Clean room, but had some mold/mildew on the ceiling area. Cleaning/maintenance staff was kind of loud, yelling to each other. Great boardwalk location; you're a half a block from beach and boardwalk. Clean bathroom. Pool was clean. It's not perfect, but I would stay here again. Great value spot.

Convenient to boardwalk and beach. Room was clean with excellent room service. Beyond that the clientele was partying all day and night (it was senior week). No attempt by staff to moderate.

The hotel is an excellent affordable option. Room is clean and has all the essentials. Bathroom and bed are clean. Lobby is in building next door - the check in and out process was extremely efficient and fast, they are highly organized so this was very easy. Free parking + WiFi. Area in a quieter part of OC yet a quick walk to the busier parts of OC. Beach a block away. I would highly recommend this hotel as a great option in OC!

Taylor

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The property is very dated and the room had a smell of mildew. The worst part was that the air conditioner in our room was not circulating. We had the staff come 3 separate times of the course of our 3 day stay to try to fix the issue with failure every time. It left us trying to sleep in a smelly hot room. When the air is cooler outside and it’s 80-90 degrees than it is inside the room- that is a problem.

No staff on site , had to go to the next hotel, staff hung up on me, the phone in the room doesn’t connect to any staff members, no ice at the ice machine. No towels n rags, had to walk next hotel that they owned also every time we needed something, because they had no staff , ppl did whatever they wanted, smoking weed, loud music above us.
