Dana Point Marina Inn
Friendly staff, but property very outdated. My third stay and it seems more run down each time. Continental breakfast very basic. Parking available but at a small nightly fee. No maid service even for multi night stay.

Renaissance Newport Beach Hotel
This trip was for Darnell McDuffie. Not only was it a small room for the price he paid, there was no free WiFi. Staff was rude. Just an all out bad experience. Not to mention the tape on the plug. He called it a hyped up Motel 6.

Embassy Suites by Hilton Irvine Orange County Airport
We were appalled at the cost charged for parking. $37 a day is almost 1/4 of the room price we paid. We were very disappointed at this unexpected cost. Probably won’t choose this hotel again.
