Overall we had a great stay here. The rooms were nice. The view was great. It was right on the boardwalk so that was super convenient. There aren’t many pet friendly spots right on the boardwalk, so this was great. We did lose power one night in our room but they tried to fix it quickly. All the staff were super friendly except one younger woman at the front desk occasionally who literally never said a word to us or even looked at us for that matter. That was a little strange. But overall, a fine stay.

Pretty good but bed sucks.

It’s been recently renovated but really, they seemed to throw some paint on the walls. It’s great when you just want waterfront hotel room. But the bed is gonna kill you. Just a warning.

Our amazing girls weekend.

Our stay was great. The over night desk clerk was awsome. Only thing that wasn't great was that the bed was too firm. But the view made up for it.

Horrible

Place is a dirty nightmare, we were placed into 3 different rooms until we found a room that everything actually worked in. It was a 3hour process just to get our room. The place as a whole is very dirty. I talked to probably 10 other people who were also staying. 9/10 said they would never stay at the Paradise Plaza ever again. Although it is cheap, I’d spend the extra $100-200 next time to get a place you feel comfortable sleeping and showering in.

Few issues

We stayed for St. Patrick's day weekend and the room was clean but showed signs wear. For example- balcony door lock was busted and did not lock. TV was standing on the table yet the mount was installed on the wall. Sometimes there was no hot water. The door to our room was difficult to open maintenance guy came by and showed us how to open but was a mess. Why should I fight with door lock to get into my room?! We could not get connected to guest Wifi, it was not happening even after front desk lady tried to help us. Not helpful when you have a kid that likes to watch videos. Room was otherwise spacious and great oceanfront view. We brought our dog along and that was nice. Unless all the issues fixed, would NOT stay again.

Worst hotel in OC

Do not stay here!! The tv doesn’t work… someone from the front desk came and still couldn’t fix it so she recommended we watch a podcast on our phones instead. Then at 3 am went to use the bathroom and the toilet started overflowing so I called the front desk and was told maintenance isn’t in until 8 am and they had no plunger because it was locked in the maintenance closet ….. someone brought up a bunch of towels to lay on the bathroom floor… I am disgusted and will not be back here.

I hurt my foot due to the staff negligence. A large piece of iron was sticking from under the bed which they covered with the spead. The staff did not even offer for me to file an incident report. I had to ask and was told I had to wait for the manager, whom i waited for 30 minutes. My foot had a large gash and I was offered a bandaid, really!. I had to ask for my monies back. Anyway beside my injury caused by thier negligence, I very dissapointed with the cleanliness of the place. The roof in the passageway was leaking and a bucket was place in the middle of the hallway to catch the dripping water with no signs or guest apologies. Seems the dirt was swept to the corners. The pool was across the driveway and dirty things were stacked on one side. Disgusting for what could have been such a nice place. Dissapointed.
