So close to the beach! We were able to walk to restaurants, pier and other places from this hotel. Staff was friendly and rooms were clean. We could even get beach towels and boogie boards daily at no extra cost.

I like this location to the Newport Beach pier. The hotel is clean and staff are friendly too. Only breakfast needs to be improved, sometimes no fruits. Will come again here

10/10 Exceptional

Staff are very friendly. Warren is so nice. The room and the bathroom are very clean. Definitely going stay here again for a quick getaway. Thank you for the warm welcome.
Mia, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice if not dated looking motor lodge. The location is great and the rooms are comfortable and clean. The front desk staff and manager are very nice and gave great service. The location is great if you want to spend some time at the beach, cruise around on bikes, surf or paddle in the bay. There's a great selection of restaurants and bars nearby ranging from very fancy to casual.

10/10 Exceptional

A great spot for smaller families looking for a spot near the beach. Beach Towel, umbrella, chair, and sand/surf toys were available for a free check out. That boogie board really made my beach trip memorable! The staff were all super helpful and accommodating. I loved staying here and could not recommend it more.

Love it . We really like this hotel. Definitely we will come back next year.
