Very Good

What a great place to stay, just a block from the beach and rode my bike to dozens of places to eat. Clean and comfortable room and the staff were very helpful.
Highly recommended.
Great place by the beach - 100 steps from your room to the shore. The staff was so pleasant and accommodating they made our visit memorable. Beach chairs and towels available and great coffee/pastry and lunch spot right up the street. Easy walk to the nightlife of Newport Beach pier area. Four day stay and never needed a car. Will 100% return!
Overall good experience, great location in my opinion. Just steps from the beach. I feel their parking fee is excessive and their stalls are very narrow. The lobby was warm inside as if they were trying to save power.
Second time staying here. Their prices make it affordable.
Staff very unorganized, parking is a joke, cancelled room and went elsewhere

The staff seemed stressed and didn’t know what they were doing. Rooms weren’t ready including mine. Door codes not working. Room not clean enough with loose hair strands on the bed spread upon arrival. I only liked the location.

Be prepared for noise - both inside but as most rooms overlook the Pacific Coastal Highway - it feels like sleeping on the sidewalk if on a lowing floor.
