Great, renovated hotel. Friendly and helpfull staff. I felt safe in a not so great area of Santa Ana. They have security and you need a room key to access literally anything on the property, even the lobby bathrooms, which was nice. The complimentary breakfast was great, lots to choose from and good tasting. Only thing my kids complained about was no jacuzzi and I could have used some stronger coffee ;) But those are more preferences than complaints.. I’d stay here again if we ever had the need.
