Good choice for Dana Point Harbor

Good location with view of the ocean through the trees from some rooms. Very spacious suites with refrigerator. No microwave, which would be nice. Partial room servicing each day which was fine. Several restaurants are close by, with a short walk to Dana Point Harbor area. Some items/areas could use a decor refresh - for example our jetted tub was a bit stained. Breakfast was good. Extra $10 per day charge for parking

Fun Weekend Stop!

GREAT location, they were VERY kind, breakfast looked great though we went out to eat on the water. The only problem is one of the rooms REEKED of smoke and chemicals like they had tried to cover the smoke smell. But they were VERY QUICK to give us another room which smelled perfectly glorious.

Ez check in

The check in was super fast and easy. Room was clean with a spa tub and a tv in the bathroom. Free breakfast was decent, but the waffle maker was broken. Starbucks, McDonald's and jersey mikes right across the street.
