Good news for you; just completed a stay at the property this past weekend and they are going to be doing a significant renovation scheduled for "Fall 2019." Included will be a refresh of the rooms and the addition of an M-Lounge in the lobby.
As a recap, the top (11th) floor is designated as a Marriott Elite Floor and that's normally where I am placed. The suites have generally held up ok, but the bath tub and showers are showing their age and the awkward placement of the flat screen TVs in the room (the old tube TVs were better placed) is a little annoying. I'm hoping both of these items will be addressed in the renovation. Otherwise, great location and proximity to SNA, friendly staff, and all-suite layout makes this a solid choice in the area.
