There was very little parking on the main level. When I returned in the evening, it was full and I thought I'd have to park on the street. I was surprised, though, that there was another parking lot under the building! It would have been nice to notified of that fact in advance.

This property was excellent for the price. A little difficult to park and back out larger vehicles, so be extra cautious. Otherwise, no issues at all. We had a great stay.

It was a good value for a 2-Star Hotel at $99 plus taxes & fees. It is not fancy, just basic, but had all the amenities needed for a easy, comfortable night stay except a broken ice machine. It is in a safe area as it next to a school & park and the hotel has free garage parking.

We decided to return to this hotel for the Fourth of July weekend, and had also stayed two weekends prior. We originally had a third floor room with an ocean view, which made our stay extra nice. Prior to our return for the fourth, I called and requested the same room with a view. We were so happy that they set this room aside for us! We've stayed at just about every price range on hotels and resorts and this hotel fit our wants and needs on a budget. The location to downtown San Clemente and the pier is just minutes away by car, or I suggest using Uber due to the parking issues by the pier. The hotel has a parking garage with an elevator which was very convenient. The only thing missing that would be nice is an outside sitting area. That would have kept us from using our camping chairs. We will definitely return😁

Was quite sufficient for what we needed. Convenient location close to the main shopping and dining area of San Clemente. Plenty of parking, room was basic but clean, bed comfy. The only bummer was that Expedia said free breakfast and there wasn't any and no water available in the vending machine. But it was a reasonable price and I would stay again.

This was a very pleasant stay. The room was clean and smelled nice. The staff was friendly. The only minor conveniences were the bathroom barn door; very hard to open and close, and parking is small, but they have an over lot underneath in the garage. I would stay again.

San Clemente is beautiful, really worth many visits! My stay at the Rodeway Inn was good. I am a male, solo traveller and was only looking for a place to shower and sleep - and that's what I got. The place is very simple, but very clean, everything worked: shower, hot water, toiletries, hair dryer, coffee maker in the room... The linens and towels were clean, the parking lot was plentiful. The bed was a little hard for me, but that is probably personal preference. The staff was efficient. I just wish they let me use the restroom after my checkout, didn't seem like an odd request, but nope!

This hotel billed itself as Hotel Avenida, but the outside is marked as a Rodeway Inn. The room was good, with the exception of no floor mat, so we couldn't wipe our feet coming in from the rain. Our problem was with the staff - we made our reservation through a third party, but when we checked in, they said we owed more money, and they tried to give us a smoking room - our reservation was specifically for a non-smoking room. When we tried to argue about the bill, they said we could call the third party. It was late and we were tired, so I figured we could deal with it later. When we checked out, the front desk said we weren't charged anything extra, so he had no receipt to give me. Guess what? We were charged the extra amount, and when I called the hotel they said there WAS an extra amount not paid, but no charge was showing on their end. Neither of the staff we interacted with was helpful or courteous, and basically told us they weren't going to do anything, so now I have to dispute it through my bank - what a hassle! It's too bad, because otherwise we liked the hotel.

Hi internet friends. I've been staying here quite a bit in recent months, so here's a review. Property: The property is clean, quiet and well maintained. Some of the rooms have an ocean view. Staff: The front office staff has always been welcoming and professional. The housekeeping staff has always been helpful and friendly. Location: This property is in a quiet neighborhood and across the street from a park. The area looks and feels safe, like it's a nice place to raise a family. It's a 10 to 15 minute walk to the beach from here and there are restaurants within walking distance. I recommend trying Super Bowl Express for teriyaki bowls, Cafe Rae for their breakfast/ lunch menu and El Jefe Cafe for Mexican food, all nearby. I find Hotel Avenida to be a clean, safe and budget friendly option. I look forward to future visits. Best Regards.
