"I really liked the vibe of Laguna hotel and would stay there again. I feel like the hospitality is from another era. If you don't mind walking a bit, there is a nice park that stretches all the way to the beach without too much walking along streets and so it was nice to have a long weekend with nice strolls instead of running up the uber bill. Walkable for restaurants as well."

"This was our second visit to this hotel. We really love the location, the breakfast buffet, and the friendly and helpful staff. Parking is a challenge, we were out all day everyday and when we returned the hotel parking lot was usually completely full. We were only able to park onsite 3 out 7 nights. The breakfast buffet is excellent and the staff were top notch. Everyone but one lady was very kind and welcoming."

"The room was clean, the bed was comfortable and I slept well. There was no shaver socket in the bathroom, no body lotion and no facial tissues. The radiator heating was not on, but for a single night it was tolerable. Had I been staying longer I would have requested a fan heater for this North-facing room."
