For the budget minded person this was a great place. Very comfortable bed, plenty of parking, very friendly helpful staff, super easy walking access to beach and local cafes. I would definitely come back. Essential needs provided.
It wasn't bad, just the bathroom/shower was a bit weak, bad pressure. A subtle smokey smell in room. Bed was great. Staff was nice. Think it should be a bit cheaper in low/rainy season during weekday like $90-$100 not $130 for this place.
We stayed here for one night, we chose the location as it was a reasonably short drive to LAX for an early flight, while still being an interesting place to visit, and that worked out well. The rooms are clean and comfortable but a bit old and faded. Compared to more modern chain hotels, you notice things like the lack of convenient power outlets. Noise from the highway was also a bit of an issue. But for a night it was basically fine. The rate was a bit higher than you would expect for what it is. We loved the neighborhood though, there was a really good restaurant next door and an amazing cafe a bit further down the street.
It’s definitely a motel that shows its age. Location is ok if you just want to go to the sand, but don’t plan on hitting Lido or the pier unless you grab an Uber or have your own car.
The staff was kind.
Room wasn’t like the photos. Our room was run down. The floor was fixed with duct tape (see pic). The bedding was worn (see pic). The bed mattress was not comfortable. You actually heard the springs when you moved around. The bathroom was old and the exhaust fan with the light had a bunch of dead bugs & dirt (see pic). Old furniture (see pic). The Tv picture was very cloudy and it was not clear.
It’s a motel, with the exception of the location, it’s kind of what you would expect. We thought it would be a little better than a typical motel (not hotel) with the nice pics, location and reviews, but we made the mistake of spending $120+ on a weekday-winter time stay at this place.
Won’t stay again.
What really wowed me about this place is how clean the rooms, the beds, the linen and the bathrooms are. What a pleasant and incredible surprise. If there's one gripe I have, is that it is on the PCH so the road noise can be bothersome at night, but it wasn't terrible. The fact that it is a few hundred feet away from the beach is icing on the cake while the price per night adds the cherry on the top for the overall value of the stay.
Right off the main drag, walking distance to restaurants and the beach. Building is old but well maintained, beds were comfortable.
There is a park right next door for the kiddos!
Clean rooms, walking distance to the beach and to multiple places to eat. The guy working the front desk was super nice and made the check in process very quick and easy getting in so late at night.
Everything I experienced during my 1 week stay vacation was perfect! I will definitely be staying with them during my vacation next summer!
Thanks to all of you that made my stay very pleasant & memorable.

This hotel is a perfect stay, walking distance from the beach. It is clean and maintained. For a budget-friendly, older hotel by the beach it is not dingy. Right behind the hotel is a park, so it’s great for kids. All the staff have been friendly and helpful. I would definitely stay here again. The location is great and I felt safe.
This is a great little place if you want to be near the beach. The rooms are very clean and updated. The people are incredibly nice. The website says there is breakfast but there is not though. Everything else is accurate though, and there is a very good place next door.
Rooms and service were amazing. Manager helped me with my stay and the phone support is on top of stuff. Front desk always picks up phone and the staff is really nice and considerate. Definitely recommend for a place right by the beach!
This motel is a gem! Rooms are clean and nice. The staff is really friendly and helpful. The lication is perfect. Right across the street from the beach and a bodega right next door. Awesome restaurants within walking distance!
I stayed here for a while. I got to know the staff which seemed to be courteous at first. But it was all a trick .They were just trying to charge my credit card for much needed repairs to this old hotel. They actually charged my credit card more than $300.00 for a new toilet that was probably at least 15 to 20 years old. I told them that they needed to check it out because it had a slow leak. They said that I broke it,charged my credit card over $300.00 for a new toilet, which at best cost $99.00 .Then when I complained,they kicked me out of the room.
DO NOT STAY HERE!
This is my motel of choice every time I come to Newport Beach. The prices are reasonable, near the beach, typically you can park right outside your room. Great restaurants nearby. Highly recommend!
