    Had a pleasant time overall. the room was quite clean and convenient for visiting nearby attractions. However, the noise levels from outside were distracting, and we encountered some housekeeping issues that needed addressing. Staff was friendly, but there’s room for improvement on service delivery.

    Family with children Need to be cautious

    We stayed for a week, the kids liked the pool which was clean and kept well. I had a situation where the staff helped me with extra towels and made me feel understood when I needed support for keeping the room tidy for the kids.

    It wasn’t inexpensive, but the stay was overall acceptable.

    Comfortable beds for weary travelers

    The comfy beds felt like clouds, allowing us to recharge after our long journey. The staff greeted us with warm smiles throughout our stay.

    Unfortunately, the hallway noise was a little disruptive at night as other guests were coming and going, impacting our sleep.

    Just an optimal selection for shopping in Santa Ana with all in all brilliant value for money. The room was nice, clean, and smelled good. Avoid the sliding glass door. it’s tough to handle!

    Great stay near Disney!

    This place was super comfy and clean. Loved how close it was to Disneyland, just a short drive! The staff was really nice and the blackout curtains were a plus for some extra z's. Breakfast had pancakes and eggs, but as a vegan, I kinda wished for more options. All in all, solid stay!

    clean room
    comfortable beds
    decent breakfast
    elevator issue
    unresponsive staff
    limited towels

    I stayed at the Holiday Inn Express for a couple of nights and had a mostly decent experience. The room I had was clean, and the beds felt comfortable, which made for good sleep after long days. I appreciated the variety of options for breakfast. the pastries tasted fresh, and the coffee had a good flavor. However, I did encounter issues. One of the elevators was out of order during my stay, making it a bit inconvenient when heading to and from my room. Also, I noticed some amenities in the bathroom were lacking, like there weren't enough towels for the three of us. The check-in process could’ve been smoother. the front desk staff seemed a bit unresponsive at times. Despite these hiccups, the location worked well since it was close to family I was visiting. I might consider staying here again if the issues are addressed.

    questionable location
    limited parking

    Big ups for the breakfast spread—grabbed some classic Charlie's Best Burgers nearby that hit the spot after a long day exploring! The comfy beds were perfect for crashing after our adventures, and the staff was super helpful.

    The hotel is in a sketchy area, we even saw a homeless guy getting escorted out while checking in. Also, the parking situation could use a revamp with limited spaces and some taken up by neighboring businesses. Still, the whole vibe managed to shine through!

    The hotel provided a clean and modern room, which was perfect for my stay. I appreciated the comfortable beds that made it easy to get a good night's sleep. The breakfast options were decent but could use a few more items. The staff was efficient and helpful whenever needed, facilitating an easy check-in and check-out process. However, the location felt a bit sketchy at times, and the noise from the street was noticeable even with the door closed.

    The staff was generally friendly, but the

    breakfast experience left much to be desired due to under-staffing and limited food options. The bed was comfortable, and the room was clean, but I was disappointed that the pancake machines never worked during our stay.

    I loved being just a short stroll away from Santiago Park Nature, where I could unwind and take in the natural landscape after a day of exploring, and the staff's friendliness made my stay all the more pleasant as they greeted me with smiles each morning during my stay.
