It was a really good experience and great price . They even gave us a 20% off coupon for the Dennys right next door which was a plus and the service was great as well . The only thing that I didn't like was the fridge would make like a cracking sound and it would wake me up at night but other than that it was great :) read more

I am extremely disappointed with my experience at Orange Grove Inn. I booked my reservation approximately one month in advance for June 18-24 and received a confirmation email showing those exact dates. As I was traveling internationally from Canada, these dates were planned well in advance and were not flexible. Before traveling, I double-checked my reservation details to ensure everything was correct. When I arrived at the hotel on the evening of June 18, the front desk agent informed me that he could not locate my reservation. After I provided my confirmation email, he searched further and stated that the reservation in their system showed dates of June 17-23 and had been marked as a "no-show" because I did not arrive on June 17. The front desk agent contacted a colleague, who reportedly advised that someone had called the hotel on June 9 claiming to be me and requested that the reservation dates be changed. I never called the hotel to modify my reservation, nor did I authorize anyone else to do so. This raises serious concerns about the hotel's reservation verification procedures. If reservation changes can be made over the phone, there should be sufficient verification measures in place to confirm the identity of the caller before altering a guest's booking, such as asking for the phone number or email on file. To make matters worse, I was charged approximately $160 CAD as a no-show fee due to a situation that was entirely outside of my control. I was informed that the charge was non-refundable. While I understand and respect no-show and cancellation policies-I work in the hair salon industry that also enforces such policies-I do not believe it is reasonable to charge a customer when the issue appears to have resulted from an error in the reservation process and the hotel business rather than any action on the guest's part. The most frustrating aspect of this experience was arriving after an international flight only to discover that I effectively had no accommodation and was left scrambling to find somewhere else to stay. What should have been the start of a relaxing vacation became an extremely stressful and costly situation. I hope management reviews this incident carefully, investigates how my reservation was altered without my authorization, and reconsiders the no-show charge. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend this hotel. UPDATE: the hotel called me and told me that they have issued the full refund which is great, but I hope they learned their lesson to be more diligent in terms of modifying/cancelling reservations and verification measures, because being stranded in a different country is not OK and it was a stupid mistake on their end that could've been easily avoided. read more

MAJOR BUG PROBLEMS Stayed four nights dealing with bugs and the inconvenience of being moved to another room for scheduled housekeeping. I didn't make a big deal out of it. The manager then became extremely rude, refused my business, and put me on the ban list with no explanation. I asked why and she still wouldn't give a reason. I was polite the entire time. Extremely unprofessional. read more

WOW! I'll assume this budget priced motel has recently undergone a MAJOR refurbishment, because this was a FIND! We needed a central location for an OC adventure weekend. After graciously being allowed to check in early on a Friday afternoon, we barely had time to throw our suitcases in the room, and snacks in the mini fridge before we were off to The California Angeles of Los Angeles in Anaheim Baseball Stadium (or whatever it's called these days), a quick 10 minute drive away. Getting back to this haven was wonderful, easy and convenient. And our after game sandwiches were perfectly fresh from the aforementioned mini fridge. The next day we took a bit longer to look around this property. We noticed the night before, when we got in around 10pm, that there was a very well lit parking lot and plenty of parking spaces. We admired all the thoughtful landscape details of the new plantings. The pool area was being enjoyed by one family, but it was also quite lovely and newly refurbished, including a shady gazebo! The most surprising feature to me was the on-site laundry room. We stumbled upon it while looking for the ice machine. Using our room key to enter, we saw a small area furnished nicely with 2 NEW coin op washer and dryers. (Sorry, I forgot to look at the per load fee for each. The room itself was stuffy and warm, but there's a wall A/C unit to turn on and a desk and chair, should you chose to wait there for your laundry. Very thoughtful additions! The Queen room we booked for 2 nights was EXACTLY as it was shown on the Hotels.com website! Very clean and comfortable. Headboard had attached reading lights above and side tables with shelf, which I appreciate. The shower had full size bottles of Paya Shampoo, Conditioner and Body Wash, which Hubs enjoyed, and the shower itself was large, good pressure, HOT water and low profile, easy to get in/out of. Towels were full size - not bath sheet, exactly, but large, clean and soft. They also offered a single brew coffee in the room and, if I'm not mistaken, AM coffee in the lobby. Not a coffee drinker, so I forget. Rooms also have a microwave, ironing board, hairdryer, wi-fi, large flat screen TV, and loads of places to plug in, USB and standard US 120-V outlets. You may notice this hotel is one parallel road(El Camino Real) away from I-5, but we never noticed it. Yes, we were located on the 2nd floor of the interior of the Orange Grove Inn and had the A/C running all night, but there's also a new VERY LARGE sound wall blocking the freeway noise. Disneyland is a 15 minute, easy on/easy off, drive up I-5 from Orange Grove Inn, so I would recommend it for budget accommodations if that attraction is on your itinerary. SHOOT! You could even Uber/Lyft to the park and spend less time dealing with Disneyland parking lots, if you wanted. We found it an easy drive from this motel to the foothills and canyons of Irvine, when we went exploring out to the Silverado Cafe and Arden:Helena Modjeska House. Next time were venturing around OC and need a welcoming, comfortable, VERY CLEAN, friendly, attentive staff kinda place to stay, we'll be at the Orange Grove Inn. Cheers! "CC" read more

