The staff at the property were really nicer and made sure I had everything I needed. The property was big, spacious and really clean, small things such as how the towel was folded looked very professional.

Peaceful, safe and calm neighborhood. As we stayed with the owner's family, we could share a lot, and it was a wonderful memory to be with them. Tho is also a mother of teenagers, so I really enjoyed talking with her as a mother. They kindly lend us some tools and give us something nice. Thanks to their kindness, we could overcome some inconveniences. She taught us Japanese stores in their neighborhood. As I really wanted to experience real local lives in the US, it was perfect for me and I could learn a lot. If we had been staying at a hotel, we wouldn't never have had such a special friendship and comfort. As we get used to cook in our own country and we wanted to follow healthy diet and save money, it was nice for us to cook at their house instead of going to restaurants so often. One of us could play the piano freely at the house, which was also great.

The location and staff. We moved at of California, but when we come back, we found it more economical to utilize short term housing and this place makes a great alternative to renting. We all know that if you rent for even 6 months, you still have to surrender a moths rent worth of a deposit, and live the the smell, and the headache of a freshly painted apartment, with none other that the value brand at Lowe's. Oh I know a lot of people that are trying to get out of their leases and go with temporary housing. People have also asked me "why don't I do Airbnb", when we did for a month, out of 31 days, 3 days consisted of no water. There was also no heater and they had a major pest problem at times. We were so pleased to move out of there and into the Travel Lodge here in Costa Mesa The staff is very nice, caring and make checking in and extending easy! They are probably the best staff in the area, they are very helpful and really, we want to have pizzas deliver to them some night for being so awesome. We also want to always tip and give the cleaning staff hostess cupcakes for going above and beyond when they clean. This place literally blow alway extend stay America and Comfort inn and suites COMBINED! This hotel and it's staff truly values your business, and they show that by setting a new standard in service!
