Best Western Capistrano Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Seems to be a target of the sheriffs dept.Aside from that my stay was excellent"

Laguna Cliffs Marriott Resort and Spa

2/10 Terrible

"The hotels location is about the only thing it has going for it. The price you have to pay to be in a construction zone is more than it is worth the staff minus the valet staff was something you would expect from a motel 6 and charged the price of staying at a ritz Carlton which I would choose if rather than be placed from one inadiquite room to another. The rooms are crammed together and the size was that of a closet. Anyone thinking of this Marriott should consider otherwise and I’m extremely dissatisfied with the overall experience. I hope that they will get their act together as I enjoy most every Marriott stay I have had."

Capistrano Surfside Inn

8/10 Good

"This hotel is located right across from the beach. My room was spacious and had a full kitchen. I had some issues with my cable box, but the staff was able to resolve them. My room was on the backside of hotel and I was above the laundry room which wasn't the best, but other than that the room was great!"

Hilton Garden Inn Dana Point Doheny Beach

4/10 Poor

"AThe room was dirty, wall unit came off the wall nails exposed, picture frame on the ground and nails exposed, spiders and webs everywhere. Couldnt use our patio furniture because they were covered in spiders and dirty, hotel does not offers free water, tea, or coffee, had several nights where they was no parking even though we paid $45 a night for parking, they charges my card multiple times even though I paid cash up front, front staff was not nice and one even rolled her eyes several times after I asked for the manager, spiders in the bathroom, towels and toilet paper was not stocked, we had to ask for some, drawers were filthy dirty, including the fridge. The only person that gave amazing customer service and was so sweet was the lady that served us breakfast in the morning. Food was good."
