The property and location were really good. The oceanview room could see the water through trees & over other rooftops which I enjoyed as it was a cozy local kind of view. The location was near enough to stuff in the city without being in an overly busy area, and you can walk to the beach and overlooks. On our arrival day, though, we received an email asking us for arrival time. I responded with an estimate, but a few hours later we received a phone call asking for our arrival time again. I've never had a hotel *call* to ask for an arrival time (email, yes) and was pretty annoyed because it interrupted our vacation activities to verbally ask a question we'd already responded to via email. Parking was free/onsite, but very tight because it's underneath the accommodations, so you need to be careful with larger vehicles. I appreciated the Starbucks k cups in the room, but there was only 1 bar of soap for hand washing & showers (fortunately we had extra in our bag) and the shampoo/conditioner was a combo ("conditioning shampoo") in tiny plastic envelope packets. We got by with those since we were only there 1 night, but for the hotel price & location I was surprised by the low quality toiletries and would definitely purchase something else to use if I was there more than 1 night.

We had a great stay at the Crescent Bay Inn for my nieces wedding. Sal was so helpful and we had a great room with a peek a boo view of the ocean.(Room 208). Loved the beach chairs, easy walk to the beach, the beds and the view. We would go back for another visit, it was a affordable option for Laguna!

Disliked: Amenities
The property is older but the room was clean. There are no premier channels to watch just local channels and there was a line running down the middle of the tv that was annoying to see when your trying to watch a show. The so called ocean view is hindered by brush and tree over growth. I wouldn't pay an extra $20 a night for that but you can hear the waves crashing on shore. Walk to beach is more like a 10 to 15 minute walk depending on your speed. Comfortable beds but a bit pricey for a no frills hotel.
