Courtyard by Marriott John Wayne Airport/Orange County

Courtyard by Marriott John Wayne Airport/Orange County

5/5 Excellent
"Stayed here during my time visiting family in Irvine. Super convenient and close location to John Wayne Airport, but not too close so that you can avoid hearing the planes. Whole Foods is about a 6-7 minute drive from here. And you're close to a lot of the more popular places in Irvine. Great staff. Clean rooms. The decor could have been a little brighter, but overall, still a terrific stay. Two thumbs up."
