“I booked a room at the inn through their website so I could choose the type of room I wanted. I opted for a room with two beds and a balcony. From the balcony, I had a beautiful view of the ocean. The view from the window was of a nice street, 8th Street. The hotel is newly renovated, with no unpleasant smells, and the shower is modern and beautiful. One thing that surprised me was that the hot water in the sink operates differently than usual – it takes a little getting used to. The shower has both a rain head and a handheld shower, which is very convenient for washing everywhere. The room has engineered wood floors, which were very clean and not sticky. It also had a fridge. The internet was super fast, and the TV was new and large. The remote worked well, and if you bring your Roku stick or Amazon Fire Stick, you can easily watch your own programs. The elevator has a large window with an ocean view, which I found to be the most beautiful feature. The reception staff were very friendly and polite. Parking is in a garage underneath the building, costing $15 on weekdays (probably $25 on weekends, though I’m not sure). One night with parking cost us $176, which I think is an amazing price for a place right on the beach. There's a 7-Eleven nearby with good coffee, and the main street and pier are a 4-6 minute walk, which is very pleasant. Between this hotel and one that costs $400 a night, I’d choose this one because with the savings, I can enjoy meals at restaurants and cover the cost of gas for coming to Huntington Beach. The beds were new, the sheets were clean, and there was no motel-like smell. It felt more like a hotel, with new carpeting in the hallway. Our room was located far from the elevator. The AC and heater were both quiet and worked well, and they were also new. There was a small learning curve with the digital thermostat – that’s how new everything is! If the prices stay the same, I will definitely stay at this hotel in the future. I had a very good night’s sleep with no noise whatsoever. Sorry I decided to take pictures after staying there and not when I entered the room. Last picture is the view from the room”
“Everything was great! The front desk staff was very nice and understanding when I had a personal mishap! The room was comfy had a fridge, microwave, tv everything we needed for a nice weekend getaway at the beach! Location is Amazing! The beach area right in front of the hotel was not as crowded as closer to the pier. Right on the water, downtown Huntington was right up the street. Very walkable and lots to do :) I recommend this hotel greatly! Got my room deposit back within a few days after check out, had an amazing stay!!”
“The rooms are basic all with views (for the 6-8 months as there is a building be built next door) the check in and service is good and the location is outstanding. Good value for the area and was able to book a week before the holiday which was nice. They are trying to renovate but I can’t tell the difference between old and new. All and all good value.”
