Portside Inn & suites draws travelers for its waterfront location near the San Pedro cruise terminals, but reviews consistently describe an aging property with significant wear, frequent maintenance problems, and cleanliness concerns that range from musty odors to pests.
The location is widely praised as walkable to the port and waterfront sights, with some rooms offering harbor views. Service is mixed, from friendly, accommodating front-desk help to reports of rudeness or limited responsiveness. Facilities are often unavailable or basic, including a closed pool at times, broken elevator or ice machines, and a parking fee. Expect a budget stay focused on proximity rather than comfort.

Exterior of the property looks great but inside is a different story. Attention to detail should cos. Elevator walls very dirty with something splashed on walls. Carpeting almost non existent. Room is large but definitely showing its age. Sink counter area very dirty and could use a good cl among vans paint. Door trim in bathroom falling off wall. Pool drained and inoperable. Paint in room needs a lot of touch up and wall patch needs finished. Towel rack in bath broken off.graffiti on bath wall No tissue in dispenser Tile in sink area very dirty in edges and corners. For the price we paid thought this place would be much nicer! Not to mention they charge an extra $10 to park in their lot!!

While the staff was very helpful and friendly the room we stayed in #103, was in major need of help. Very loose door knobs, broken lights, leaking condensation unit that made puddles on the tile floor, the shower head was made for a 4 foot person, the shower needs to be resurfaced badly as it may have been cleaned but you would never know that, shower curtain rod was ready to fall down etc. the patio had broken patio chairs, several bricks were missing on the ground causing big holes for someone to get really hurt, pool was not filled, and dirty table. Location to the ports was perfect however. Put some money in this place and the owners could make it a gold mine!

Hotel looks like it hasn't been updated since it was built. Hallways and elevators smelled like pet urine. Hotel also has a very musky wet smell. No hot water in the room sink. Free wifi doesn't work and there is no coffee pots in the room.

Some lights in the room didn’t work. We couldn’t get the taps in either the shower or sink to work. Clerk from the front desk said he would move us but when he came he just showed us how to get the taps to work. We had done exactly what he did but you needed to have the strength of Arnold Swarzenneger to turn them on. None of the ice machines worked. There was no way to make a hot drink - no kettle and no cups. The whole place seemed very run down and a bit smelly.

Inexpensive for a reason. High security at check in (signing through a narrow slot) gave me the impression this is a high crime area. Carpets are filthy as are the floors in the bathrooms. Obvious feces smears on the bathroom walls and dirty floor as well. The only positive were the large, absorbent towels. Pool was closed and drained although it was 90 degrees during my visit. Spend a few dollars more and stay somewhere else.

not-so-good. No security lock on the room door. No coffee at all. No ice at all. No printer to print out our boarding passes. Happy to hear we could leave the car for $10 a day. They should advertise this feature. Room shabby, a good value for a one night stay.

If this hotel was not across from the cruise port, there is no way I’d pay 130$ a night for a place like this. This hotel was not good. Not only did we wake up to bed bugs in our room (203), but our neighbors room lights shined under the connecting door, they were noisy, the room is beat up, and dirty mattresses. We showed the front desk the picture of the bed bugs but they didn’t seem to care.

TLDR: I don’t recommend this hotel if you’re looking for a clean place to sleep. Here are the different things we noticed in our room: - Room smell slaps you in the face as soon as you get in (it smells like a humid room that wasn’t ventilated for 10 years.) - Floor wasn’t clean (we could see dirt and hair) - The bathtub was in a terrible condition (dirty, rusty and pieces of it missing) - There was hair under the bedsheets (which indicates me that they weren’t washed after the previous guest) - The AC unit was full of dust - The door lock (latch) was broken We went to the front desk to request a different room (hopping to get a clean one this time). They switched us to a suite. When we got in, we checked everything and there was somebody else’s glass of water on the bathroom counter and hair on the supposed clean towels. Additionally, the door lock (latch) was also broken and and the AC (that was stuffed with dust) had a little pine tree air freshener in it. so we went back and asked for a different room. We got a different suite that finally was in acceptable condition, aside form the floor being dirty and a missing smoke detector (we could see the wires hanging from where it was supposed to be). I’m aware the place isn’t a 5 star hotel but cleanliness and a normal smell should not be optional, even for a low grade hotel. If we only had to change room once,

This old and rundown hotel has a great location, particularly for cruise ship clients. A faulty sink drain in the bathroom caused water to be on the floor not only in the bathroom, but in the rest of the room. Their solution was to place a wastebasket under the sink. When taking a shower, I ended up standing in 4 to 5 inches of water. A total rehab is necessary.

