Balboa Inn, on the Beach at Newport

Nice hotel with great location with a lot of restaurants and things to see in close walking distance.

The property is rated as 7.8 and if it was not by the beach the rating should be way lower Mold in the bathroom all over, the Headboard to bed was filthy, the desk looked like a hammer was beat on it. The mini fridge just sitting on the floor like it was just brought in from outside. We checked in and left to another hotel immediately after seeing room.

The politeness and helpful treatment. They answered our questions when we called them. The provided a cork screw for our wine. They helped with parking. They helped us understand that the bath spa has been shut down. The room clean and perfect.

Nice location But for the price i.e. $350+ per night, the room was very poor. Stained and dirty carpet throughout. Chipped paint on walls. Old weird couch in middle of room I guess classifies it as the advertised “suite” Would not stay again.

Clean room and great location. Quite dated but served the purpose. Great if vacationing in the area on a budget

We love staying at the Balboa Inn. You are right on the beach and you can also walk to the Catalina Island Ferry.

It’s so bad room super old heater wasn’t working dirty room even when they change it they don’t clean or change towels or sheets was really bad experience no service the only good thing the hotel location I’m not gonna go there any more

Dirty linens , cracked paint on furniture and walls . The toilet ran for 2 hrs after flushing, felt like a one star TJ Mexico motel !

Purchased a deluxe room. The bedside draws kept opening due floors not level. We got a view of a roof next door that was falling apart.
