Trenton checked us in and was especially friendly and helpful. We heard early morning construction, hammering, drilling etc. next to our room, but overall it was a pleasant stay. Staff onsite were gracious and very attentive, providing extra towels and toiletries when needed. We'll be back again.
The overall property was very nice. The air conditioner in our room was fairly loud, even with the earplugs provided by Sonder. There seemed to be a lot of gnats in the sink in our room which was strange. The location is unbearable. Right next to the beach and walkable to a lot of great shops and food.
The only reason to stay here is because of location. This room was so deep in the basement that there was 0 light and no cell phone service - the phones were literally on SOS. The wifi at the property does not work well, so despite staff efforts to give alternative options, we could not connect our cell phones to the wifi and basically had to deal with having no connectivity to the outside world when in the room. This did not feel safe nor did it make it easy or comfortable to do/schedule/communicate with anyone or anything. Additionally, the floors were really dirty, you can't walk barefoot and coming out of the shower left literally black prints all over the floor. I wouldn't stay here or recommend it.
Very safe for a 28 year old solo traveler. Visiting laguna for the first time and this location is the perfect location to access the beach and transportation.
It’s nothing the hotel did or didn’t do. I felt like Expedia showed the hotel to be something a little more upscale. I was expecting a little more upscale and I cannot stand bare vinyl floors. Everything sticks to your feet. Shower left a bit to be desired. I could not get my door code to work 1/2 the time, staff had to give me a key. Light would not turn off inside the room or bathroom and I didn’t know how to turn off the motion sensor part. Location is great, staff is super friendly and helpful, and the property is really clean. Just wasn’t my style.
Very beautiful place surrounding and property only thing I could say is the room was a bit small, but did have a big shower and decent sized bathroom. Staff was very friendly!!
Great spot, easy contactless check in, only thing that sucked was I wasn’t able to request an early check in on the app, not even 30 minutes early so you have to wait till 4 it seems like. Again, great place, very clean and walkable !

Great for the price
The Hotel is excellently located. If your plan is to stay in Laguna this will do it. close to the beach if you want to walk a flight of steps. If not, a short trolley ride north or south to flat entry beaches. I would definitely recommend traveling south to Aliso creek beach, much better access. Walk to town for restaurants and shopping.
Booked this hotel for two nights. It’s right on busy pacific coast highway and across the street from a restaurant. Highway was very noisy and a lot of delivery truck noise early in the am. Room had ear plugs and a noise canceling machine. Really? The stairs to our room were in bad shape. Pool is very small. Lifesaving equipment was in bad shape. Life preserver was old and in bad shape. Pole to save a drowning person was literally black. For two days the same leaves were in the pool deck. How about sweeping them up? Our room had only one chair and no table. Also no chairs outside our room to sit on. The air conditioner made constant noise. I disliked the remote checkin. They wanted an uploaded picture in your drivers license and a scanned picture of yourself. This not a place to vacation at. Probably would be ok for a single person on a business trip.
