great location but Dana Point Harbor is under construction. This property will be torn down so it's pretty basic. Not bad though - good price.

The Marina Inn is a small hotel located in the county run harbor and owned by the county government.The hotel was built in the early seventies as an alternative to the pricier privately owned city hotels, and possibly as a convenience to the boaters who dock in the harbor. Because the hotel is in the harbor it's super convenient for walking and eating. Although the accommodations are spartan, the staff is warm and friendly. We stayed in a first floor suite for two nights and we found it to be quite comfortable. The room we stayed in was clean, quiet and had been recently upgraded- new mattress, new sofa, fresh paint and it looked like a new carpet throughout the main floor. The bathroom is simple and small, but there was plenty of hot water, a decent shower, and clean towels. There was a good size TV in both the living room and in the bedroom with lots of channels. The living room had a large overhead fan and a heating/cooling system for comfort. There was a small kitchenette with a granite counter, microwave, refrigerator and coffee machine. The bedroom with a king size bed also housed a walk-in closet. Parking is conveniently located in front of the hotel. All in all, considering the harbor location and the resonable price, we thought we got great value for our two night stay.

Lovely location. Needs some updating and some seriously upgraded breakfast facilities but as the whole area is due for demolition and a laguna style modern renovation (sad to lose all the characterful buildings and restaurants) it really doesn’t matter. It is clean, basic and the staff are friendly.

Its a dated motel, but Its the only hotel at the marina. Nothing fancy, just a place to stay, and it does include a breakfast: make your own waffles, yogurt, bagles, cereal, juice, and of course coffee.
