Nice remodeled hotel with a European flair. A little noisy close to the highway with road noise. Close easy 5 minute walk to the ocean beach. All in all I’d stay there again.
Across the hwy from the beach was easy enough access. This area is a 45 minute walk or 6 min drive from newport pier where most of the restaurants and shops are. I preferred being slightly away from that while still being able to access Eat Chow, Tide Poole, Vacancy Coffee and Cappy's with short walks.
Staff was friendly and helpful! Beds were comfy, but showers could use an upgrade. Overall great experience :)

Great customer service. Comfortable bed. Spacious room. We had a great stay!
Overall a good experience. The hotel has restaurants and mini-markets very close with many more options available within 10 minute walk. Beach is a very short walk away. Only issue we had was someone pulled the fire alarm at 5am.
The staff that was there was very accommodating, the room smells good, but not cheap air freshener kind of good, Its more or an herb, or a flower maybe, smooth and friendly for my allergic nose. Theres a restaurant next door that opens early and close late and they have good choice of food as well. this hotel is very convenient, although you can hear your neighbor, I will still choose it over any other hotel nearby.
Good well priced hotel near the beach no frills just good location. I liked the keypad entry as opposed to dealing with keycards.

Liked: Staff & service
Room wasn’t super clean, but we only stayed one night so we powered through. Great location to the beach, simple walk across the street! Beds were comfy but room was very basic. The gentleman who checked us in was very nice. Parking lot is easy to find but tiny!
Overall good experience, great location in my opinion. Just steps from the beach. I feel their parking fee is excessive and their stalls are very narrow. The lobby was warm inside as if they were trying to save power.
Second time staying here. Their prices make it affordable.
Was a quick stay & was wonderful . Loved how close we were to the beach. The heated pool is small but good enough for some laps. Loved your lounge area.
The room was clean and stylish. Staff was very friendly and accomodating to our needs. Only fault would be the water pressure and temperature could've been better.
Nice place to stay and super close to the beach! Being able to walk to the beach was the best part. The rooms are simple but they have everything you need. It’s not a luxury hotel but a cheap way to be close to the beach. Worth it!!
