"In December the streets in Dana Point come alive with the spirit of Christmas! The East facing room overlooks construction that starts at 5 goes until 6. No pressure in the showers. Plug in the tub broken. No room service in 5 days. Ghost lamp and TV that keep turning themselves off. Thin walls. Heavy, loud doors that slam shut. Filthy floors. Not bleached linen. Renovated hotel coming soon!"
"We stayed at this hotel for 1 night to visit San Juan Capistrano. The area is nice and clean with easy access to stores, food, freeway, and ocean. Our room /hotel was clean, staff were friendly and responsive, and we appreciated the free breakfast in the A.M. The parking structure can feel a little cramped when you have 2 cars passing, however not significant enough to impact my experience. Overall a positive stay."
"The location is nice because the hotel is right in front of the beach, although access to beach entry is still a little ways down. I stayed in the 1 bedroom suite with an ocean view and the room was like a little 1 bedroom suite apartment. It was comfortable and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The kitchen even had plenty of dishes and some cookware. The only downside is that it can use some very needed updates and repairs. The sofa in our room was very dated and not very clean....
"Fantastic location, great amenities for everyone and super well priced for the incredibly spacious suite/apartment studio-style rooms. This property is a 10/10"
