Reviews and Ratings
I had a wonderful stay at this boutique hotel that perfectly captured the charm of Laguna Beach. The ambiance was inviting and unique, and the location was absolutely fantastic with easy access to both the beach and local eateries. The rooms felt clean and comfy, which added to the overall pleasant experience. However, I did notice a few minor quirks like some courtyard noise coming into my room, which could be a slight drawback for light sleepers.
I recently stayed at this hotel and found it to be in a perfect location, just a short walk to the beach and downtown shops and restaurants. The room was beautifully designed and comfortable, but some aspects like the bathroom setup could be challenging for those with mobility issues. The service was friendly and accommodating, which made my experience even better. However, I did encounter a few issues regarding maintenance that were bothersome during my stay.
I had a fantastic stay at this boutique hotel! The unique room designs and the cleanliness made my experience truly enjoyable. The location is unbeatable as it’s right across from the beach and near numerous restaurants and shops. The only downside was the additional parking fee, but overall, it felt like a great value for the experience provided.
My stay at 14 West was truly a delightful surprise. The charming ambiance and impeccable service made my experience feel exceptional. I appreciated the modern design of the room, and it was a joy to have an ocean view nearby. However, I did notice that some guests mentioned noise from the highway, so if you are a light sleeper, you might want to request a room further away. Overall, it was fantastic value considering the quality and location.
I had a rather mixed experience at this hotel. While the location near the beach is excellent, the cleanliness and upkeep of the rooms left much to be desired. The staff seemed overwhelmed, and my interactions weren't as positive as I hoped. On the upside, I found some unique room designs that added character, but the lack of basic maintenance really dampened the stay.
