I had a nice room on the third floor with two comfortable beds and an ocean view. Clean bedroom with mini fridge and microwave. Hotel is easy to find and lots of parking, some of it covered parking. The fellow who checked me in was cheery and efficient. There is a gym on the 3rd floor and an indoor swimming pool on the lobby floor. Pool was too cold for my liking to swim in, but good to soak my feet after walking about 15 miles that day. The only complaint about this hotel is its very noisy - mechanical type noises like maintenance is being done, though I didn't see anyone doing construction. At one point I was lying on my bed and the entire room was shaking - it was like being on a vibrating bed! I sleep with ear plugs, so the noise didn't keep me awake. But during waking hours at the hotel, there was constant noise. Some of it could be attributed to the elevator. I walked down to the 2nd floor where the ice machine is located and it was making a lot of noise. The closest beach is about a 3 minute walk away, and that's mostly due to waiting for the pedestrian lights. I liked that I could walk from the hotel to the Cliff Walk, though it adds an extra mile each direction. A couple of dining options nearby. It's better to drive 2 miles into Newport for much more choices. A nearby gas station has a convenience store selling coffee, fountain drinks, slurpees, and some fresh bakery items. Overall a nice stay. I'd choose this hotel again, but I deduct a star due to the noise.
