    One room smelled like it wasn't cleaned, reeked of cat piss and litterbox. Staff gave us some spray for the smell which helped. Both hair dryers didn't work. Not sure how many times you can paint over mold, but they are sure trying to break the record. Breakfast really shouldn't be called breakfast, we didn't even eat anything. Even though it was booked because of the free breakfast, we went out to a restaurant.

    I'm glad our 2 rooms were close together.

    No coffee makers in the room. They advertise free breakfast on booking.com but that is not accurate. The towels are really small, almost the size of hand towels. No tissues provided.

    The bed was comfortable and the room did have a fridge and microwave. That was the only thing I liked about the place.

    The key card wouldn't work properly. Had to go to the service desk twice and provided me with 2 key cards that didn't work. I figured it out, but it was a hassle. The bathroom towels seemed like they were dirty as they had stains. The bathtub also seemed dirty.

    Bed was very comfortable.

    The staff were 5 star. The floor was sticky, and dirty. Who knows when it had been mopped last. We had a small spill and went to clean it up and the towel was solid black. The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom was clean. My only complaint is the dirty floor.

    The bathroom door did not close right, it had to be leaned into and made a loud sound near the bottom. Only one hand towel, the shower was kind of cruddy. Overall not very clean.

    It is literally five minutes from the airport and just off the interstate, which is super convenient.

    It was clean for the most part just minor things to notice when it came to the bathroom and bedding. Also, this place advertises that hot breakfast is included and all they offer is coffee and cold pastries. Should definitely update their inclusions online for false advertising.

    Breakfast was a joke. It was a muffin and coffee. Had that been listed, we probably would have stayed somewhere else. That was a snack, not a breakfast. Also, you charge a deposit that then takes 3 to 5 business days to return the refund. I can understand someone staying multiple days but we were there less than 24 hours.

    I liked the bed and the spacious room even though the flooring seemed a little warped. Everything just seemed to be run down and needed a good deep clean/update.

    The room didn’t have good lighting, and it was difficult to turn the lights on and off. The pool and gym were out of order. The outlets were not reachable or in good working shape. The bed did not have sufficient covering or an extra blanket. The Wi-Fi was not secure. There were no helpful notices in the room to give useful information, such as Wi-Fi password, breakfast information, checkout time and procedure, etc.

    I liked that the location was right next to a good restaurant. I liked that the room was inexpensive. There was nothing else good worth mentioning.

    I was disappointed with the “free breakfast”. Unlike other La Quinta, they serve hot breakfast. This motel just serve low quality coffee, and pastry seems old. They do not serve water during breakfast unlike other La Quinta. I talked to the lobby personnel and told me they don’t serve breakfast like other La Quinta. You will get what you paid for. Not all same name hotel serve the same. Just check before you book. I should have book other La Quinta in the same city, not this Costs Mesa branch.

    I always book this hotel edpecislly yrsveling with our baby fur. This time we did not bring our baby fur.

    The room was sort of clean. The dresser was damaged and broken, the curtains had moth eaten holes. There was black mold around the grout and tile in the tub, and the bottom of the tub was black stained like dirt. We were not comfortable even showering there. The towels were old and ratty.

    The bed was comfortable but small. I had requested a queen. It was a full size.
