I had a great stay at the Cove. This hotel is a great location near the center of the OC Boardwalk. The room was compact but immaculately clean and tastefully decorated. It was a little chilly during my stay but the front porch would be an inviting place to spend a summer evening. The owner was friendly and eager to please. I would definitely recommend.

The Cove is in an excellent location. It is a very well maintained hotel with old charm. The only improvement I would suggest is a ramp from the street to the entrance and an interior elevator.
