The location of the property was good, and the staff were professional amd helpful. However the area where we stayed- not main hotel, was old and needed an update. The walls are thin as well, as we heard everything going on in the room beside us and above.

Ok but some missteps

While most things were Ok, a few things picqued me:Check in: we arrived at 2:20, exhausted but needing to do a quick change before a meeting. We were greeted with “Your room won’t be ready till 3.” No attempt to check on the room, no concern for or situation. WiFi: most of the time it didn’t work at all or I received a notice that while we were connected to Ayer’s, it was not connected to the internet. This is in the heart of the OC, almost next door to the airport. If we had to be in town more than 1 night, I would have moved to another hotel.
