Hotel itself and customer service

I was very disappointed with this hotel. I received a call same day I was suppose to check in saying the pipeline was not functioning and there will be no water supply within 24 hours. He continues to say you can stay but no water supply to toiletries or cancel my reservation with no charge. He also said there is plenty of others hotel you can stay in around the area. (1) I was irritated because I was driving far away from Northern California to Santa Ana,(2) cancel my reservation last minute, and (3) I had to pull over to look for a hotel last minute. Delay my travelling drive. He also stated you need to contact Expedia or whomever you booked your hotel with. I should not have to do anything when the hotel itself did me wrong.

The property location was easy to navigate to and from when commuting around the area. There is shopping and restaurants about 10 minutes down the road. The room was huge and offered more than enough space for our family of 3. The fridge and freezer was amazing for cold drinks, snacks, and even ice cream! The area was quiet and nice to just lounge in the courtyard, on the balcony, or by the pool.
The beds in the room were comfy and spacious

All was great except breakfast starts at 7:00am. Not good for us that have to be out to tournaments at 7:00am and must leave the hotel at 6:30 am. Many times, we don't know what time our game starts until the night before.

The room was dusty, and the old carpet had a strong, unpleasant odor. Since it was only a two-night stay, I didn’t request a room change. However, for a longer stay, this environment could pose health risks, especially for individuals with respiratory issues or weakened immune systems. The curtains were also dirty and noticeably aged. The bed sheets had visible stains, which was disappointing. However, when I asked the housekeeping staff to replace them, they responded promptly and changed them promptly.

Hospitality was great. Can’t complain because everything went well for me. Cleanliness was good, always provided good guest service experience. Call the front desk for extra towel and I was in reach within 2 mins. Very quick and the breakfast was decent. The lady in the kitchen always worked so hard which I appreciate. Very friendly staff. Laundry on site and was able to use it but it’s pretty pricey. $5 a wash and $5 to dry. Imagine doing 2 loads and you’re already spending $20 max. The machine never gave me the correct change. Put in $10 and it spit out only $8 in quarters missing $2. Can’t expect much here.

Our bed was lumpy. Pillows very good. The room smelled bad. Bathtub very uncomfortable. Maid service never happened once while we were there for 4 days. The room was spacious. Couch smelled bad as well. Hair dryer was broken.

Not sure how this place got such good ratings. I know you get what you pay for but with the rating I thought maybe, I was wrong. Food: meh, everyday was the same breakfast - scrambled eggs, hash browns, sausage, pancakes, and cereal. No fruit, no variation. Hash browns were old. Bed comfort: hard and lumpy TVs: didn’t work had to have serviced Bathroom: wall paper was peeling, gunk on back of door that looked like blood, bathroom door didn’t latch, was not very clean Living area: okay, furniture was warm and dated Property: leaking a/c units, dirty towels in hall area, balcony view was electric plant, loud traffic.
