The hotel offers a spacious room with a fold-out sofa, ideal for accommodating up to six guests. The living room setup was nice, perfect for family activities like ping pong and air hockey. However, there seemed to be a communication issue as we didn't get the memo about some arrangements.

The hotel had great facilities with private restrooms and showers. The narrow layout was a bit inconvenient, but the helpful security guards made up for it.

Our stay at the hotel was fantastic! The location is perfect, with private restrooms and showers available. The rooms were spacious and modern, and the staff was incredibly friendly. The dining experience offered typical products but lacked variety. The facilities were well-kept, and we enjoyed using the air hockey and ping pong tables with our kids.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. While the rooms were spacious and some had stoves, not all rooms had this feature, which was a bit inconvenient. On the positive side, there were entertainment options for the kids with ping pong and air hockey. The service was outstanding, particularly a shout out to the guy from Tennessee who set up a movie screening - very kind and patient. However, the location under the flight path was a downside, though the bay with the blow-up obstacle course was a fun activity.

The hotel offers a range of room types, from those with stoves to ones without, and some featuring fold-out sofas for extra sleeping space. It's convenient for moving trailers and motorhomes, making it accommodating for different travelers. However, the lack of consistency in room features could be improved.
Rooms

The rooms are spacious and well-equipped with amenities suitable for families. Some have stoves, while others do not, and those with fold-out sofas provide additional sleeping options for up to six guests.

The service received from the office was awesome, and the staff even went the extra mile to pick up a fire pit for us. However, there was an initial issue where a staff member seemed upset during a discussion and later failed to follow up as promised, leading to a slight inconvenience.
Location

The location is both a blessing and a drawback. Situated in Newport Beach, California, it offers private restrooms and showers but is unfortunately positioned directly under the flight path for John Wayne Airport.
Dining

The dining options are limited to small meals, which may not cater to all guests' preferences. However, considering the location, it could be suitable for quick and casual dining needs.
Facilities
7.0
The hotel boasts facilities that cater to various needs, such as a ping pong and air hockey area where kids can play. However, the overall facility's maintenance and cleanliness could be improved to enhance the guest experience.
