Art Hotel Laguna Beach, Trademark Collection by Wyndham

Best hotel and staff ever!! I stayed here last weekend and everything was perfect. I dealt with Anthony and jordon in valet And Danielle and Tess at the front desk. Their dedication to serving their guests is impeccable. They all must be getting paid super well with great benefits judging by how they treat their guests. The parking situation isn't as bad as some Karen's reviewed. Self parking is literally in the next building over (exercise much?). The $50 a night seems steep at first for valet but I promise you it's worth it. You can come and go anytime without having to walk back and fourth and have to find parking every single time. The self parking garage is mostly for tenants of the apartments anyway so parking is limited there. This is the cost of parking in any big downtown area. Check in and out was super easy thanks to Danielle and Tess . To call the elevator you want to press the buttons by the left elevator. And once inside you'll need to hold the key card to the thing for a few seconds to activate, not a quick swipe. I was upgraded from a cozy to a roomy room which was great. It was super clean, soundproofed with great decor and the views of the city were amazing. Nice clean King sized bed. The shower was amazing too being it's own room with a waterfall shower head. I initially couldn't figure out how to turn the shower on but one call to Tess and she came running. You turn the bottom knob all the way to the right. I wish there was better cable tv. There was nothing good to watch except when Harry Potter came on but not everyone will be that lucky. The fridge wasn't cold at all so prepare for that. The rooftop is a great place to hang with amazing city views morning and night. I'd recommend making reservations on the weekends to go up there. There is a 24 hour Mexican food place with really bomb tacos just down the same street and there are bird scooters around to get you there quick. There were some people in and out of the hotel (mostly guests) but they were all super nice. I didn't see a problem with too many people as I've read in some Karen reviews. Overall amazing stay and thank you again to the amazing staff that made our stay so perfect!
