My husband and I stayed at this property for Christmas & my birthday in 2017. Upon booking, I wrote to the owner and told her how excited I was to come back to the city of my alma mater (Chapman) for my 30th birthday. She was so sweet and prompt in writing me back, and established a connection with me, as her birthday is the day before mine! When we checked in, she had left us a card & a little gift of champagne in the fridge for my special day! The home was immaculate -- super clean and had recently been renovated (very modern aesthetic and brand new appliances). Having two bedrooms was nice to be able to spread out, and the living room was very spacious and comfortable to relax in. We were grateful for the full size fridge and enough appliances for us to cook our own meals (although owner might consider investing in more oven-safe cookware, as well as a couple more pots & pans, and easy spices like salt!). Within walking distance to the Old Town Orange Circle, it was very easy to go pick up food or coffee and bring back to the apartment. The place is also within walking distance to Hart Park, which has lots of grass, a playground, and other amenities. The neighborhood is very quiet, and there is not a lot of street noise. If you have a car, you are still quite close to all the freeways to get you anywhere. Ideally, having a car in Orange County is essential, but at this property, you could get on just fine with walking around Orange. We loved the privacy of this unit, as it is situated above the owner's garage, and on a separate property than her house. We ran into her a couple times in the driveway, but for the most part, you are completely separate. I will absolutely stay here again the next time we come to Orange County -- I really look forward to it!!!
