Reached out to the staff to get early check in (extra $50) for my two night stay and they told me I can come at 1 PM day of. I show up at 1:15 with the staff not even at the front desk and the door locked. Finally got a hold of someone just for them to tell me they can’t be there and I have to wait until 3 PM to check in despite what I was told the day before. I had a wedding to attend to, so I had to get ready in my car in the parking lot. They came an hour later to which I was already gone. Once checked in later that night, my hotel room was not great. Hairs all over in the shower, & all over the floor. Besides that the place was OK. Definitely get what you pay for.

Joyce and her husband were extremely helpful! especially since I had seven rooms reserved for my daughter‘s wedding. Communication was great!. Rooms were clean and the amenities were very nice. Only issue was floor was dirty, and I tried to clean it with a washcloth, but then it still remained dirty so bring slippers. Other than that, this is my go to hotel in San clemente for sure!

Great for a brief stay in San Clemente! Had an awesome weekend with the love of my life here. The amenities aren't exactly plentiful here, but the staff was helpful, the room was clean, and it was perfect for a budget weekend trip. The A/C also runs very cold, which was a definite plus!

Adorable little property! Joyce was so kind and helpful. Visited the area for two nights for a family event. My room was small but perfect! Clean and had nice touches….pump bottles of shampoo, conditioner and body wash that smelled great. Pump hand soap and lotion at the sink. Small fridge and hair dryer. Good size TV and the AC unit worked great. Room was clean and more updated than I honestly expected. There is a community kitchen room open from 6am-10pm. Keurig with coffees, and creamers. Microwave and hot plate and real dishes to use. Out front was a nice seating area on artificial grass. Just a cool place to chill out. Property was so quiet too. Close to the pier and eateries and convenience stores. Would go back for sure!

The Califia Inn is a wonderful, family-owned property in San Clemente! Clean & spacious rooms that are well-appointed (nice shower, good water pressure, comfortable bed). Has modern convenience with the mid-century beachy charm. My room was quiet and found it very relaxing! There is a shared kitchen area for coffee, sink, dishes & microwave access. Nice little courtyard sitting area in front of hotel. The owners are great! Quick to answer any questions and offer local advice. My stay was 4 days & I could have easily stayed longer, very comfortable for a solo traveler! I look forward to staying again on my next trip.

Great location- not far from freeway, minutes to the beach, pier, train station. Short drive to downtown San Clemente. Also near trolley stop for access to many local businesses, beach/pier. Quick walk to a few local restaurants for breakfast, lunch, and good tacos!

We stayed at the Calafia Inn because of the proximity to a wedding reception nearby at the La Ventura. The staff was friendly, and the hotel itself was charming, clean and unique in character with attention to detail. There is not a coffee pot in the room nor is there a microwave, but there is a kitchen with some appliances. For coffee I would liked to have other options besides Keurig pods. The TV seems to be set a certain level so noise from an adjacent room will not be an issue. As other reviewers have noted, parking is tight but feels secure. Overall, I highly recommend the Calafia Inn if passing through San Clemente. Also, if looking for food try Hapa J Hawaiian food down the street.

The owners were super nice to me when I checked in. I was driving a truck and needed guidance into a space so they came out and gave me their space and directed me into it. They also told me options for dinner and breakfast within walking distance. The bed was comfy, the TV was large and the surroundings were pretty quiet over night. Great spot for a easy overnight stay.

We were so pleasantly surprised about everything, especially the proprietors Dave and Joyce. This property is a typical, old 1950s Motor Inn on the old Camino Real. Make no mistake, it is not near the beach, but it has an intended “surfers vibe” and sits right on the Green line of the free San Clemente trolley line that runs every 15 minutes to the Califino Beach or the San Clemente pier and all points in between.
The room was super clean, parking was right out front, and the proprietors went way out of their way to accommodate us. There were several restaurants and bars within walking distance. We highly recommend Hapa J’s for the evening. For breakfast DO NOT MISS Roses restaurant next door.
The property has an open kitchen room that features a coffee-pod coffee maker, a small ice machine, microwave, and several coffee amenities. There is a refrigerator in each room but no microwave.
This is a no-frills place but had a great character and we enjoyed it immensely.

The bed sits on a metal frame and any time you touch it, it makes a loud thunder like sound. Very annoying. In order to use the shower you have to get all the way in to turn the water on so you have to hold the shower head or get hit with cold water. The shower head is about 7 feet high so not convenient for short people. The way the shower doors are mounted resulted in the floor getting soaked. But the room was very clean and check in was easy.

The proprietors are so friendly and welcoming, and the rooms are very clean and pleasant. This is my second stay, and it was just as good as the first. The shared kitchen is an added bonus, and is well equipped. It's also very close to the beach trail, so ideal for runners or hikers. The only slight negative is the proximity to the freeway, which is noisy, so if that bothers you, bring some earplugs. The location is great, and the parking is plentiful.