The first room they gave us had puddle of water under the AC unit and dirty towels on the dresser. The next room was slightly better with no puddles. There are holes in the walls, the bedside lamps have shades held on with packing tape, the bed was so uncomfortable and we were told by our Uber driver that this place was a homeless shelter and to watch out for bed bugs.

Check in was very quick and easy. Front desk staff was friendly. We stayed here one night before our cruise. It worked fine for one night. I definitely wouldn’t stay here long term. As other comments mention the place is in rough shape. There were stickers, trash, and hair all over our room. However the convince of it being within walking distance to the port makes it bearable for a night.

Lits of place to eat around the area but they close so early so plan before arriving to this area. The rooms are spacious enough and good for what we paid for. Except the heater was giving out cold air instead of heat. Their was wind storm when we arrived so the room was cold.

The staff was nice, check in/check out process was easy and location was super close to the cruise port but the building is pretty outdated. Everything was old, smelled old like an old smoking motel, and there was a roach in the bathroom and one in the main sleeping area. The sheets was dirty as well. I didn’t bother asking for new ones since it was only for 1 night. It was definitely a long night since I’m terrified of bugs..

I had no hot water from the faucet in the sink so I told the front desk. They were going to call the maintenance company. But I said It’s getting late and send someone in the morning. The next morning no one showed up and the Hotel wouldn’t even give me a little credit. They said that I had just notified them.

A plain but adequate hotel handy to the cruise ship terminal and close to good restaurants and shops and harbour walks.

Fabulous location, directly across the road from the LA Maritime Museum and a 10 minute walk to the International Cruise Terminal and the Battleship Iowa. There is no restaurant at the hotel, but plenty close by. The hotel is a little run down and could do with a little TLC especially the beds.

Our room faced the water, we were able to watch our ship come into port. Pretty cool. It's clearly an older property, but you can't beat the view

A decent hotel low cost for catching cruises within walking distances. The open yard parking is safe with a security guard on site. The hotel seems new renovated. No coffee during our stay, but a short walk to a coffee shop.

Room smelled like smoke. Furniture had cigarette burns. Bath towels were paper thin. Advertise breakfast but no breakfast or coffee available. Very very out dated.

Nothing was in working order. Main Elevator broken, ice machine broken as well as no batteries in the remote. Continental breakfast was not being served. I asked the guy for coffee and he said there's a bakery on the corner. Super disappointed that I even payed for this stay

Hotel looks like it hasn't been updated since it was built. Hallways and elevators smelled like pet urine. Hotel also has a very musky wet smell. No hot water in the room sink. Free wifi doesn't work and there is no coffee pots in the room.

Smelled strongly of weed. I knew it was gonna be somewhat sketchy but what pushed it over the edge was the fact that they said they had free breakfast and then didn’t.

The hotel is a little dated but who cares since it is pretty clean for an older building (I'm guessing it is from the 1980s). The Green Onion Mexican Restaurant is right around the corner and open pretty late. It seems to be the only restaurant within a few blocks, but it has good food at a reasonable price. Stayed here overnight before a cruise. I think the Princess Cruise dock is about a couple miles away but Carnival is on the other side of the port about 6 or 7 miles away.

Although web pictures look good, the property does not look like that in person. Very old property, room smells like mold. No safety windows. No breakfast, no covers on electrical outlets. Charge for overnight parking.

not-so-good. No security lock on the room door. No coffee at all. No ice at all. No printer to print out our boarding passes. Happy to hear we could leave the car for $10 a day. They should advertise this feature. Room shabby, a good value for a one night stay.

It was one of the most smelly, dirty, places with meth heads hanging out in front. Gunshots were heard 700 ft down the street. There was an ironing board that was raggedy with no iron to use. The towels were dirty. Thank God I brought my own. No blankets, only sheets. Never again. Not worth over 2 dollars or more to stay. Really stinks.

Unfortunately, our stay was very disappointing. The hotel appeared outdated, and both the hallways and guest rooms were noticeably dirty. The overall condition of the property did not meet our expectations, and it did not feel like a comfortable or family-friendly environment. We would not choose to stay here again