Absolutely loved staying here!!! Pros: -Super clean -Everything looks recently renovated -Great location (near so many restaurants and cities) -Has a gym and pool -Lots of lights -Great pricing -AC works super well -Super nice employees -Vending machine area Cons: -Flat pillows -Right next to I-5 (ok for deep sleeps but not for light sleepers) -Standard Rooms do not explicitly stated to NOT have microwave and mini fridge (which I think is ridiculous, all rooms no matter what should have them) -2 smoking areas next to pool (which I think it's weird because wouldn't you not want that near an area where kids might swim in) Overall, can't stop raving out this place to friends and family! read more

I have been getting a room at this place about once a week for the last two and a half months because I've been homeless today on October 4th I have a reservation and I know it's early but every time I've come in this early they've let me check in this early and it's been very helpful because I'm homeless but there is one employee an Asian man who always is very incoherent like he just woke up constantly lies about availabilities and won't even let you get in a word that tells you to get out and not to come back till 3:00 p.m. no matter what even though someone's like myself is a citrus club member and s*** and gets to be able to have an early check in. He knows I'm homeless and that if I have to wait 9 hours till 3:00 p.m. to get the room I have nowhere to go so I literally have to sit outside in front of the office on the sidewalk and wait and he doesn't even care. The room is available it there are empty rooms and I even reserved the room and he still doesn't want to help me out and let me have an early check it this is like the worst experience I've ever had here usually it's all good but he is the worst employee I've ever been around and I'm in the service industry I am a bartender if I wasn't homeless I would not be coming to this hotel ever again, it's now 3:30am and he is making me wait outside on the curb for 11 and a half hours to check in at 3:30 even though rooms are available and I'm a citrus club member and one of the benefits is an early check in, this is so embarrassing, I've never felt so ashamed or less then a human in my life. If it wasn't for this employee and the lady that he usually works with, I would have nothing negative to say about this place read more

Don't come here. On Apple Maps it says they take tap to pay AND Apple Pay but they actually don't. My Mom drove 400 miles to visit me in college and was not able to even check in. She brought my Dad's credit card and they said she couldn't use it because he wasn't there with his ID. She couldn't even use the card on her phone because they falsely advertised that they take tap to pay. They wouldn't let the man in front of us check in either because his physical card wasn't from a "big bank." Don't come here. Very bad service. read more

So hear me out: If you're for the Ritz then go look at the Ritz, but also, be ready to pay the price. If you're looking tor a more cost-effective stay, and in the city of Tustin, this is your place. Some history first: this place used to be known as some other hotel, which didn't have a very good reputation; however, since a new company bought it remodeled it and opened under a new name and new company, this place is delightful-- especially for the price. What's here that is useful? Laundry first (yep I'll a mom), a cute pool with plenty of seating, a closer knit feel (which makes it easier for security to look after everyone), and a kind staff (especially the cleaning crew). There's also a small gym if you're into working out. Next door is a Denny's which is convenient given that they are a 24/7 diner. As for extra bonus points: The shower. Whatever they are doing with their shower pressure, I want one. Drawbacks: I wish the room stayed more cool. Same for the mini fridge. In the end, in the city of Tustin, you have like four choices when it comes to hotels, so pick this one, especially if you're into a good price for a good stay. read more

