Categories

Cleanliness
7.6
Many guests repeatedly called the rooms 'clean' and well-maintained, but several reports mention mold in the shower, stained towels, dirty walls and holes in towels which lowers the score to a mixed-but-leaning-positive cleanliness impression.
Service
9
Staff and owner are frequently described as kind, warm and helpful; multiple guests praised the welcoming service, though one report noted a slow check-in phone distraction—overall strong service sentiment.
Location
9
Location is repeatedly praised as great and quiet, near downtown/Brea and close to restaurants and shops (guest specifically mentioned a great burger place next door and nearby coffee shop).
Room Quality
7.4
Rooms are described as modern and updated with nice furnishings, but issues such as squeaky beds, rough towels, holes in walls and occasional mold/dirty spots produce a mixed room-quality picture.
Amenities
6.8
Amenities are minimal: mini-fridge and microwave are appreciated, but many guests noted lack of basic hotel extras (no hair dryer, no coffee maker, no free ice) and noisy/dusty AC in some rooms.
Value for Money
9.2
Multiple guests called the hotel very affordable and a good value for the area, especially for short stays and event proximity; value sentiment is consistently strong.
Food and Beverage
7.2
No on-site dining noted; guests referenced nearby options (burger place, coffee shop). Presence of a microwave/fridge is a plus, but lack of hotel F&B lowers the rating to slightly above average.
Overall Experience
8.6
Overall stays are described as pleasant and practical — clean rooms, helpful staff and good location give a positive experience despite some maintenance and limited-amenity drawbacks.

Pros:

I left the Tucson Anaheim area for a cheaper hotel room on a Saturday night. This room is just over a hundred bucks and it was in a very nice neighborhood next to downtown Brea. For Saturday night I think it's a good value for the area.

Pros:

The accommodations are clean, and the staff is wonderful. The grounds are meticulously maintained. The rooms, furnishings, and overall building present a modern and appealing aesthetic. As a frequent guest due to my proximity to the location, I have consistently been impressed by the staff's warmth and hospitality. It truly feels like returning home when I am greeted by their friendly smiles.

On one occasion, a minor issue arose when my boyfriend's hair dye stained the towels and shower curtain. Upon being informed during my subsequent stay, I was quite embarrassed. However, the owner addressed the matter with remarkable understanding and kindness.

I highly recommend this establishment to everyone and often refer to it as The Regency Hotel, as it offers a superior experience compared to less reputable accommodations. Please consider staying here, and if you mention my name, Garrett, you may be eligible for a discount. I encourage you to make your reservation today.

Pros:

This is a bare bones room. None of the little extras you get at a "hotel". No free ice (get your quarters ready!), no hair dryer provided, etc. BUT, the room was exceptionally clean and provided just what we needed.

Pros:

It took 20 minutes for someone to come check me in as she was on her cell phone talking in the back. The beds are horrible. Pillows were so bad. Towels had big holes in them, no hair dryer, no iron. Will never stay here again.

Pros:

The staff was nice. Excellent price, but the interior is pretty basic and it had dirty walls and a there was hole in the bathroom wall. It was nice to have the mini fridge & microwave.

BREA Regency Stay
Pros:

Our stay was good. Very close to the event venue we had scheduled for that evening.

The room updates were good. It was pleasant for the one night we needed.

Both night stand had ports for wife and I to each charge our devices. No need to share ports.

Bed was comfortable, bedding was crisp and clean. Only two pillows but both were sufficiently plump for a good night's rest.

Shower was clean and water ran hot right away. The towels could have been fluffier/thicker/newer but they worked.

Lastly, the room had an excellent mini fridge, a microwave, but no coffee maker. The coffee shop was a block away. An easy walk after checkout.
