Clean room! Fresh. Glad there was no carpet. Balcony view was beautiful. Pool on smaller side but clean and well set up. Lobby was very small, not a lot going on there. Staff was friendly. Parking was straightforward. Located in a perfect location. Can easily walk next door to popular Mozambique, coffee, and straight down to the coves. Would definitely stay here again.

Excellent location with close access to the beach. Staff were very accommodative and welcoming. They even provided chairs and towels to take with us to the beach. Our room provided a nice view of the ocean, and the outdoor pool area was very nice as well. Room was clean and well-maintained overall. Very good walkability towards coffee shops, restaurants, and other beaches. Very safe and secure area overall. In-house garage parking was safe and secure with a very reasonable daily rate of $26.

This is a great choice for a stay in a less busy part of Laguna, thats not too far from good restaurants and super close to the beach (right across the street). It's on the trolley route so its easy if you aren't up for the walkable distance to the Main Beach area, or have interest in North Laguna, Sawdust Festival, Pageant of the Masters, etc. Friendly and super attentive staff (thanks Erik) and the rooms are comfortable and clean. The pool/ upstairs lounge area is cute and comfortable, and parking is affordable and convenient. We will be back. Thanks!