I am a 100% disabled military veteran. Due to circumstances, me and my son had to stay at this motel for an extended period. The rooms are fine. The price is right. The staff is not. Housekeeping will come, knock, and if you're in the room, they won't get to your room, even if you ask them to come back. I stayed in a room for 8 days one of my stays, and they didn't clean it for 5 days. How do I know that? I killed some bugs that were still there 5 days later. That would frustrate anyone. My son was sick another time when we stayed here. He was in bed and we needed towels and toilet paper. She wasn't going to go in there until I got frustrated and said we don't have any toilet paper as I'm walking to my car to grab some meds for my son. When I came back, there were towels and one roll of toilet paper. After I checked out the last day, the assistant GM, maybe GM, I don't know, called me and informed me that they would not be taking my business anymore. I asked why and she just kept saying we have the right to refuse service to anyone for any reason. Yes, you do, but I've spent thousands of dollars for rooms at your motel and, other than a couple times I was frustrated, I can't think of any reason why. So, yeah, that's how they treat disabled veterans. Refused service with no explanation. Thanks a lot. read more

The Orange Grove Inn -- a title that conjures visions of pastoral citrus groves and sun-dappled repose, yet delivers instead a symposium of indignities. Sedated by its lofty Yelp ratings, I arrived with optimism bordering on naïveté. Mere hours before check-in, however, I received a portentous call: the establishment had indulged in the ancient art of overbooking and inquired whether I might exile myself to a different hotel -- this was notably unaccompanied by compensation, contrition, or even a perfunctory coupon. I declined. The inn itself reclines beside the freeway in what might generously be described as an auditory amphitheater. My room, strategically stationed beside the parking lot, afforded me immersive access to the oratory stylings of late-night congregants and the dulcet hum of interstate transportation. Soundproofing was aspirational. I may as well have resided in a cardboard box on Skid Row. The bedding was laughably minimal: a sheet of ecclesiastical thinness and pillows with the structural integrity of neglected paperbacks. The bathroom featured a lone hair in the sink -- perhaps a memento from a prior pilgrim -- and black grime curating the corners. As I washed my hands, I was visited by a surprise guest: a cockroach scuttling across sink. The following morning, I discovered a foreign toenail clipping nestled in my bed, as though the housekeeping staff had wished to leave me a keepsake. Not to be outdone, some nocturnal arthropod elected to feast upon me in three distinct locales, each bite swelling with concerning severity. Upon checkout, I was informed -- with bureaucratic serenity -- that my failure to summon staff at midnight rendered all grievances retroactively inadmissible. Having merely desired a safe and hygienic sanctuary in which to repose after evenings with friends, I was instead treated to a masterclass in institutional indifference. Compensation remained as mythical as the orange grove itself. In sum: a stay so memorably abysmal it borders on performance art. I shall not return, though I do hope the establishment one day aspires toward cleanliness, humility, and perhaps fewer toenails. read more

Had a great experience throughout a two week stay! The room was so clean, staff were friendly and responsive. read more

The hotel staff was very kind and welcoming, and they clearly explained both the room location and parking situation. My room was clean, tidy, and had everything I needed for my one-night stay: a desk with chair, TV, A/C, extra seating, and a private bathroom with shower. The only downside was that the walls are quite thin and the door doesn't seal well, so noise from neighboring rooms and the hallway travels easily. I was in room 230, and I could even feel vibrations when people walked by. Being near the freeway wasn't an issue for me, but loud or inconsiderate guests were noticeable. The price and location were ideal. I also appreciated the 20% off coupon for Denny's just a few minutes away. Overall, I would recommend staying here--just be aware that sound carries easily and room shakes some. read more

I have no clue as to why any person who actually stayed here could give t more than one star. And that's because there's no zero star rating available. 1. Ever been to prison? Now you can! And with the same amenities! Hope you're not claustrophobic :) 2. Do they actually make walls out of paper? Is that cheaper? My neighbors decided to play rugby day and night, and I caught every detail! I think that officially makes me a refereee. 3. I guess it's illegal to build a hotel on an interstate freeway, but not 50 feet away, thankfully! Very convenient if you're deaf, and if you're not, you will be soon enough! 4. Se habla espanol? No problemo. Just don't complain or ask any questions. You'll feel less stupid. read more

