Very close to the old town area of San Juan Capistrano. We ate at heritage bbq which I highly recommend and then started walking around the area. We were enjoying ourselves so much we decided to make a weekend out of it and it worked out great. Highly recommend

Good for the night
The Hotel entrance was very vague. No clear entrance markings. Grounds were clean and Hotel staff were very nice and accommodating. Hotel is older and not very sound proof. The room door had no weatherstripping you could see day light around it, and you can hear doors slamming and people walking above you. Hotel looks like they are in the process of renovating it.

Most amazing comfortable king bed. The location isn't the easiest to get to, you really have to watch because you can easily miss the turn. It is an older hotel and needs updating but it was clean, comfortable, and affordable. The breakfast buffet was very nice, the room is large and there were many choices, something for everyone and you can dine in or they even have take out containers. Overall a very quiet hotel.

We are used to a certain standard when staying at hotels and this one didnt cut it. We were in town for a wedding and stayed one night which was more than enough. We prefer other properties and regret not staying at the brand we usually stay. I also didn't appreciate housekeeping walking in on my naked husband. Thank goodness I was near the door to block her from fully entering. No knock, just walked in. Unexceptable!

Dont get what you paid for.
Traveling with my 2 Teen Daughters. Carpets appeared as if they hadnt been changed in 8-10 years. The smoke odor in our Non-smoking room, was a lot to take. The staff, was friendly and serviceable, but the rooms could certainly use some modernized attention. Usually a Fan of Best Western, but not this one.
