Rooms are simple and often compact but comfortable, with strong showers, good beds, effective A/C, and some retro charm or recent updates. Some guests mention older quirks such as limited bathroom outlets, minor maintenance issues, occasional street noise, and mixed Wi-Fi feedback. Expect a friendly, budget-minded stay close to the beach.

This is a small hotel/motel that was recently renovated. The owners were fantastic and accommodating. The room was clean and quiet enough since it is located on a busy street. There is ample parking and is located near many restaurants. The room was on the small size and there was no microwave therefore the 4 rating for comfort. Would definitely stay again!

Excellent property. Owners are on site and you can really tell they put their heart n soul into the hotel. Everything was spot on. Dave was very friendly and available to make sure we were taken care of. One of the best options in the area. Clean and comfortable. Recently upgraded so a lot of the things were new and in great shape.

This place is charming, clean, and comfy at an affordable price, and the staff kindly let us check in slightly early so we could drop off our bags and make it in time to a family memorial. It's also conveniently located to shopping, dining, and beaches. Highly recommend for travelers on a budget. Although the room's smallish, slightly worn with age, and could use a bathroom outlet - it served our simple needs perfectly! I'd definitely come back.

Management was very accommodating. Many surfers here so, early to bed, early to rise is a common theme. It's a few blocks from the interstate so there is some street noise but it's more relaxing,white noise rather than disturbing. Bed is very comfortable.

The hotel was good enough for a one night stay. The closet and bathroom doors don’t line up so they don’t close, not an issue for us but might be for some. We couldn’t get our personal devices to connect to the WiFi but it wasn’t a big deal for us. Dave was super nice and met us at our arrival. If you’re just looking for a place to sleep that’s budget friendly, this fits the bill.

This motel was a great value for the price, with a spotless room at check-in that, while small, made excellent use of the space with some amenities like a mini fridge and small coffee setup. Internet was strong for phones and streaming. The TV had some apps available like Hulu and Netflix that would could sign in to if you have an account. The twin beds were comfortable, and the room stayed cool thanks to a strong A/C, though it was just as pleasant with the windows open. The owners were incredibly kind, quick to help, and offered great local knowledge that made the stay even better. There are several food options within walking distance of the motel. 10/10, would stay again.

Great location for everything San Clemente. The owners, Dave and Ann Marie, are kind, engaging, and super helpful. The bed was amazingly comfortable and though the rooms are small, they are ideal for people spending most of their time out and about (like at the beach!). We will, 100%, stay here again next time we are in the area.

We had an incredible stay at west coast it was a réal highlight of our trip and we wish we could have stayed longer ! The room were big, clean, bed super comfortable and super quiet. The hôtel is very convienently located if you want to enjoy SC or surf. Big shoutout to the hosts that are incredible people and helpful and their dog Harvey is adorable.

The owner was fantastic. Very helpful and friendly. My room was very small but larger rooms are available. Very basic remodeling.

Great experience. Room was very comfortable. Owner’s took many considerate steps in preparing the room with fresh bottle of water, coffee maker, coffee and cups. They even have an ice tray in the Mini Fridge. I was able to get some cubes for my cooler by morning. Very cool. San Clemente is a charming So Cal beach town. Maybe last one left.
