Super Lage in Costa Mesa und gutes Preis/leistungsverhältnis
Pros:

Die rückwärtige Lage mit Blick auf einen kleinen Pool und einem großen Park, mit privatem Balkon und die Möglichkeit, mit offener Balkontür zu schlafen hat mir sehr gut gefallen. Die Kaffeemaschine, Kühlschrank und Wasserflaschen im Zimmer sind ein Segen. Man kann sich dort aufhalten. Das Hotel hat ein sehr schönes Ambiente: gepflegt und relaxed. Im Atrium ein sehr schönen Rückzugsraum mit Polstermöbeln und Begrünung. Die Lage des Hotels ist top: ruhig und doch nur wenige Meter zu Fuß bis zum OC Museum of Art, Segerstrom Center of the Arts. Alles sehr gepflegt und sichere Umgebung. Das Restaurant und bar im Silver Trumpet ist auch für Alleinreisende angenehm.
Im OC Museum of Art gilt freier Eintritt- es gibt ein sehr schönes Bistro dort mit guter Auswahl und sehr moderaten Preisen. Der Museumsshop ist leider nicht mehr dort.

Cons:

Insgesamt ist das parken in allen Hotels zu teuer - leider eine Unsitte, denn ÖPNV kann man bekanntlich vergessen: ohne Auto geht in Orange County gar nichts. 40 Dollar pro Tag ist ziemlich happig. Ich konnte das Hotel allerdings auf 22 Euro herunterhandeln, da ein Parkhaus in der Nähe nur 20 Dollar pro Tag kostet. Valet Parken brauche ich nicht. Ist schließlich auch keine Pflicht. Das andere Parkhaus ist nur ca 200 m vom Hotel entfernt - man hat also auch eine Alternative. Man kann immer nachverhandeln: meistens gehen die Hotels darauf auch ein. Letztlich kann man 22 Dollar pro Tag auch akzeptieren.

Recommended!
Pros:

I recommend the Avenue of the Arts Costa Mesa hotel. I was only there for a very short stay, but I would gladly return.

Pros:
Nice rooms with wood floors instead of carpeting;
A complimentary shuttle that operates within 5 miles of the hotel (including SNA airport);
Helpful staff;
Quick, good food from room service;
A mini fridge/mini bar;
Good sleep environment - pretty quiet and dark, and comfortable bed;
Oliva Farmacia toiletries;
Close to the local airport, across the street from the Orange County Museum of art, easy walk to Segerstrom Center for the Arts, South Coast Repertory Theater, and South Coast Plaza (shopping mall with lots of dining options); and
Nice grounds

Cons:
The decor was interesting, but not very cohesive or attractive in my opinion;
In-room coffee was Keurig (not tasty or environmentally friendly);
You can reserve the shuttle to return to the airport, but not for your arrival. You need to call when you arrive and if it's available, it will pick you up on the ground level in the hotel shuttle pick up area.

Suggestions:
Like most hotels, they provide individual plastic water bottles. It feels very wasteful. I'd much prefer that they have filtered-water filling stations where I could use my refillable bottle or a glass.

The name of the hotel is weirdly long.

Best in Costa Mesa
Pros:

We stay in OC about 3 times a year to visit family. We have been looking for a clean, comfortable hotel with friendly efficient staff and we finally found it at Avenue of the Arts.
Our room was spacious, well appointed, and very clean and inviting. Bottled water was complimentary, and the linens and towels were soft and fluffy. Can't say enough about the staff, who over the course of 5 days were so welcoming and helpful. In particular, Jose, our valet this morning was so friendly and got us safely to the airport in about 5 minutes. These people have been trained to deliver hospitality the way it should be. Cudos to all the staff for making our stay so enjoyable.
Location is lovely. The property sits on a small lake with a walking path around it if you feel like a stroll. There are several nice restaurants and a Starbucks nearby.

Excellent Service and a Great Boutique Option in Costa Mesa
Pros:

I am a frequent traveler and a Marriott Titanium Elite member, so I base my hotel reviews on both brand standards and my personal experiences.

I stayed two nights at this Tribute Portfolio hotel in Costa Mesa and had a very positive experience. I had heard good things about the property beforehand and decided to give it a try.

From the moment I arrived, the service stood out. I was warmly recognized as a Titanium Elite member and received an upgrade to a one-bedroom suite, which was a very nice surprise. The suite provided a comfortable and well-designed space that worked well for both relaxing and getting some work done.

Breakfast was provided via vouchers and served in the restaurant. There was no buffet; instead, it was a full-service, menu-based experience. The quality of the food was excellent, and the service was equally strong. I genuinely enjoyed breakfast each morning.

The location is another strength of this property. There are numerous restaurants and coffee shops nearby, making it easy to walk out and find a variety of dining options. Parking was also convenient, which made coming and going simple.

Overall, this was an excellent stay with strong service, great elite recognition, and a more personalized, boutique feel compared to a traditional hotel. I would absolutely stay here again when in the Costa Mesa area.

We will gladly return to this hotel the next time we stay in Orange County.
Pros:

This was a quiet oasis and a comfortable, luxurious hotel in the middle of a bustling city. We could walk to Southwest Repertory Theater and Southcoast Plaza. The event we visited was a short drive away. We even enjoyed walking around the lake when we had a free moment. Our balcony/deck was very private. The large room was well-appointed, and the bed was large and comfortable. Our breakfast in the neighboring restaurant, while expensive, was delicious. The parking worked out well, using our room key to come and go. If only the parking had been complimentary...

Cons:

The only thing we didn't like was a lamp that seemed to pop on by itself with a motion detector, so we just unplugged it.

Amazing hotel for the price. Wouldn’t even consider another in the area.
Pros:

Wonderful view from the room, and the room was super clean and incredibly comfortable and welcoming. Loved being able to get the breeze from the balcony. Silver Trumpet Bar is a wonderful addition and the manager and bartender were very friendly and gave great service.

Cons:

Nothing.
