Stayed here for OC marathon. Motel is walking distance to fairgrounds. Adjacent to freeway & associated noise. Room was clean, appliances in working order. Bring your own shampoo & conditioner. No coffee maker but 1 block from Starbucks.

In town for a TNA wrestling event , check in and stay went smoothly just wish i could have had an earlier check-in time ..i know it's the standard though. For the price and quality of the room night a bad deal at all will say second floor balcony floor is need of renovation appears to have recently suffered some noticeable water damage.
