For the price, the Marina Inn was satisfactory, but definitely no-frills and somewhat rundown (though clean). The Dana Point Harbor is undergoing a full renovation and this property is among those that will eventually be torn down to make space for two new hotels. The staff was friendly and helpful, but not always available at the front desk. We had to switch rooms mid-stay due to the heater not working in our first room. The hotel offers a decent selection in the breakfast room. Parking is very convenient though costs $15 per day.

Five star location but 2.5 star hotel rooms. The hotel is scheduled to be demolished and rebuilt as a 4-5 star later in 2025.

The location is the big selling point as the hotel itself was cold, there were no phones in the whole hotel that guests could use, the breakfast was all bread/oatmeal products and the cleanliness was below par. Upon arrival there was a ditey face cloth on the floor of the one elevator, and the next morning it was still there, even after a staff member helped to replace a broken desk chair, pushed it aside with her foot and kept going. With cold overnight temperatures and no central heat (or it wasn't turned on), the hallways felt like fridges. The bedding was two sheets and the thinnest blanket and even asking for a thicker blanket it wasn't sufficient bedding to avoid running the noisy heat all night. The staff knew this was the blankets were provided with ear plugs. If you're unlucky enough to face inland, there is no sun or warmth on that side of the building. But the location of the property itself was awesome. Not sure I could stay again in a winter month unless I packed bedding from home.

Decent lodgings at a lower price. The hotel is definitely dated, furniture outdated and in some disrepair. The elevator (only three floors) looks like it’s 1982 and s l o w . . . enough to make you think you might get stuck. . . makes some unsettling mechanical noises. The bed and room both comfy enough. I couldn’t get the television to work, so spent a quiet evening reading. Hot water was fine, coffee and microwave in the room. The bedspread smelled ever so slightly off. Can’t put my finger on it. Heater heated. Good sized room. The breakfast was simple . . . Waffles, cereals, bagels, fruit, oatmeal, coffee. Adequate. It was absolutely serviceable, so I would stay again. Because I got what I paid for. Did not need frills.
