Orribile
Pros:

Niente

Cons:

Tutto vecchio , di almeno 30 anni fa . Muffa nelle docce , letti vecchi , odore di chiuso e di vecchio . Mobili vecchissimi e cucina credo del 1980 . Non ho nemmeno aperto il frigorifero perché non volevo vedere cosa ci fosse dentro . Sicuramente non tornerò mai più .

HORRIBLE
Cons:

Manager would NOT help us get into our room and was extremely rude. Young short Asian girl who told me she was the manager when I asked to speak with one, she was aware we drove all the way from Arizona and it was my birthday. It ruined our entire trip and we had no where to stay as it was a Friday night and late and everything was sold out. This hotel and this manager made us have a horrible experience and we will NOT be returning. Also you need to change how you expect forms of payment.. absolutely bullshit no cash and no form of card???? How the hell do you even stay here!!!

It was great that you guys had rooms available and not sold out
Pros:

I liked that there was on-site security patrolling the property. I like that the elevator worked with no issues and how the room key card gives you access to the gym and laundry room

Cons:

I didn’t like how ran down the rugs looked all around the building. And how my room was dirty, specifically the bedsheets, pillows, and floor.

Quick stay
Pros:

The bed was comfortable and the hotel in a convenient location to quick places to grab a bite or breakfast.

Cons:

Hotel property seemed dated. I didn't get a good warm and fuzzy vibe from the place as things seemed a bit worn upon careful inspection. There was chipped paint in bottom corners of bathroom and the cabinet looked like it was peeling in spots. The on/off light switches were old and tile floors unmatching in the bathroom where they had been repaired and a picture frame hanging on the wall with just brown cardboard inside? For staying 1 night it was a very good value as the place was clean but I didn't want to spend much time in the room. Just to sleep 1 night and then go home. The bed was comfy.

Although there is room for improvement for the room, the attentive staff makes you feel at home.
Pros:

Sonesta Simply Suites Orange County Airport has a decent location and value, but is a little bit run down. Fortunately, the staff is very welcoming and works hard to make the stay enjoyable. We like the full kitchen, the spacious room, and the large desk. The laundry facility and the gym were also very appreciated.

Cons:

The fan in our bathroom didn't work, but the hotel replaced it the same day we notified them. The room is generally clean, but the carpet is a bit old and musty. They might need to do deep cleaning more regularly - especially since many guests seem to bring pets to the hotel.

This was our "home" for about two and a half months.
Pros:

the location and the fact that they are pet friendly is what made this Sonesta right for us,

Cons:

i did not like paying to park. the pet fees are a bit pricey. this was not a vacation for us. we stayed here after losing our home.

Pros:

Check in is friendly and accommodating however they do lack a slight amount of urgency. At one point while being helped with check in I was told to wait in the small lobby area so they could help another guest. Luckily I didn’t have to wait long and was able to get a room quickly after that. The room was clean and everything looked up to standard. Only issue was a really bad smell. I opened the windows and ran the AC, which I will say helped a lot and eventually the odor was rather minimal. The area just a few minutes away is nice but if you go in the other direction there isn’t much. If you are looking for a cheap and convenient stay this place may be for you. It’s nothing special but it can work if you aren’t too picky.
