No beach view. Stairs to pool so not usable for people with physical disabilities. Staff was useless. They put me and my sister, who’s in a wheelchair, in a room too small for her wheelchair. They knew about the wheelchair.

Room was clean and spacious, but it was a adjacent to the street and there was significant noise.

We paid extra for a suite with a fireplace, but the fireplace didn't work. When I asked staff about it, they said something about the fireplaces being disabled in warmer months. It was February, and it the weather was cold and wet.

WiFi was horrible, basically unusable for even email.

You have to spend a good deal of time fine tuning the shower faucet to get warm water. It easily fluctuate between hot and cold. The bathtub was deep making it difficult and perhaps dangerous for less mobile people. Paint chips on wall corners and furnitures, but we were in the 'new' section of the hotel. A $39 fee was charged to my card without a peep or heads up from the front staff. I suspect this was a 'resort fee'. Traveling in America is no longer fun. Going forward, I will resist and refuse to go down this 'late stage capitalism' money grab.

We stayed in north building and the room was pretty ran down. Cracked floor and shower tile, broken cabinets, flimsy faucets, tv that stopped working first night, squeaky bed.. just to name a few. Walls were paper thin and we could hear people talk and sneeze. Complimentary breakfast consisted of coffee, bagels and a bowl of apples. The pool had some garden debris in it and to get there from north building we had to walk on the street around the block and then through south building lobby.
On the positive side - the location was awesome, walking distance to downtown shops and restaurants, lots of galleries and the beach.
Staff was nice and sheets were clean.

The staff was friendly. Location was good for us. Base rate was decent for a room near the ocean. The pool looked nice and clean, but we did not need a pool. Rooms were average. Nothing spectacular. The bed and pillows were comfortable. Things to improve: *Make people aware of the $35+tax per night parking ahead of time *Have coffee made in the lobby. I went twice in one morning to get a cup and it was empty. It was empty the next morning. *Provide a little more than bagels, bread and cereal for breakfast.

Although it was very reasonable priced I don’t plan on staying there again. Paolo was not very helpful. He booked our room on one level. Told us where to park then gave us a key for a different room on a different level. I specifically called beforehand to make sure our room had a refrigerator and microwave. And when he switched our rooms, I asked him if the other room had a microwave and he said yes, and it didn’t and at that point I was done with him, so I didn’t worry about it. Fortunately, they did have a microwave in the lobby. Also, our room was excessively damp and had a very weird smell, and all of our clothes smelled like the room when we came back home I had to wash both suitcases.

I like the hotel and it’s location in Laguna Beach. The room was decent but the door handle looked like it was ready to fall off at any moment. We upgraded to a room with a fireplace, but we’re super disappointed when the fireplace barely worked. There were no flames, just a very low blue glow. I asked at checkout about getting discount since it was the reason for upgrading and said they would get back to me about it. I have heard nothing back from them. Even more disappointed at this point. The bed was comfortable.

Great hotel for location, service and cleanliness. Second time I’ve stayed here. But the rooms are now in need of a refresh (in need of updating) as well the electricity (electrical outlets are so loose they won’t hold the plug enough to charge various items.) However the staff were outstanding, helpful and friendly.

Laguna Beach Respite

The highligt is the location is great. Withink walking distance to the places I like to go. The hotel is more like a Howard Johnsons Motel. The rooms are clean but dated and a bit worn. The common areas are same.Easy to get in and out. Nice deep pool and for the most part very quiet considering its proximity to PCH. Also, I estimate the hotel was 20-30% occupancy during my stay so noise level may go up with higher occupancy. Staff is awesome helpful and friendly. My slightly off season rate was about $700 for 3 nights which is not bad for the location. I would probably stay there again

Nice grounds and lobby. Our room smelled, there were dead bugs and hair in the bed. It was so awful we asked to cancel as soon as we got there. Staff was nice and let us cancel. Great area, shops and restaurants nearby. There are actually 3 properties and the pictures on Expedia didn't clearly distinguish. You should go directly to the hotels' website for clarity. The adjacent North building is new and might be nice. The South Building is dilapidated where we were booked. A boutique nearby said the hotel was a dump. The South building really needs a major facelift.

Not for families

This hotel was not a good fit for us. One there are no elevators to get to the north building rooms. We had to carry so much up very steep stairs. Then the door was frosted glass and didn’t block any light so our room did not get dark And the outdoor light was blaring into our room all night. The room also had a huge step between the bed that was such a dangerous feature.

Love this quaint old fashion hotel. The greenery adds to its character. The room and the hotel grounds were clean. The location is great and short walk to Main Beach. However, finding someone at the front desk was hit or miss whenever we'd go there.. For the price it was a bargain. Overall, I'd definitely stay there again

I liked the nice location and the spaciousness of the room. I didn't like the steep stairs and non-accessibility for people with physical challenges. If there are no elevators, ramps or escalators, then have staff always ready to help with luggages. Help was very slow so I missed my timing on my schedule. Staff was friendly though, so just a reminder to be more prompt in their service. Otherwise, everything else was great.

I don’t usually complain about places we stay because 99% of the time they’re wonderful, this place was in an excellent location. The rooms were nice enough, a little outdated. But what occurred both nights we stayed there and after talking with other people staying there also Was that kids were running around outside at midnight and after yelling, goofing off, these were young kids I would say under 12. When my husband finally got up at midnight and asked them where their parents were they said they were in their rooms so not only were these kids loud, but they were totally unsupervised both nights. We had talked with other people that had said that it had been going on for a few nights. People at the front desk were very apologetic but young themselves and didn’t really have any answers for us. I probably will not stay here again.

Old hotel charm good for noisy families

Cute hotel at a great location, but not a romantic getaway. The rooms all face each other surrounding the pool area so voices of people talking outside of their rooms were amplified. Lots of families and noise. Unsupervised children were running around and making noise at 11:30pm. At 1:45am, some of the other guests a few rooms down from mine were talking loudly and laughing. No one answered when I called the front desk, so I ended up asking the other guests if they would please move their conversation inside their room. My room was clean, but could be updated. The bed sheets were like sandpaper and felt cheap. I expected more for $500 a night and don't plan to return.

Underwhelming in Laguna

The overall condition of hotel is really poor. Very old and deteriorating. Peeling paint on courtyard and in bathroom . No security on exterior doors from parking lot. Beds were ok. WiFi spotty. Pool was dirty on bottom and lack of nice lounge chairs. The resort fee is silly as it’s not even close to a resort . That being said the beds were clean and the bathrooms were clean ! I think the floors felt a bit dirty. The location is great but other than that to call this a boutique hotel is misleading. I feel what I paid for this stay was way overpriced and do feel cheated . But now I know better . I would not stay here again and will tell people to avoid it.

I loved the room, it was big, clean and comfortable. The only complaint I had was there was a woman next to our room who seemed quite unstable. She woke us up at 6 a.m. due to some yelling and screaming. She did this for about an hour, so of course it was difficult to sleep during this time or go back to sleep. She was also yelling the night before, though she did stop around 11. Other than that, it was a great place to stay and the location was perfect.
