Tons of charm
This was a lovely boutique hotel. It was not in pristine condition... but had a lot of charm. I love that each room is different and LOVED the artwork in my room, which added a splash of inspiration. I was only there on a quick trip, but the location is fabulous, less than a block to the beach, shops, restaurants - walking distance.

Budget Hotel
Roof closed too early and opened too late. Snack breakfast was too simple. AC was loud and obnoxious. Free parking was a plus I guess. Bed was okay.

Our stay was amazing. The staff was friendly and helpful and the hotel itself is in a great location. Tons of shopping and restaurants within a 10 minute walk and only a 20 minute walk/5 minute drive to the downtown of Laguna Beach

Smaller than expected with few amenities.
Our room was small. We had an end unit so we could see the ocean from the third floor and you could open the windows for fresh air. The toilet was one of those industrial flushing kind you see at stadiums. There was little countertop area so only one person could use the sink area at a time. There is no pool and parking is off property up the street. The view from the rooftop bar/restaurant is nice but the food is mediocre.

Repeat Cuatomer- great views
This is as our second stay here. The rooftop bar is amazing with views to die for. The cafe downstairs serves up live piano music on Sat night so that was a plus. I like the old decor and atmosphere here. We’ll be back.
