- “The location is unbeatable. You're literally connected to the back entrance of the convention center. It doesn't get easier than that.” On camera30:10

- “The Garden Grove one is clean and safe and about a one mile walk to the parks.” 17
- “None of us felt the happy hour and breakfast were anything to write home about. I remember the breakfast being especially bad (cold food, ran out of food?).” 1
- “Also, Monterey Bay CA. Also, no matter where now the breakfast buffet doesn't stand out and most manager happy hours are an effort to clear out whatever bottom rack 1/2 pony keg they have left over, and a half hearted snack option.” 12
- “They're going to add 20% tips on top. Whether you're dining in or taking it to go. It is a full service hotel, so I won't complain, but I would rather spend my dining credits at the market for snacks, ice cream, or pastry rather than using it at the restaurant. You're basically giving it away for tips.” On camera32:51
- “Guests find the hotel offers fast room service, adding convenience to their stay.” 16
- “2. The breakfast is the typical cheap institutional type food, substandard not restaurant quality and complementary snacks are gold fish crackers or tortilla chips and raw broccoli and carrots.” 17

- “Bring a portable fan since room heating is broken and air conditioning is locked at 71 degrees.” 16
- “I did and still like the layout for young families with parents on one area kids in the other with a pullout bed/tv setup for them in the evening.” 12
- “No idea whats going on here. Incompetence? Something nefarious? Who knows, but that's enough for me. I'm not sleeping or leaving my luggage in a room that clearly isn't secure.” 14
- “The furniture was worn badly.” 1
- “In the 1990s, I had 2 little girls & that living room was handy for putting up their cribs or later putting them in the sofa bed. No matter if it was business or family travel, the breakfast was always a plus.” 12

- “Use the hotel app to complete check-in remotely, but expect the process can take up to 40 minutes.” 16
- “I will say, the front desk manager was very apologetic, zeroed out my stay, and gave me points without asking, so props to her.” 14
- “In the old days, the evening receptions at Embassy Suites, Homewood Suites, and Staybridge Suites were really nice. After 2020, most of the hotels switched to prepackaged or limited snacks. They often tend to run out of snacks and reduce the time as well.” 12
