I had a wonderful stay at this beachside hotel! The room was really clean with nice decor, and I particularly loved the terrace and beautiful ocean view from the rooftop, perfect for enjoying breakfast. The owners were so friendly, and the fresh baked cookies every day were a delightful touch. The location was ideal for exploring Marina and Newport Beach, and the free parking was a big plus. However, the dining options left much to be desired.
