"The elevator didn’t work. The water was shut off for two hours. Laguna beach has terrible sewer smells in the early evening. You can’t sit outside on your balcony or even go for a walk. It sinks very strongly. Won’t ever stay in Laguna beach again."

"The place was nice overall, but my experience was just okay. Unfortunately, there were quite a few ants and a lot of mosquitoes in my room, which made the stay uncomfortable. It wasn’t a terrible experience, but definitely something that could be improved."
