The good, the bad and the ugly…

there were three of us staying in a three person suite. The king bed mattress was completely shock. I wouldn’t let my dog sleep on it. The full out full-size in the living room was even worse than the king mattress. Just not a great place for humans to sleep. flor was dirty and our feet were black when we walked without our shoes. There was black mold in the bathroom and even though there were three of us on the reservation, there was only one cup for coffee, one cup in bathroom and we had to scrounge up the sleeping sheets, pillows and blankets for the hideous pull out bed. On the bright side, the management company hires wonderful people. They were totally sweet and helpful.

It’s a wonderful stay! So nice to be by the beach! The access to the beach is a little hard because of the stairs but there’s also a way you can drive! Definitely recommend this place!!

Sofa bed was dirty, had to beg for sheets, bathroom was moldy, and no cleaning service. Nice view but, the beach was thousand steps away as you have to cross the railroad tracks via tall sky bridge. Staff was not friendly kicked everyone out from the breakfast area at 10am sharp.

Just okay, but staff is great!

The staff was amazing, very friendly. Unfortunately, in my humble opinion, the price of the room was too much for the type of room received. Yes, it's close to the beach, but it's a bit small and uncomfortable. If you're going to hang out in your room for a bit, I would not recommend it. If you just need a place to sleep, should be ok.

I was aware that this hotel did not have a pool, but I figured jacuzzi would be good enough. It was not working, it was Luke warm by evening it was cold. I got the impression from staff that this was normal. The bathroom sink had a leak , I could tell it had been leaking for awhile the wood underneath was rotted. Every sliding door in this hotel does not have a screen. Would have loved to leave slider open to hear the ocean. But bugs were flying in. We were given 3 bed pillows not 4 like most hotels , 3 shower towels not 4. One tiny shower soap! At least there was breakfast. It was just okay. Will I stay here again. Probably not. Beach was not the best either. I would have really appreciated an apology or parking discount for the non working jacuzzi.

Would not recommend

The photos are misleading; this place is quite outdated and significantly overpriced. We experienced a hard mattress, lumpy pillows, and poor amenities. The only redeeming qualities were the nice view and the helpfulness of the front desk attendant, which earned it two stars.

We were super excited to go to this hotel based on all the positive reviews; unfortunately, we were greatly disappointed with the hotel and location. Hotel is in poor condition, needs major remodeling. It offers a hot tub, but jets are barely working. The morning breakfast was a huge disappointment, we walked into a breakfast room to see what they had, and walked out without any food. Location is bad; yes, you can see the ocean from your hotel room, but there is a chain link fence all along the beach to prevent people from crossing the busy road and railroad tracks. They do have walkways available to get to the beach, but it is not ideal. The best part about hotel was $20 per night parking. We do not recommend to stay at this hotel, or around that area of Dana point.

The property has a very good location and it is safe and quiet. The rooms definitely need updating w new furniture and paint. The furniture is also sparse in the living room. It also has the worst breakfast of any place I’ve stayed . If I was going to be in the area again I would stay in another location.

This property is old and needs cleaning of sofas and bed linen, etc. I am attaching a photo of the pillow case in our room. I asked for more towels on second day of reservation and was told they were out, to please wait after they come out of dryer and they will bring them. I also asked for cleaning of the room on second day and was told, they do not provide that service for a two night stay. It was our first time at this facility and our last. It was disappointing to spend all that money on a junior suite with ocean view in that condition. I hope this review will help them improve this facility.

We would stay here again. The two king beds was the reason we booked at this location. Room was spacious which was nice for our family of 4. Room had an ocean view, Unfortunately the AC unit was incredibly loud and would wake us up throughout the night and the breakfast was pretty weak, those kept me from eating it 5 stars.
