Santa Ana Hotels with Swimming Pools

We had the opportunity to stay at this location for the last part of July. We had a number of swimmers that were attending two separate swim meets and the hotel was beyond accommodating. Rooms were clean, swimmers were fed each morning (and that is a huge feat), and the staff bent over backwards to ensure the conference room was cleaned before each team meeting.

The rooms are spacious, had room to set up two work stations. House keeping was great and kept us supplied with coffee. The outdoor pool is heated and the Hot Tub was welcoming; even in 66 degree weather. Toast to Toast is a full service restaurant in the hotel, the Breakfast Buffet was fantastic. Management and staff were very friendly. The bar was the highlight, Lorrie was the best bartender!, keeping everything going in the evening. The manager made a great Bloody Mary for breakfast too.

We stayed in several BW plus properties near UC Irvine and this was the closest, most convenient, and most business like compared to other BW plus in the area. It is located in a hotel row, right beside the hampton inn, but with a more friendly rate. The room is not the largest but fits a family of 4 - two teens, comfortably. It does have all the BW plus amenities, including a full hot breakfast (one plate per person, keep your voucher, menu varies daily), although not self service but sufficient for your needs, plus it keeps the rate low. We actually stayed twice in this property, and the first time, I was going to quibble that the hotel has a BW plus label without a waffle machine for breakfast, but on our second stay, about a week later, the waffle machine was there (although not self-service). So I am grading 5 for location, cleaness, rate and convenience, and grading a 4 for room size and breakfast. All in all, I think this is the place to stay when in Irvine for a quick stay.

First of all, the environment is OK, relatively quiet, the nearby Plaza can be driven for a few minutes. Disadvantages, the facilities are old, even damaged, some rooms have a smell, accurately is damp moldy smell, concentrated in the living room, very affecting the accommodation experience. The SPA pool is very foamy and the disinfectant bleach tastes very strong and is not very good. In short, if you want affordable suite space, it is OK. But after all, it's a penny, don't expect too much from here. If you want a good suite, choose some high-end hotels.

No blanket No fresh towels Tv didn’t work No AC -Asked more than a handful of times only for them to tell us it was broken on the 5th night (mind you we stayed for 7) -Double charged and have yet to feel any sense of relief. After the 3rd time of bringing it up the front desk replied with “oh f*^*)” as if they had no recollection of the situation. Staff communication was terrible. On the site it says shuttle service to and from LAX. Spoke to front desk before our departure date, got both our check out time and shuttle time wrong- ended up paying for a $75 Uber to the airport. Advice; this place is surrounded by other hotels, take a look around

We were helped out by Shanice, immensely. We had been traveling cross country and were exhausted. Shanice was super friendly and accommodating going the extra mile to get us checked in and comfortable in a great room. I can’t say enough complimentary about her service!

paper towels always great place to stay at price is always right they may not have a restaurant anymore but they have a convenience store icoffee everything open 24 hours

The transportation is very convenient. There are restaurants nearby so you don’t need to take a taxi. It’s quiet and clean.

I was charged a $100 late check out fee when I did not even check out late! Beware of the fraudulent charges added for no reason!! Betty at the front desk is the rudest person that makes the company look bad!! I called from the room to ask why the were calling me at 10am and she said, “We did not call you!” I told her that why are they calling me at 10am when checkout is not till later and she said check out is at 12:30 and hung up on me. I called back and I told I asked why she hung up on me if I was asking her a question and her answer was that because she had answered my question and then she hung up. I left on time and when I leave the property we receive an alert for a $100 late charge fee. This extremely disappointing and even though I do business in the area my colleagues and myself can take our clients else where! I am looking forward to hearing back from the manager Sandy Warner, which is the general manager of the property, to get that charged disputed and refunded! Even after this bad experience i can say that the two pleasant and professional front desk representatives that helped, Priscilla and Klum did help alleviate a bit of the distress by helping me in pointing me in the right direction so that o can take this higher up to their general manager. I hope this all get resolved as it should because this is clearly not right!!

Great location, currently undergoing remodel. Parking lot is too small but a valet is provided for $18/day