Stayed here for 2 nights for a Disneyland trip which was about a 10-12 min drive from the parks. Overall, our stay was great experience! Upon check in, the front desk guy was very nice and professional. Our room was clean. No black/dirty feet! To our surprise, they even have daily housekeeping which at most places you have to request it. Also, Denny's was literally a building away so convenient if you want to grab breakfast. They also offer 20% off at Dennys for staying at the hotel! Some minor downsides was no elevator that I saw, the motel/property itself looked alot smaller than the pictures, small parking lot and the showers were a little cramped. Also, pillows were kind of flat but I'm sure if you ask for more, they would be more than happy to provide extra. The walls were pretty thin bc we could faintly hear next door tv and ppl talking. read more

Booked through Expedia and check in was a breeze. Our room was super clean and in pristine condition. I was so impressed by how well this Inn was renovated.. every last detail was impeccable. The shower doors alone were impressive. We were facing the pool, so the freeway noise was very minimal. We did get a chance to enjoy the pool and the water was clean, the outdoor furniture was clean and the property overall was spotless. We were there for 4th of July and were able to watch the Tustin High School fireworks show right from the balcony. We stay at hotels/motels often and most of them have a 3 night policy before servicing your room. I didnt even think about putting the "resting peacefully" sign on our door when we left for the day and when we got back later that night, or room had been serviced. Fresh towels, bed made. I felt guilty for the service only after 1 night, but it was nice to come back to a freshened up room. I had an envelope with $1000 cash on my nightstand (like i said i didnt expect the room to be serviced) and all my cash was still there. Not that I would assume it to be stolen, but you always hear stories and warnings about leaving valuables in your room. Trustworthy staff speaks volumes. Anyway, 10/10 would recommend and we'll stay here again next time we're in Orange County. read more

Very clean and the front desk staff is very polite and helpful. The only downside is, it's by the freeway so you hear the traffic. But if you are a heavy sleeper then this is a good place for you. read more

TLDR: Don't stay at this property. It's very loud from the freeway, remote didn't work properly and the parking lot felt unsafe. When we went to check in, there was an employee at the desk who didn't speak English and who insinuated to us that the main worker was in the bathroom. He awkwardly waited outside of the bathroom for no less than 10 minutes. When the employee exited the bathroom, she didn't apologize or acknowledge our wait in any way. When we brought our concern to her attention, she gave a very snooty look and acted as if we were being unreasonable. This was not in the least bit welcoming. Other than that, the room was very loud since the property is practically on the freeway, the remote didn't work properly, and the parking lot felt sketchy. I would definitely recommend staying elsewhere. read more

Coffee of Praise goes to the Orange Grove Inn for truly outstanding customer service. Josh and Brian went above and beyond to make my stay smooth, welcoming, and stress-free. Their professionalism, positive attitude, and genuine care for guests made a real difference. Employees like them are what set a hotel apart -- exceptional service all around. read more

I had a great experience during my stay. Bryan at the front desk went above and beyond with his hospitality, he was incredibly helpful and made the check-in and late checkout process super smooth. We really appreciated him getting us a 12pm checkout! The room was clean and comfortable with a nice modern shower, and the pool area was a great place to relax. Overall, we had an awesome stay and would definitely come back. Thank you again to Bryan for making the experience even better! read more

I usually stay at their sister hotel Lemon Heights Inn & I loved it there. So I decided to book here because it was $20 cheaper. But I made the mistake and booked a room with no fridge or microwave. The owner & Alondra switched rooms for me at no extra charge for one that had both. They were so accommodating to me, even though it was my mistake. I recognized Alondra from the other hotel & she is always nice & accommodating. These rooms are clean & the beds are so comfy. I would recommend Lemon Heights inn or Orange Grove Inn to anyone who is looking to get away for a night or mini vacation. read more

LOVE Clean, comfortable, contemporary motel. No frills. LIKE Lots of road noise from the freeway but I drowned it out with the AC. Maybe request a room inside the pool area. ICK Not sure, but I may have gotten flea bites here. read more

Facilities were clean, ample parking. My issue was I had to file a dispute with my credit card provider to get my deposit back.

