"This looks like a rather old property that they’re trying to keep nice and they are. It seriously needs some help in the room. Like the bed was super comfy. The pillows were too. This charging port area was wiggly and things wouldn’t stay plugged in the TV. I never could figure that out thank God ..."

Irvine is a beautiful community. My hotel staff and Uber drivers were all kind, and professional and helpful. I would very much like to visit and get to experience all of Irvine and OC when we’re not having to deal with COVID-19 as a society.
