“Good, with walking distance to Irvine Market and other restaurants, free coffee”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 7, 2013

I stayed here last year for a work related training and the amenities were good.

It was very convenient and more affordable to get my beer and wine from the Irvine Market liquor store (2540 Main St) that was walking distance from the hotel. I bought a cupcake merlot wine for $8.49 and a 6 pack of shocktop beer for $8.99. So you can compare this to the beer/wine prices at hotel.

I asked the hotel for a corkscrew and they had that for me.

All and all this hotel was close to my training and the Irvine Market walking distance away made my 2 night stay pleasant. Next to the Irvine Market is a few cafes to eat at too. The front-desk was nice too.

Room Tip: Ask for a corner room.

“Good but not great”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed January 24, 2013 via mobile

Checked in recently and was pleased with the renovations, clean lobby, nice pool, rooms were decent (little loud with foot traffic above). I give it an average because when I checked in they gave me a key to a room on the 4th floor with a nice view, however, there were still people I'm this room! I did I a double take and opened the room again and was in some what shock. Went down to the front desk and informed them of the situation, they apologized and gave me a room on the 2nd floor but when i opened the blinds there were two huge trees as my view- Coming from NY in the winter, i just wanted a little SoCal sunshine and had originally requested a room with a view so I asked if they could move me to a a room comparable to the initial room and was told someone would be right up to give me new keys. Waited about 25 mins, finally tracked down an employee and he put me in a room with a poolside view. The front desk sent up a bottle water and a Naked fruit drink. What saved this from being a disaster was that they also gave me in a free beer..It's good for business trips but ill probably venture else where next time I'm in this area.

“Surprisingly comfortable”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 18, 2013

Even though this and the other hotels in the area appeared to be sold out, I was able to get a reservation becuase of the Marriotts Rewards program. The price was very good and the location was convenient to SNA airport, but not too close to be noisy. The lobby has been updated with a modern design and has a good cafe for breakfast and light dinner. Very comfortable to hang out in as is the fire pit area in the courtyard.
Rooms were comfortable, but the bathroom would be small for more than one person.

Room Tip: Ground floor rooms open on to the inner courtyard and pool.

“A reasonable choice for a weekend at for this neighborhood”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed January 15, 2013

We stayed here over a weekend night and it was very good for the purpose of our visit. A nice lobby and a nice bar... Breakfast was obviously for a fee only, free coffee in the lobby was provided ONLY for FEW hours (most of the time there was no free coffee in the lobby). Front desk receptionist was kind. Room space was very good, bed, aircondition and free WiFi were very good.

We reached the hotel by a car, did not fly in/out SNA. We picked this Courtyard hotel over the nearby SpringHill's because of a lower weekend rate.

On previous visits to this neighborhood, I wrote two very good reviews about the nearbt SpringHill hotel, however since then... the hotel raised its weekend rate.

Room Tip: A low rate for a weekend stay.

“Great price, so so experience”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed January 14, 2013

I stayed here after a late arriving flight at John Wayne-the Marriott was super expensive so chose this option, whose price point was reasonable.

I had to wait to check in as the desk clerk found an envelope for a guy (not a guest) picking up an envelope, going through seeing his ID and verifying info, etc. It was late and I found this not to be the greatest example of customer service.

Room was clean, but not as spacious as another courtyard I had stayed at several days before. In am had to wait for server at bistro about 5 minutes or so to show up; I don't find lax service such as what has mentioned to be out of the ordinary for Orange County, but this seemed to be systemic with every experience I had in the hotel; no one in too big of a hurry to help.

The price point is great, but it's not the closest to John Wayne, and also not the easiest to find or get to at night; located in what appears to be a combo business/condo development, you actually have to access through a point on Jamborree or down from the actual street address on Main. Probably won't be back.