Rooms are great prices are great but leaving a 1 star review for them pretty much stealing the 50 dollar deposit fee. After a week of not getting the refund back I called them and they said the reason was someone had smoked in the room. Me and my fiancé who stayed there do not smoke at all. We checked in at 2 pm left to Disney for the whole day got back at 1 am and left the hotel at 8 am the next morning. Room smelled clean when we got there and when we left. Turns out housekeeping said the room was smoked in. Pretty crazy if you ask me. I will be disputing the charge with my credit card company. Beware if they don't refund you the 50 dollar deposit. read more

Pleasantly surprised. Stayed just one night and the inn is quiet and really clean. Would stay again.

This hotel is great. It's beautiful, clean friendly staff. Nice rooms. Great price definitely would stay here again.

Booked this hotel thru Expedia, check in was great we did check in around 1am and we had no issues checking in very late customer service was great, security was walking around the hotel making sure everything was good which was great we felt secured. Regarding the room we did book a queen bed but we got a full bed. I would say double check on that if booking here. Overall the hotel was clean outside area as well. We requested for the room to be clean while we were running errands we also requested extra towels and they provided excellent service. I would say this has to be the best most affordable hotel. Water pressure was great 9/10 Definitely booking this place again! Love it ! read more

Pleasantly surprised! Booked last minute for a weekend event at UCI. Room was clean and sheets smelled washed. Remodeled rooms and building looking new and somewhat modern. Check in was seamless. Our room did not have any fridge or microwave but I did not need to have to use both-it would have been nice to store cold drinks. There was ample parking and I like the fact that their ice machine and laundry had access only to guests. Overall, I would recommend it. read more

Amazing experience throughout my entire 4-day extended-weekend stay. One of the best priced hotels you will find in Orange County with friendly hotel staff and plenty of hospitality. Motel-style inn with well-maintained facilities such as the fitness center & swimming pool. Lots of parking and easily accessible right off of the I-5. On any given day, Orange Grove Inn is a 10 minute drive from Irvine Spectrum Center, a 10 minute drive from John Wayne Airport (SNA), and under a 20 minute drive from Newport Beach. The minimum age for check-in is 18, so it is convenient accommodation for college students and travelers alike. read more

I absolutely love this place. It's very clean, the people are nice and respectful. The area is safe and close to the freeways. There are near by food and shopping centers. The place is very quite at night and they provide everything you need. They have shampoo, conditioner, bodywash, hair dryer, and towels. I trust this place every time I travel. read more

Nice place to stay! Got taken care of the right way. Josh P making it happen with a quick and smooth check in!

I suggest this inn if you're looking for something that's affordable and clean. My fiancé and I booked this place as a last minute idea because we don't want to go back home late at night and we liked our stay here as it is near the freeway, super clean and friendly staff. Totally recommended!!! read more

Stayed here for a few days because we were in town to visit Disneyland. The room is pretty clean and the AC works well which was imperative in the blazing heat. Although, the water pressure from the shower could have been a lot better. We also parked my car here and had no issues with any break-ins which is always a concern parking overnight in a hotel lot. For the most part, it was okay. My only real complaint is that bed sucks. We booked for a deluxe queen bed and we got a full. I thought I'd suck it up because it was only a few days. They also do not give you a proper comforter, only a couple of bedsheet thin blankets to put on top of you. I will say though, it is on me for not speaking up about the bed size as that can be easily fixed and they could have probably just put us in a different room, thus why they are still getting 3 stars. But, the bed was very uncomfortable, regardless. :( read more

Was looking for a little spot to some adult thangs lol and found this place. Looked nice but couldn't find any rooms online. I drove there and there were hardly any cars so of course when I walked in they had rooms for a Tuesday night for $107. That's cheap but still I guess pricey for a weekday. What do I know anyway there was a sign for a $50 deposit along with a $125 if you smoke in the room. That's all great but tell me why they have no signs on the site or on the front counter that there's an additional $25 fee if there is a 2nd car/person checking in..I'll find out if that's refunded. ‍ I mean overall it's decent but come on. Not all people are shady and need to be charged for this or that..UPDATE..that $25 "extra car fee" was not refunded..which in my own opinion should be. read more

I love this hotel , everything is new, at least in the rooms I've stayed in, the staff are very nice and accommodating, Bryan especially, they let me do an early check in one time no charge , it's quiet , clean and you can't beat the prices. What I do most like about it is the cleanliness, and the discretion of the staff.What I mean is they mind their own business which is nice compared to other places. read more
