Great value and location in Laguna Beach

You can't beat the location, the price and SoCal beach vibes this property offers. It's what a beach hotel should be. Clean, convenient, charming and functional. We really appreciated our small kitchenette, large spacious room, ocean view and incredible walkable location to all the beaches, restaurants and shops without being in the middle of the chaos. Far enough away from main beach, but not too far.

Some rooms not great

We booked a standard room. Unfortunately, some of the standard rooms are better than others. We were on the first floor behind the pool, a walkway and lots of pillars so it felt like we were in a dungeon and weren't able to keep the curtains open without being in full view of anyone walking by. The curtains were also too long so we had to prop them up so they didn't block the air conditioner which was already barely adequate. The bathroom was cramped and did not have a place for toiletries or a place to keep towels accessible. The dresser had a broken drawer and the room was generally dated and needed some improvements. The valet parking was a nightmare and far too expensive. Check in went well but checkout took forever and they did not provide the promised receipt. The location was convenient but I've stayed in far better places in Laguna.

Because we booked through Expedia we were given a very crappy room. Keys didn’t work after multiple key cards were issued. Phone didn’t work so we couldn’t call front desk. Curtain covered the air conditioner. We complained and were moved. Manager didn’t want to talk to me about it. Only one of three front desk people seemed to care. Will never stay there again. Every thing is worn out and needs to be replaced. Bulldoze the place and start over. Only positive were the people at the valet parking.

The only issue that we had was the card key to our room sometimes not working. We were told that it was very sensitive to water, sand and other electronics. We had to exchange keys several times but other than that we had a great time. Shops and restaurants were in walking distance

Horrendously dated property with unsafe conditions... lights going out, couch collapsing in the middle of the night with a child, front desk point blank lying about issues not being reported... restaurant on the property is wonderful with all their staff but you don't need to stay at the property to go to the restaurant. There are plenty of other hotel options in the area! Enjoy your vacation elsewhere! Those days are too precious to spend them trying to fix issues.

The website was very deceiving. Pictures showed a modern updated hotel. We were put in an old building that lacked decor and the balcony was over a noisy alley. The sound of air conditioners from surrounding buildings was very overpowering. All in all it felt very over priced. The only upside was that it was roomy and close to downtown

We've been going to & loving this hotel for16 years- a home away from home, which sadly has descended into disrepair and rude chaos. The property itself is so physically run down, it's shocking. Rust & peeling paint everywhere, moldy smells, broken furniture. The pool area is beyond disgusting now, it seems no one cares at all anymore. The gate and railings and pool fixtures are dripping rust, they turned the heat off in the pool (it was always kept at a pleasant temperature but not anymore), the fun game area is abandoned. No towels to be had without jumping through hoops. The beach service? Wow. So rude. We were lied to that there was no service the first day due to the tide being dangerously high (this was in fact, not true, as it had peaked 90 minutes before we asked for service), yet there were plenty of people out there. They just appeared to not have staff to go and get us chairs. The building we were in was the newest, and even that showed serious signs of wear (don't even ask about the elevator). We hit our heads repeatedly on the too low overhang that you had to pass through to the elevator (no sign warning of the low ceiling). The front desk was rude, and unwelcoming to us. The partial ocean view our room boasted was visible ONLY if you stood in the doorway with the door open. Otherwise, our view was of a very loud fan on the roof of the building next door. We left feeling like the people just could care less about us in spite of receiving robo-texts to check in.

With a balcony room literally over the waves, we could not have asked for a better view. The room was spacious and comfortable. The two restaurants on site served delicious food and the staff were friendly and professional. The half-mile walk to downtown and the Pageant of the Master's site were easy to negotiate. Just a few bumps in the stay. The phone and bathroom fan did not work (neither were deal breakers). The air conditioning unit next door is mounted on our balcony and was rather loud. (Similarly, our unit's AC was probably very loud for our next door neighbors.) The one sticky issue was amenities on the beach. Since it is first come, first severed, we went down early to set up our lounge chairs and umbrellas. Since it was still overcast, we went back to our room to wait for the weather and when we return to our chairs, someone had taken them. There was not way to indicate that they were reserved. I hope Pacific Edge sees this and sets up a better system. For future stays we will make sure to leave some person items so there is an indication we are returning. Overall, a very nice stay.

The Property Location is Ideal for laguna Beach. you can easily walk everywhere. The hotel is right on the beach and it has a beach that you can go for very long walks on. The bed is comfy and its perfect for a family stay. The towels are not the best but it gets the job done. I believe its a great deal for what you pay for
