- - - WARNING, AVOID AT ALL COST - - -

Wish I'd read the reviews before booking. True this place was an economical choice, but there was a reason for that. On checking in, was told I had to pay a twenty dollar cash key deposit. Would've helped if this was made known beforehand so I wouldn't have had to walk almost 4 blocks looking for an ATM. Male clerk kept stressing no smoking and no guest allowed, this should've been made known when the reservation was made. Not upon arrival. Bathroom was moldy and bath towels were too small. Was in Santa Ana for a job interview, thus initially booked for only one night. Learning the interview was going to be longer than expected, I logged onto Hotels.com to book another night so I'd have someplace to keep my luggage while at the interview. To my surprise I was told I'd still have to check out at 11 and would have to come back at 3 pm, my interview was at 12 pm. I ask the lady at check-in if I can leave my luggage there since I'm going to a job interview and will be back at 3. She advised no they can't, so I end up walking around town in a business suit carrying a bunch of luggage looking crazy. Made it to the interview and explained why I was carrying around a bunch of luggage, luckily the interviewers understood. Bottom line, just pay the extra dollars and find someplace that isn't a burden and won't hit you with a bunch of unexpected stuff.

The owner was rude and pushy. He made demands and restrictions about our stay. He told us where we could and could not park each night within the very small parking lot. He was adamant that I could not invite a friend to visit in the room. He demanded I give him $20 cash as a security deposit for the room key card. There was also absolutely no toiletries provided except a small bar of hand soap. He was very belittling toward women and made our stay incredibly uncomfortable.

It may be cheap, but not worth it!

It was cheap true - but, towels were like hand towels. Sheet was not fitted so pulled off mattress as soon as you lifted the single blanket. Owner very surly, Made me leave at check in, go to ATM for $20 cash, for key deposit. And I killed a cockroach on the pillow next to me in middle of night. I’ll pay $10 more to go another location in the future!

Not a place to bring family

Strange. Interrogated on arrival (I’m a clean cut business man). Demanded $20 cash as deposit to give me plastic key card (what if I didn’t happen to have cash with me). Room had no clothes bar, had to hang suit on shower rod. Beds sheet too small, instantly pulled out from tuck and could not get it back. The AC did work well however.

I usually don't like to post negative about the property but I want to help others to save their money. This place is not in a good shape. Housekeeping didn't do a good job cleaning the bathroom. Its dirty, mold or mildew on edge of tub. No shampoo and conditioners. The bed is not comfortable. No hot kettle in the room.No vending machine to buy a drink. I would not go back again.

Please take my advice this place is not for decent people specially when traveling with you lovely family. I booked for 2 night hardly sleep for 3 hrs. and we left this place and my 2nd night in other better place I don't care for money back. Management very annoying very dirty room, shower and toilet. Only 2 queen beds, 2 old chairs tiny table and nothing else no even a telephone unit and night stands, sorry but this was my experience in Santa Travel Inn.
