I didn't like how the hotel double charge me for my room and then adjusted it after I check out. I never had that happen to me at any hotel.

9.2/10 Wonderful! (1,009 reviews)
We always enjoy our stay here. We've been coming for years. We now have two wonderful places to stay right on the beach in Newport. Also, the restaurant is divine! Parking at Dorys is free after 2:00. Lots of eateries and things to do. You can walk to Lido or Balboa in 10 mins. Last, their rooftop view can't be beat. It's wonderful to watch the sun set. It sits on a very active corner. They give you ear plugs if you're a light sleeper, but things settle down at night.

The toilet seat was broken. The air conditioner was loud and blew really cold air into the bed next to the conditioner. Ridiculous.

Great value a few draw backs but not deal breakers
"The room was a “balcony” room but the balcony was too small to enjoy, plus it just amplified the sound of traffic on the PCH ALL NIGHT. The Hotel is older but has obviously gone through renovations. The room was clean, didn’t smell the way some older remodeled hotels often smell of smoke. Some rooms ..."
