"I enjoyed my stay at Motel 6 Costa Mesa. Víctor at the front desk was friendly as I checked in. I didn’t have any issues while I was there. The room I stayed in smelled like smoke somewhat, so that was a bummer, but it wasn’t horrible. The room was clean, especially the bed and shower which I was very grateful for. There is not much as far as amenities go, but you get what you pay for. Overall it was a good stay."

"Had a really great stay at the Avenue of the Arts Costa Mesa. The whole place has a calm, artsy vibe, and the lake right next to it makes it feel super relaxing. The room was clean, comfortable, and nicely designed (the bed was especially great). Loved the location too—right by the Segerstrom Center for the Arts but still quiet. Also recommend grabbing a drink or dinner at the Silver Trumpet Restaurant & Bar—the lakeside setting is really nice, especially at night. Would definitely stay here...
