14 West Hotel

14 West Hotel

8/10 Good
"The older style of this boutique hotel and rooms around the courtyard were charming and cute. The grounds are lovely and the location is perfect!! The rooms themselves need new carpeting badly and a few touch ups to paint and wallpaper. The beds were comfy, but our TV didn’t work the first night. They did fix quickly once informed. This is our 2nd stay here and we’re probably lifers when we come to Laguna, but room upgrades on the older part of the hotel would be great!! Always a great value though!!"
