The cleanest of the hotel.
No parking space, no pool to rooms to small.

The hotel was really clean but nothing compare with the visual tour we saw in internet no parking spaces available we have to park in the street and no pool.

I was disappointed with the $60 additional fee for the extra two people, despite reserving a room with 2 queen beds.

It was centrally located, near good restaurants and freeway access.
The rooms were dated, beds uncomfortable, you could hear the neighbors come and go.

I like this hotel based on convenience, location and we were staying one night for a baseball tournament for my son. I would have not wanted to stay more that 1 night because it was not comfortable and noise from other hotel guests. ...read more

Easy access to the beach, friendly staff, clean room, nice shower, quiet.
The bed, the couch.

My husband and I needed a one night hotel stay, thought the price was perfect. We soon found out why it was the budget lodge, the bed was terrible. Both of us awoke several times in the night, to make it worse I was 8 months pregnant. I actually had to wake up to use icy hot because my lower back was so sore. It was like sleeping on a slab of concrete or wooden boards with a light covering over the top. The hotel was very clean, the staff was nice, the shower helped relieve our muscles in the morning from the terrible night of rest. This hotel is not for more than one night, not for the elderly or people with back problems (or pregnancy) The good thing was every time we woke up we were laughing about it. It was that ridiculous. ...read more

Convenient location off the freeway, near to restaurants, clean hotel and parking in garage.
No coffee maker in room.

I will stay at this hotel again. Convenient location off the freeway, very clean, great Mexican restaurant across the street, local bar next door with free pool tables. There was also a breakfast Cafe across the street but I didn't get to try it out yet. ...read more

The bath tub was big! We went and bought bubbles to enjoy it.
The beds were very hard.

The hotel is in an excellent location and the staff were very friendly. They upgraded us to a suite and the wireless was free. They cleaned our room everyday and everything was within walking distance. I strongly recommend this hotel and we will stay there again when traveling to San Clemente or other local beaches. ...read more
