Laguna Woods Vacations from $261

Excellent !

This was a wonderful place to rest during a 4-day mourning period for my brother-in-law. The staff was very friendly, flexible, and accommodating. In particular when I drove off leaving my purse in the parking lot where I had parked the car, someone retrieved it and turned it in (not before removing $180 cash), so when I returned half an hour later, worrying that all my flight information, ID, credit cards etc were lost, I was able to ask the housekeeping staff, and they knew all about it and gave it back to me, assuring me that they had opened it only to identify its owner. I had never before encountered a remote "front desk" but it seemed to work well and was very helpful, as was phoning for information from my room. The coffee and seltzer machines were wonderful adjuncts; the only drawback was having to be dressed to go down to the lobby for the morning coffee that wakes me up! I had not reckoned with the $15/day parking fee, but it only slightly reduced my estimation of this as a great value accommodation. The refrigerator and microwave allowed me to breakfast and snack with $30 of groceries from the Ralph's two blocks away.
