Pros:

Staff was very certious and friendly. Although room was clean, bathroom was outdated and balcony off room was not clean.
Also, located over one mile from downtown where most restaurants and shops are located

Pros:

Laguna Cove Hotel was a wonderful experience. The staff was super helpful and check in was easy. Enjoyed waking up to the sound of the waves each morning. Bathroom was spotless. And the extra unexpected amenities were such a nice touch. Will be back again.

Didn’t have an ocean view however the ocean was across the street, rooms might need to get insulation because you can hear your neighbor going to the bathroom lol

Pros:

Cute, clean room, a little run down, wifi didn’t work. Definitely paying for the location and view vs the standard of the room. Overall would stay again.

Pros:

It was very convenient, clean, and had a nice mattress. The late check in arranged ahead worked out great. We slept really well. It is quaint and charming, rather than modern and luxurious.

Pros:

For the reasonable rate I wasn’t expecting a lot. The room was clean except for the floor on our first day. We were graciously given early check-in by a couple of hours, so perhaps cleaning was rushed. It did get cleaned the next morning. Otherwise comfortable, if very basic. Be nice when adjacent construction is done.
Location is great and was worth any inconvenience.

Pros:

The room itself was adorable — very cottage-core, with a cozy charm. The location was excellent, and the balcony view of the ocean was absolutely breathtaking. I loved being able to keep the screen door open and fall asleep to the sound of the waves all night. The property overall was beautiful, spotless, and had a homey, welcoming vibe. It is a little dated in places, but that just added to the character for me. The only minor challenge was that the front desk closes at 10 PM, so check-in has to happen before then, which can be a bit tricky. Other than that, everything was truly wonderful. I would absolutely stay here again — and definitely plan to in the future!

Good location for a beach hotel, albeit right on the very noisy PC HIGHWAY. A good budget option with no frills.

Not what I expected but ok
Pros:

Beach view from our tiny bathroom window over construction. Room was ok- very small. The floor didn’t feel like it had’nt been swept for a while . The bathroom was also very small, no place to put toiletries. The shower door was so small I could barely get in and I’m not a big person. Very little hot water, it was lukewarm at best. Bed and pillows were ok. No breakfast provided, just coffee and tea.

Pros:

I really liked how this was right next to the beach, but I hating that the only view we had of the ocean was blocked by an active construction site, when this is done there will no longer be any ocean view.

It also meant that we couldn't relax during the day in the room since that construction was loud an annoying.

The room itself was fine, beds were comfortable and clean, watching TV was pointless as they only offered a very limited set of cable channels with no guid, so it was a nice time travel back to 90s cable TV.

We were not here for the TV though and being close enough to walk to many restaurants and shops was nice, its just down the street from a public beach and every location were were there for was either wakable or within a very short drive.

Overall, when you add in the value, I would stay here again as the other options we looked at were 10-15 miles south and we would have had to drive around a lot more.

Just okay
Pros:

We checked in and the check in was less than fun. The front desk person was not personable. I expected to pay a security fee. This staff member let us know that the fee was in case we stole anything. That was not how he explained that fee to the two separate people who checked in ahead of us. The housekeeping staff were very kind and helpful. I liked the plants around the property they made the place very pretty.
The room was what I expected but the shower was very small. Unfortunately the bathroom had an ant problem. We did not do breakfast the first day and we checked to see what time breakfast was as we weren’t told when we checked in. We were told it went till 11am. The following day we decided to go down and get something and all they had was coffee and yogurt.
The bed had a pillow top but the mattress felt too hard. We were also disappointed that there was no elevator. We are older and the stairs were manageable but it was hard with luggage
Overall this was an okay place to stay but I think we will choose someplace different in the future.
