"Property was very pleasant overall & staff were very nice. However, 2 things could be improved: 1) The pillows were too soft. Firm pillows would have made it more comfortable for us. 2) The location was near an airport & noise from flights was disturbing. If the windows were more sound-proof, our experience would have been even better."

"Breakfast was good. Lots of options and tons of seating. Great staff. Very friendly. "

"Free breakfast was very limited to cold cereal a few small muffins, bagels and fruit. There was a waffle maker which we didn’t use. Coffee was fine. Hot tub was closed the first night, probably for maintenance, because it was open the second day. Pool looked inviting but we didn’t get a chance to use it either day. Biggest turn off was the ant invasion in our bathroom the 1st night and the huge dying cockroach we found inside our room near the bathroom door when we returned to the room the 2nd night. Both were taken care of by the guest. FYU, we stayed in the ADA room 221, which is on the north side of the property facing the main road, which is fairly noisy due to traffic. Meanwhile the staff were friendly and efficient and the other guests we encountered all seemed friendly as well. Bottom line, Dana Point Marina Inn is old and tired, but it is still a great location, with a laid back beach vibe. The good news is that the entire harbor area is in the middle of a major renovation project that will be completed in 2028. So, many of the old shops and restaurants are closed. However, once this massive renovation project is complete the “new” hotel(s) shops and restaurants will be worth the wait and an extended visit to this charming and historic coastal community."

"Amazing location. Beach view was stunning from room. Absolutely loved this property. Perfect location in Laguna Beach. Zero complaints, only gratitude for being able to stay there for a beautiful weekend."

"Check in desk rude and abrupt and unwelcoming. Took 30 minutes to check in with only one guest ahead of us. Lost my luggage and panicked trying to dig through their storage room trying to find them! Otherwise, lovely property. "

"Pictures on hotels.com were of the other best western in town- it was not on the beach. Room was okay. It faced a very busy loud street with ill fitting doors- basically it was like a motel from the past. Needs updating!"

"The place is cute and location is great. The coffee machine in our room wasn’t working and the Netflix on the tv wasn’t working either. It was only one night so we didn’t bother to have them fix it. Just dont think it was worth the price. Prop not going back."

"Breakfast was fresh. Vanilla flavored creamer !"

"Staff was amazing, especially the valet guys, Casey and Chris!!! This is most likely our new go to spot in Laguna. "
