The hotel is cute on the outside but it’s not like the pictures. Check in was at 4 and we didn’t get our room until 4:20. The girl thought she was doing us a favor by waiving our deposit because we had to wait for our room. We got an old room that was humid and musty. The carpet felt gross to walk on. The sink when you turned on the water smelled like rotten egg. Good thing we only stayed there one night. The free breakfast was the only good thing about the hotel. But like another person said “we were catfished” with the pictures of renovated rooms. They should post more of the non renovated rooms and also state that when you book that your booking either a renovated room or old room.

Staff was friendly. Room was musty, however, it was clean, bedding was clean. TV was small. It had a fridge and microwave! Shower walls needed cleaning and so did the shower head. It had calcium deposits on it. The property is nice. But it is in need of a makeover. Overall, it was an OK stay. 7/10

I normally don't write reviews especially bad ones. I have no problem paying over $300 a night. However, the room smelled really bad and it needed a deep cleaning. This was more like $99 a night situation. The website advertised complementary breakfast, but I didn't see anything but it didn't matter because I left as soon as it was daylight outside.

Tried to check in with a reservation and the woman asked the front desk wearing sunglasses said “we have no rooms”. Told her we had a reservation and she repeated herself. Finally got out of her the room was not ready. Bad location, bad service.

I think there’s an updated portion of this hotel that’s nicer—I unfortunately did not get a room in that part of the building. Hairs in the shower, damp carpet, and very thin walls. The Best Western down the road in Dana Point is nicer for roughly the same price.

This is my go to hotel when staying in San Clemente, easy access from Caltrans station, walking distance to the beach, hiking trails, restaurants, outlets, and nearby free trolley stops to go to the pier, Dana Point, and other points of interest. The staff are also so friendly and nice. Erin, Anthony, and Derrick were so amazing and helpful during my most recent stay.

Ants in the room including the bed. Same for an alternate room. Although no fire, the fire alarm went off which shut down the elevators. We are handicapped and on the second floor. Had to call the paramedics to help us down the stairs. Limited staff, generally filthy. They stated they would credit our card. So far no credit to the card.

Dirty. Dated. Duped with fake photos?? Maybe we had the only room in hotel that looked nothing like the stock photos, We got to our room and it was extremely dated, dirty dark green carpet that’s probably been there since the hotel was first built, a strange damp smell in the entire room, a long dark hair under the pillow (not sure if they actually changed the sheets), and it felt dirty and dingy. We left and checked out within 10 minutes of seeing the room. We are locals and have stayed at older beachy inns before, but this this was even veif

Do not recommend. We walked into our room and walked right back out because the photos are deceiving. The bathrooms were dirty. The carpets were stained and the room did not look like what it did in the photos. I also unfortunately booked my dad and stepmom at the same hotel and they said they were able to deal with the room but the next morning they woke up and there were ants in the bathroom

Unfortunately, we had bugs in the room in multiple occasions and the carpet smelled like urine. It really smelled anytime the ac unit went off. Some staff were great. One was greeting people with sun glasses on inside the office, which seemed strange. The ladies serving food were kind. Our room on the 3rd floor was not updated as shown on your website with the pretty black and white wall paper etc. it was dated. Green patterned carpet. Room was only serviced once in 4 nights/5days. Parking seemed good.
