This was our second stay at this location within 5 days. It was our stop before and after a 5 day cruise out of Long Beach, CA. This time, we stayed on the 6th floor facing the pool. The room was a good size and clean. The beds were comfortable. The lights still required a card in the slot by the door to function fully. The pool was very nice, clean, cool water, and towels were provided at the pool. Free parking was a plus! Good security personnel and devices. The TV had a lot of good channels and worked great. The beds were clean and very comfortable. We did not try the breakfast this time because we wanted to get up and leave early to beat the traffic. Being on the pool side, we did not notice the traffic noise as much this time. The staff is very friendly and kind! At 5 a.m., it was EASY onto the freeway and getting out of L.A. on a Saturday morning.

Really loved that I found this place that was super affordable for my work trip. It was close to everything I needed from food, the beach, and malls! I loved the modern look of the bathroom with the walk in shower. Staff were very nice and understanding that I needed my trash taken so I left my trash can outside my door while they were cleaning another room and they changed it without a problem. There was a desk with a lamp which I used to be able to do work on late at night which was great! Typically hotel blankets are thin and not the best BUT the blanket they had was something else because it held so much heat we actually got hot during the night. Thankfully we were able to control the AC without a problem

The bed was very comfortable, and clean. The room and bathroom was relatively clean for the US, the people cleaning it did a great job. The hotel is close to the highway and you're super fast at Disneyland or the Convention Center, without having to pay the prices close to that places. I liked that they had filtered hot water in the lobby, so you could get a proper tea at all time (I travel with my own organic tea and did not try their offer)

The manager and the reception staf were outstanding! The free breakfast each morning was great! All staff I encountered always seem to have a smile and nice hello when I saw them. I had to extend my stay by two nights and the manager and reception staff did it all with no stress on my part. Thank you for making my stay a great experience! Hotel was very clean and very updated rooms furniture etc.

This was just what we wanted, the room was a good size, clean and the beds were really comfortable. We stayed here to go to Disneyland, which was a little further out, but we got a great deal and was only a 15 minute drive. The breakfast was a real bonus, the selection was good and we were able to take some bagels out for a quick breakfast on the go. Would recommend
