The hotel is about 50 yards from the freeway, so the traffic noise is terrible. If you cannot be guaranteed a room away from the freeway, book elsewhere. Also, it shares a parking lot with Hooters, so the Saturday night crowd is a little iffy. Also, there is no computer with a printer so you cannot print out boarding passes.... more

We generally rely on the La Quinta brand when traveling by car. This La Quinta is run down and in generally poor condition. The first room we were offered reeked of smoke. We were given a second room, but after moving in, found that the free wired Internet in the room didn't work. Two hours of phone calls, assistance from... more

No frills, just a clean room and nice staff. Our first room reeked of cigarette smoke and they were very accomodating in finding us another. Close to the freeway( real close!) and John Wayne airport as well as shopping. more

My wife and I spent three nights here for business and visiting relatives. The general location was great and the room was nice, but the freeway noise was like trying to sleep in the middle of the Indianapolis 500. We used pillows to try to muffle the noise coming through the bottom of the door. It helped a little., but... more

My young son and I wanted a special "Mommy & Me" getaway close to our favorite attractions. We're on a budget so we checked into this La Quinta (the San Diego Location is ok, so I anticipated a similar experience in Costa Mesa. WRONG!!!!! The 1st room was dirty but we kept our socks on and "sucked up" our disgust.... more

We pulled off after a long day of driving because the giant sign along the freeway said $49 a night! The motel is inconveniently located in an industrial park area and next to a crowded Hooters, which might appeal to some. We had a problem with the fact that we had to wait 45 minutes for them to clean a... more

I booked this hotel for $50.00/night on Hotwire. I was very concerned after finding out the location is right beside the 405 freeway. Exterior noise is loud but I found the room to be clean and not too noisy. We slept with the air conditioner on anyway and that helped drown out most traffic noise at night. The beds were... more

great location, terrible hotel. It seemed that people actually lived there. elevators had graffitti all over, people were washing bags and bags of clothes. Only one ice machine worked. I had to go outside the back door to get the person working at the desk, he was detailing his car. Felt completely unsafe there. Tried to change hotels, but would... more

We chose this La Quinta based on reviews here at Trip Advisor, it's proximity to the Galaxy Theater and because we get customer rewards from La Quinta. The rate for a Friday was $70. Two staff members greeted us when we arrived and were very friendly and helpful with recommendations for dinner. They also pointed out a small rack that... more

I felt the room was neat and clean. It was too cold to use the pool. Breakfast was individual packages of yogurt, Jimmy Dean Sausage biscuits, bagels, muffins, juice and milk; 3 choices of bulk cold cereal, coffee, apples, micro-oatmeal- microwave and toaster. We could not get the high speed internet to work in the room which was an inconvenience;... more
