Great location. Friendly and helpful staff, cozy amenities. Felt like a home away from home. We've stayed here many times over the past several years and we always come back when we're spending time near Crystal Cove and the Sawdust Festival. Highly recommend.

The hotel room was very nice. The location was outstanding. Sal, the owner, was so nice and personable. We will definitely stay there again. I love the fact that you can take the trolley to the Pageant of the Masters, only a block away and down a little hill. The only thing I wish they had was a full length mirror in the room.

The perfect location for going to the beach & attending a wedding at Crescent Bay Point Park. Sal was so welcoming, accommodating & incredibly helpful with checking-in! Our ocean view room was updated & very clean. We had a wonderful stay & highly recommend it.

The location was amazing and we had such a great time! The room could use a few refreshing updates, but that’s pretty typical for a beachfront spot in such a prime location. Being so close to the beach made it completely worth it, and we really enjoyed our stay.

Arrived right at 10pm and owner was gracious to let us check in and get situated. It was dark so didn't see water but could hear it. Everything closed in town except the grab and go. Close to hotel to walk to and grab some snacks.

I reserved this hotel because of reviews. It is ok but not great. A/C was not working well. Staff was not very helpful. There was no house keeping or breakfast included despite advertised on expedia. Room was decent but not great. Pros: well located, easy access to the beach and sun umbrellas were available .

We stayed only one night and it was phenomenal! The innkeeper/owner (Sal) was beyond helpful, hospitable, and friendly. He provided lots of information on the place and surroundings. The room was very comfortable, clean, and had many extras like a fridge, keurig, microwave, bottled water (teas, coffee, plastic ware, beach towels, and extra water, available in the office). Outside there's a wonderful patio area, outdoor shower, and they have umbrellas, toys, and chairs, you can use for the beach. Great location and experience. Highly recommend!

If you plan to visit the city of Laguna Beach, it is totally advisable to stay here, the rooms are very spacious and very clean and in front desk, very friendly, besides the property is in a very calm and safe area and very serene of the main attractions, I recommend booking your room with sea view and for your car, do not worry, the parking lots are very safe.
