"Smells bad"

Laguna Cliffs Marriott Resort & Spa
7.9 (107 reviews)

Laguna Cliffs Marriott Resort & Spa ★★★★

📍 25135 Park Lantern, Dana Point

"As a Marriott Platinum member, I really felt the service at this hotel was terrible. I queued for check-in at 4 PM and it took about 40 minutes to get in, with no distinction between membership levels. Secondly, the old hotel carpet smelled bad. I booked a sea-view room, but they gave me a room on the second floor with no sea view whatsoever. There was a construction site outside the window. It was incredibly dusty, and the chairs on the balcony were unusable; even after wiping them twice with towels, they were still black. It's definitely not worth 3500 yuan."

The Ritz-Carlton, Laguna Niguel
8.8 (74 reviews)

The Ritz-Carlton, Laguna Niguel ★★★★★

📍 One Ritz Carlton Dr, Dana Point

"This is a beautiful Ritz property. The views are breathtaking as it's sits atop a cliff above the ocean. The beautiful scenery of the beach and hills can't be compared. It was a nice getaway for 2 days as I'm only about 45 min away. I do have one complaint about cleanliness in the room. I am going to bet someone with a child was in our room before as there was sticky reddish /pink substance all over the tray above the coffee bar. I cleaned it up myself. Then I also noticed a huge snotty dried booger on the wall just at the level a child would wipe it. As someone who keeps my house very clean I Don't see how housekeeping could have missed both these things. I've attached a few photos. Other than that staff was great and I had a great time!"

8.5 (109 reviews)

Best Western Plus Marina Shores Hotel ★★★

📍 34280 CA-1, Dana Point

"The room is good and safe. The service is also good. I went to the front desk to store my bag. The lady was very nice. She helped me put my bag in their inner room and remembered my name. When I went to get it, she recognized me and helped me push it out. Breakfast was also OK. The hotel is located 10 minutes from the beach and about 10 minutes up the small hill to watch the sunrise. It is very cost-effective. The room is good and safe. The service is also good. It took me 10min from This hotel to beach, and also 10min to a small hill for sunrise. Highly recommended."
