La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Irvine Spectrum

10/10 Excellent

"Great way to use old silos."

Pacific Edge Hotel

8/10 Good

"The hotel is in a great location and the staff is very friendly. It’s seven buildings for one hotel, which is interesting. It’s a very “tight” area, so valet only for the car, which is helpful so you don’t need to find parking, but you are locked into the fee. The room has a good amount of space. The only downsides to the room are the walls are thin, bed is super hard, and water pressure is low in the shower. Nice stay, but couldn’t spend more than two nights with the bed."
