We have friends up in Camarillo and sometimes meet halfway to hang out for the night. This La Quinta is just right location wise and the beds were nothing special, but we slept through the night. It is your basic hotel and the staff is extremely friendly! More

I have stayed at this property a number of times in recent years. It is a unique place stay, although it needs some renovations. It has been updated somewhat, but it needs some work especailly in the bathrooms. They are clean, but lots wear and tear. More

We stayed at the La Quinta because it is pet friendly. I had read some reviews of people complaining about the noise from the MetroLink and a night club, but neither of those was a problem at all, for us. We stayed in the part of the hotel that is converted lima bean and grain silos made of concrete. I... More

The rooms facing east are bigger and pretty cool, the west ones are more standard. Two of my team noticed a bad smell when they checked in. The second night it was really bad, so they finally found a large pile of dog poop just under the edge of the bed. The previous renter was a slob to allow this,... More

This is the first time that we stayed in the "old" section of the La Qunita. Only availability when you need two beds for four adults. Queen size beds are the preference and not double beds. The carpet was old/spotted and patched. The adjoining neighbors were not considerate of other guest, talking on the balcony at 3:00 AM. My son... More

Convenient, off the Interstate 5 and very close to the 405, is a Most unique inn in "Old Irvine," the LQ Spectrum was a turn of the century lima bean and grain silo. The "silo" rooms are carved out of the solid concrete and in the round of the actual original silo. The original processing bldg. still exists and contains... More

Do not let them put you in the back building. The room I am in sits twenty feet from the railroad tracks and it's like something out of a bad movie--the room shakes, the horn blares, and the trains come through every half an hour to forty-five minutes all night long. The bed was also old--the middle was really sunken... More

There are 2 buildings. One is the ''old'' LQ and it looks like it from outside. Check in was great, front desk helpful, professional. Went to the old building first, by mistake, and a loud barking dog in the end room, top floor, and an ash tray sitting on the exterior room window left a bad impression. So, ''newer'' building...

I visited a friend in Irvine and didn't want to pay a fortune; the price was better than most of the other motels in the area. The location was an easy access from I-5. Overall, it was a good experience. The staff was friendly & helpful with directions. The room was clean & spotless. The bed was comfy. Breakfast was... More
