I'm glad that I read some reviews prior to purchasing because it kept me aware of the simplicity of this hotel. I don't think the room was bad by any means but not an upscale hotel either. It's perfect for just being there to sleep and having a convenient place to stay in Laguna. I definitely think the 3rd floor recommendation was helpful because it had great views and the AC units weren't bad. I wish there were chairs on the balcony and that we got washcloths but otherwise it was fine.

Clean, modern and cannot beat the location

Excellent spot right across from the beach. Older, revamped hotel to make your stay feel clean and modern. We did have a fire alarm blasting in the middle of the night which made us all leave the hotel and stand on the street at 3am, but other than that a pleasant and extremely affordable stay (guessing hotels.com price glitch, but hey, will take it!!)

The hotel is very well located, with places to eat nearby and the free tourist bus at the door that takes you from one end of Laguna Beach to the other. Check in is done fully online and you just arrive, park without contacting anyone and go to your room. Rooms are comfortable, not luxurious.

If you are going to stay on the first floor — beware. It's like an expensive prison. Bare walls, you feel like you are underground, the lights don't stay on, etc. The bed had crumbs in it. The side tables had a bunch of stains. I understand this hotel is one of a cheapest option for the Laguna area, but the establishment could put in just a *small* amount of effort to make the rooms nice. Will not be coming back.
