“Great location, kooky inn.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 April 2013 via mobile

Little inn by the bay reminds me of if you have crazy friends that you only visit because they live by the ocean and you're staying in their crazy guest room. The customer service was not great. The room itself was musty with a broken shower. If you are a light sleeper, avoid this place. The noise didn't bother me,... More

“Great location and quaint, remodeled rooms”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 April 2013

This Inn is in a great location, and was recently remodeled. The rooms are quaint and stocked with a small refrigerator, coffee maker, and nicely decorated. Excellent for the price. Would stay again. Pleasant staff.

“Good value for the price”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 March 2013

our room was clean and the furniture was new. Short walk to the beach, pier and lots of restaurants, etc. Draw back was noisy partiers walking hone after bars closed & hot water ran out quickly in the morning. Definitely reccomend if you're looking for inexpensive alternative.

Dear Heather_L901, Thank you for your nice feed back to our little hotel. True, we are centrally located and within walking distance to many bars and restaurants in the Balboa Peninsula. That is one of the main attractions to our hotel. It is also the main reason behind the noise you were speaking of. Sad to say, there is not... More

“Nightmare! Bed bugs!!!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 March 2013 via mobile

Bed bugs in room 3!!! Travelled home with us. Hotel staff would not let us talk to the manager about it. It is now a big financial cost to each of us that brought it home. Also, blood stains on the sheets.

I am very sorry to hear about your less than satisfactory experience during your stay with us. I just want to clarify a misconception: our hotel does not have any bed bugs. We are duly certified by the Public Health Services of Orange Co. as having satisfactorily met the requirements set by the state/county in that regard. I also apologize... More

“Not a Good Value!”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 February 2013

We stayed 2 nights with a rather large group of senior Motorcycle travelers.The rooms are VERY small and the bathroom facilities were sadly lacking.The towels were thin, and "dingy", and the shower mat was an "indoor/outdoor" carpet remnant, certainly not very absorbent on a cold tile floor! There was not a single towel hook anywhere in the bathroom, or on... More

A small motel between two busy streets. About 1 block off the beach. 1960s decor. I found it clean, with pleasant help, and inexpensive. Try to get a room on the other side from the liquor store. Plenty of pillows, just enough towels. They only have enough parking for one car for each room. Don't bring two cars. (who brings... More

Thank you for taking the time to give us your feed back. I recognize our limitations when it comes to the parking situation. We are a small hotel in a very urban setting and during sold out nights it can be tough for some of our guests to find parking. That is why we implement the one car per room... More

“Nice, convenient place to stay”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 November 2012

I lived in Newport Beach for two years and when I come back to visit, I like to stay on the peninsula. Little Inn is right in the middle of the action. Very easy to get back and forth between restaurants, bars, and beach. The room isn't huge but we're not looking for the Walforf. The complimentary beach cruisers are... More

We haven't stayed in Newport in years. We chose the Little Inn for its location, which proved to be fantastic. It was simple, clean and walking distance from anywhere we wanted to go.
