Disappointed
Lobby's floor was cracked/ old and dirty, as well as carpet. The room chairs had a very dirty covers, wanted to take off but chair was worse, with stains. Didn't feel comfortable sleeping in the bed. Room was small, t.v was very small. No Parking available inside site. Parked on street. I was very disappointed.

A great spot for smaller families looking for a spot near the beach. Beach Towel, umbrella, chair, and sand/surf toys were available for a free check out. That boogie board really made my beach trip memorable! The staff were all super helpful and accommodating. I loved staying here and could not recommend it more.

Nice if not dated looking motor lodge. The location is great and the rooms are comfortable and clean. The front desk staff and manager are very nice and gave great service. The location is great if you want to spend some time at the beach, cruise around on bikes, surf or paddle in the bay. There's a great selection of restaurants and bars nearby ranging from very fancy to casual.

From the time we stepped in the front door, Warren made us feel like we were home. He was very welcoming and had so much to share about the area. The hotel is small and we lived that. There was a on old-school elevator in the property that was fun to experience, while we usually took the stairs just because. Beach supplies are available to use free of charge if needed. Parking is limited, but welcome to Newport Beach Hotel only has about 8-10 spots for $20 each a night, but we just parked in the street and walked or rented a bike to get around. Very peaceful and nice place to stay. We’ll be back for sure.
