Steven, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

ADA VIOLATIONS & HARASSMENT Not disability friendly, staff was extremely unpleasant, staff parks in the handicap spots, $30 for additional parking every night per car and rooms/hotel did not look like the ads and or photos.
Employee that was rude
Employees car who decided he needs to park in 1 of the 2 handicap spaces.  Even though he is fully capable to walk. (He confirmed he has no disabilities)
Semeran, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great stay!

We came for a girls weekend and had a great time. Would stay again, mainly due to how close you are to the beach.
Shelly, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Bedside lamps not working and there was a $30 fee to park overnight that was not disclosed clearly at time of booking. I would pass on staying here again.
Darrel, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

That photo is NOT the Newport Beach location. Staff was pleasant but lazy. Luggage cart was "missing" and employee "just didn't know where it could be" and did not look for it! Parking rate jumping to $30/night from $20/night is extreme. Still, sign reads park at your own risk. Refrigerator froze bottled water, could not adjust that temp.
Kimberly, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Overall good.

Overall good experience, great location in my opinion. Just steps from the beach. I feel their parking fee is excessive and their stalls are very narrow. The lobby was warm inside as if they were trying to save power. Second time staying here. Their prices make it affordable.

6/10 Good

Be prepared for noise - both inside but as most rooms overlook the Pacific Coastal Highway - it feels like sleeping on the sidewalk if on a lowing floor.
Martyn, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

They were very flexible and lenient on parking, close to the beach and pretty clean but u can def tell it use to b a motel.

Great place to stay
Kyle, 4-night trip

2/10 Poor

Walking into the room was alarming. The comforter was all balled up and looked awful. Black feet print in the tub. Looked like it wasn’t even attempted to be cleaned. Then hair in the bed. We lasted 15 mins in the room and checked right back out. We were told we couldn’t get a refund for the first night because we had already ‘checked in’
Angie, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great little property right by the beach. Everything was as described and perfect if you're driving as it has excellent transport links.
Nicholas, 4-night trip

I dropped the remote on the floor and went to look for it under the bed and there was a used condom under the bed! So disgusting
Elise, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The room was clean and stylish. Staff was very friendly and accomodating to our needs. Only fault would be the water pressure and temperature could've been better.
Kim, 5-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice place to stay and super close to the beach! Being able to walk to the beach was the best part. The rooms are simple but they have everything you need. It’s not a luxury hotel but a cheap way to be close to the beach. Worth it!!
Karla, 3-night trip
