"Loved staying at this hotel! We are from the area, and have since moved so this was perfect because it was close to the beach, yet we could walk to get fresh bagels next door, or to Ralph's grocery store. The owner was wonderful ~ friendly and always available. They had chairs and boogie boards to borrow for the beach. The room was very clean and comfortable, and it was quiet, especially considering we were on a main road. The bathroom was very spacious and had a little table to sit and do my make-up. I would stay here again when visiting Orange County."
