Very nice. Comfortable room. We didn't see much of the hotel as we were busy and didn't have time. The biggest issue we had was PARKING! Not a good situation. We paid $45 for parking - which was quite a ways from entrance (at least we couldn't find an easy way to access). Then no one at hotel told us we needed to keep our room card to leave the parking (after checkout) so we were stuck paying $20 more!!! $65 for parking because no one told us how to manage this?! I think this much for parking is awful anyway, but the extra amount was unfair.

We went for a one night stay to use the pool and relax. Was disappointed that there was black algae all around the pool and it got on my bathing suit. I never had this happen at a Westin. The staff was very attentive and took care of the situation promptly.

Great location, close to big mall with lots of restaurants around and only 7 minutes away from airport. Friendly staff, smooth check in and late checkout since we have late flight. Comfortable bed, spacious room but heated pool was not warm enough for swimming during winter time, no hot tub for four stars hotel.

Westin was great. No issues. Parking was ridiculous. $45 for overnight through Westin. The overnight rate for the structure was $20!!! What? Also, it was so empty. Hardly any cars there, so doesn’t seem to be a nuisance to park. I usually choose a hotel with parking in mind…they got me on this one. Great rate for the hotel - not so much for the parking.

We liked the location. We asked to go from level 3 to level 7. What a big difference in the view and we enjoyed it immensely. I loved the softness of the bed. The only thing that was disappointing was the parking. It was not on the property and we had to park in a parking structure across the street. Walking back and forth spoiled the stay for me.

The property itself was clean and what you would expect for a Westin. The rooms however are not very noise proof, all sound transmits and is disruptive in the morning. Besides this there are not enough staff to check in and out hotel guests; only one person which can lead to wait times. Do not charge anything to your room as items are not charged correctly and then the reception will say they lost your check and don't show you an itemized list of what you actually consumed. Double check all records as on two occasions we were overcharged for incorrect items.

I drove three hrs got here at 4:00 pm only to be told there was no queen rooms available.. I asked how is there no rooms I paid in full for my reservation for two queen beds.. check in is at 3:00 pm I'm an hour after that and there is no room available.. so I questioned what is a reservation for.. and asked for a manager which was Israel who then told me I could stay somewhere else.. what kind of customer service is that ? No empathy after all they are at fault not me.. how does a customer pay for a reservation and then not have one .. israel was rude and snobby.. to suggest I go somewhere else what an inconvenience.. why should I have to look last minute for another room .. when I paid .. sad and unfortunate.. I will never stay or recommend this hotel to anyone.. unprofessional disrespectful people they have as staff!

There is also a Starbucks and snack shop inside the hotel, as well as a Restaurant. This hotel is very full service and the bellhops will take your luggage up to your room and help you load your car when you leave. Very comfortable. Stay in a very clean environment.

While a bit dated, it's conveniently located and quite a large hotel next to John Wayne Airport. We had business in Irvine and South Coast Plaza which was literally a bridge walk over in the next complex. While we didn't have time to enjoy the pool, it looked well kept. Breakfast was standard fare but a bit steep in prices. Overall, friendly concierge and staff. The little convenient shop was great for water/snacks.
