if we had not been placed in a pet room, we may have had a better experience. We had the room for three days and had intended to stay in the room during the day at times so our grandchild could rest. However, because of the pet odor and my allergies, we only stayed there at night. Good place for kids if you were not in a pet room.

Positives: The buffet breakfast was excellent and a real hit with with kids.

Negatives: The pet odor and chewed furniture and carpet in our room.

Located in "the city", you do need a car to get around. Traffic is terrible and expect to drive over 30 minutes to the beach. It's located about 6 miles from UC Irvine. I was weary about arriving here because our prior experience with La Quinta (Berkeley) was so poor. Corporate is useless in answering your requests (if they do at all). I called a couple of times and finally got some of my requests (so I thought). Upon check-in, find that they're totally oversold and sending people to Motel 6, etc. The only one working staff, bless her heart, she told me they ignored her notes and gave away our room. I was patient and nice to her, and in turn she did everything w/in her power to get us a room (see what happens when you're nice to people). She bumped us up to a King size studio with sofa bed pull out (room had fridge/microwave/sink are). Only bad thing was 1st floor, so you could hear stomping/walking above us. But she put us facing the back so at least no other noise could be heard (hotel is located near airport/freeway). Great (!) perks which provide for a cost saving vacation. Therefore, if you're a practical type of frugal traveler, who wants "the comforts of home" (which we are) then you'll really appreciate these amenities: Free parking, Free microwave & mini-fridge in their rooms. Free breakfast every morning until 9am. They provide waffle (which they have the lady making for you, which is nice, more sanitary), juice, coffee, tea, eggs, sausage, toast/bagels, dry cereals, apples & bananas. Wish they would've done it 'till 9:30 am. Two computers/1 printer for (free) guest use in the lobby and I think they said there's free wireless in your room as well. At this particular La Quinta location, we got very good service. Their AC unit stays on continuously (I hate the "auto" that goes on/off at night.

Positives: Free parking, breakfast, micro/fridge in room, and computer.

Negatives: Location, lots of kids, housekeeping/fitness center not the best.

I would definitely stay there again. Room was clean and the bed was comfortable. The woman who worked the continental breakfast was so nice. She waited on us and made us fresh, hot waffles for breakfast. Usually, continental breakfasts are very limited.

Positives: Room was very clean, bed was comfortable, and continental breakfast included homemade waffles.

Negatives: If you did not have a car, hotel is not near stores but there was a convenience store nearby.

Hotel is well run and has perfect access right off the freeway. We liked it and will be back. Price quoted, which we did not negotiate, was excellent for a hotel of this quality.

Positives: Helpful desk. Furnishings very good for this class of hotel.

Negatives: Really nothing except maybe limited eating choices in the area.

Reviewer: Not provided on Fri 11 Apr 2008 rated 9 out of 10.

The hotel was close to the airport and my travel destination. The room was clean. There was WiFi internet for free and HBO. There was no iron in the closest but an ironing board, which is bizarre. There was also no mini shampoo or conditioner bottles which seemed strange because I have also had those in every hotel I've been in regardless of price.

Positives: Good price.

Negatives: No iron in my room.

Reviewer: Not provided on Sat 20 Oct 2007 rated 10 out of 10.

Otherwise I was very pleased. Staff was helpful! Very clean / very nice room! Nice lights out curtains. By far better than one of the 3.5 star hotel I stayed at in San Jose. This should be a 3.5 rating hotel. Who rates them anyway?

Positives: Quiet, nice, clean room! Semi fast internet service.

Negatives: Light from above microwave/sink was out.

Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 23 Jul 2007 rated 2 out of 10.

There was no manager to speak with, no newspaper, no ice machine in any working order on any floor, and I was very disappointed to not be heard or my issues get resolved.

Positives: Staff was very friendly.

Negatives: False advertisement, the beds were not king & double they were queen & single.

Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 03 Apr 2006 rated 10 out of 10.

We would stay here anytime - it is an excellent value, wonderful clean rooms and great atmosphere. The complimentary breakfast was the best I've ever seen. It was all we hoped it would be.

Positives: The staff, room, breakfast, the cleanliness of the premises - loved everything about it.

Negatives: Nothing - it was wonderful

A little hidden gem in OC. Great location on hotel circle in Santa Anna (55 & Dyer). Clean and pleasant with a polite staff. It is a no frills hotel, but you get a free cooked to order breakfast and a free drinks happy hour every night. Great pool and hot tub with a small work-out room. Shuttle to airport. Limited cable with 3 HBO stations. Nice sleeper couch, comphy chair, fridge and table in room. Nice landscaping and blooming flowers year round. Plenty of parking. For over 6 years, I have stayed there when I go to OC.

Positives: Great hotel for a moderate rate. Great location off of the 55 and close to OCJW airport.

Negatives: No room service
