  : I enjoyed the connection of the people around. The tenants who stayed there were very hospital
  : My stay wasn't long enough to enjoy the city.

  : The location relative to the convention hall, the price. Ease of check-in/check-out.
  : I felt as if my privacy was violated. When I came back after the first night there was a note taped to my bunk that read: "PATRICK HANKAMER you have a medical condition! Please use nasal strips!" Snoring. I was snoring. How did the owner know?

  : This guesthouse is located in a quiet residential area. There is a dedicated bicycle trail going to the Newport beach. Also there is a direct bus to Newport departing every hour. Good for people who don't have their own car. There are some outlet shops and cafes in a walking distance. My room and the shared bathroom were clean. WiFi worked well. The host let me leave my bags prior to the official check-in time (which is very late, 7pm)
  : Upon arrival, I was shocked by the amount of notes forbidding or limiting something on every wall. No talking. No photos. No walking. Shower use 10 mins max. No cooking in the kitchen. No use of own kitchenware. Flush the toilet twice. No matter where you go, there would be another warning sign. In addition, the owner put my booking printout containing such sensitive data as my private phone number, address and full name on the door of my room, letting any guest read it. I freaked out when I saw it and I had to use black pen to cover the details I did not want to share with any random public. The host kept disclosing personal data for all current and future guests of his property. I am not sure this is even legal and doesn't breach any privacy laws. The next day the owner started asking me, if the hiking boots that I put on the rack outside really belong to me and not to some "friend" whom I am (supposedly) hiding in my room. I assured him that the shoes were mine (I wear hiking boots 2 sizes bigger to be able to put thing woolen socks on my feet). After this talk I freaked out again, so I could not sleep the second night. Even though I prepaid for 3 nights at the property, after the second sleepless night spent in anxiety of breaching any of these 1000 rules again, I called my friends and asked if I can spend the 3rd night at their place. Luckily, I managed to escape and could finally breathe freely. I will not return to this place even if offered money.

  : Distance to Anaheim Conference Center is doable on foot, takes 1h one-way. Bus connection to MetroLink and AmTrak is easy and direct (twice per h). Location wonderfully quiet, no traffic noise (snoring roommates is hostel risk . . ). Staff very friendly, helpful and personable (includes a chicken that offers a morning welcome).
  : Breakfast is entirely do-it-yourself and on the sparse side (tee bag, banana, orange). A coffee to start the day would have been nice. Kitchen is super-clean, but food preparation is very restrictive (re-heating, no cooking from scratch).

Disappointing
