This hotel staff charged me 25$ more than the quote was in writing via email reservation. Then when we were leaving after taking out our trash and leaving the room spotless as we always have the mgr. came to my vehicle as we were pulling out and claimed that the bathroom smelled like smoke, we did not nor do we... more

They stole money from me while I was there!-go anywhere else. You'll be better off if you sleep in an old Maytag box near the dumpsters in back of the Walmart. The staff is horrible, local dining very limited. We were actually glad to check out-then we went to a decent hotel. Live and learn... more

My friend and I made a reservation at the Capistrano Seaside Inn which fell far short of expectations so we headed down the street to find an alternative place to stay. Fernando at the Best Western (Dana Point Inn by the Sea) saved our weekend by providing a room at a great price. This hotel has new, comfortable beds, a... more

LISTEN TO ALL THE OTHER NEGATIVE REVIEWS!!! The building actually shakes a bit from the train -- noisy! PCH is also noisy. Nice room. Big, spacious. Internet is free (If it's not hidden within this high price.) $210 per night is not worth it! Manager says that it was $80 discount. They give you free earplugs - visible right on... more

I've traveled all over the country for mostly work, sometimes family outings, but for the most part I know a good hotel when I see one. And I am a self-proclaimed OCD when it comes to clean hotel service. And it's not just me...being from the Eastern seaboard, I happen to always strike up conversation with someone from the Midwest... more

Yes, the hotel is almost on top of Pacific Coast Highway, and a few feet further are the railroad tracks, and yes it seems that the hotel is the marker to tell the train engineer to blow the horn. . . But ia few feet beyond that is the Pacific Ocean and Doheny State Beach. If you close the windows... more

The hotel itself is not that bad. The manager gave us a huge room with a nice view. The hotel is a but pricey for what you get (old rooms,bad mattresses),but the real point of the bad experience was the night trains. The trains actually pass just in front of the hotel and the drivers seems to enjoy to give... more

The rooms are very small. The motel manager is impossible to deal with. They actually told me on the phone that they were located on the Dana Point marian. They are a good 3 miles from the marina. The motel is not on the beach. It is across Pacific Highway which is very noisy. more

We stayed 2 nights mid July 2006 in room #201 on the second floor which we were told was the “bridal suite”. It’s actually the room shown on the hotel internet site with the vaulted ceilings and fireplace. The large very clean room additionally has a comfortable purple couch, good size balcony with a table & 2 chairs and an... more
