Atrium Hotel at Orange County Airport

6/10 Okay

"The building is old, but ok for the price. Key importance, you can hardly hear the planes in the room! The pool area is really nice as are the grounds! Unfortunately the front desk staff were dismissive and acted as if you are an inconvenience for staying there. I requested creamer & 20 mins later I haven’t received any so I called back & she said it will be a while. Went out into the hall & saw a room attendant next door, overheard the front desk woman I spoke to requesting my creamer over their walkie talkies, so she never did the first time. Went to park & there was an unattended vehicle in the main drive, I went inside & informed the front desk. They stated it is probably a rental vehicle. I asked if it was going to be moved. They said I can reverse my car & exit the property onto the main road & then go in on the other side to park. I informed them people are behind us as well. They repeated to reverse and exit. After directing people behind us & parking I came in & noticed the rental car office is just across from the front desk. So all they had to do was ask the guy to move the car. Yikes, not very good customer service! They have food onsite but it comes from a vending machine or their “room service”, is a 5 restaurant list you choose from, you pay for the food, a service fee, a delivery fee and a tip! This food is also left at your door, no knock or indication it’s there. So check frequently and hope no one messed with it! 😒 Room attendants were all very sweet!"
