I recently had the opportunity to stay at this hotel while I was planning to attend an evening performance of "The Glory of Easter" at the Crystal Cathedral in Garden Grove. I live in Los Angeles but I wanted to spend the night and attend early morning Easter services at the Cathedral without driving back and forth to LA. For the amount that you paid, myself included, I really don't know what there is to gripe about. My A/C and heater was great. The TV worked, my phone worked (wake up call included) there was a coffee brewer, with coffee, in the room as well as a microwave and mini refrigerator. The room was clean!' clean sheets on the bed and there were no bed bugs/mites (I checked). The bathroom were sanitized and I was supplied with as many towels by the room cleaning lady as I needed. The man that checked me in was most pleasant and helpful in quickly checking me in and finding the phone numbers of a couple eating places for me. It was to cold for the pool and to lay out in the sun but I could have if I wanted to. You know...the experience was so favorable that I booked a second night just rest, catch up on some reading, and watch a little TV then go out to a fancy feast at the Red Lobster (only five minutes away). After all the price was less for two nights here at this Econo Lodge Inn than it might of been for one night at most hotels elsewhere. It exceeded my expectations. After all the name of the place is Econo Lodge.
