I liked that this property was close to the boardwalk & beach. For how much the rooms cost I didn't like sleeping on stained linens, also had broken off toilet lid in my double bed room, and didn't see a handle for bathtub water, had to only use shower. and some cable channels would get stuck in scramble mode. My family Did't like the small TVs in the King rooms. Could do better, and with the high price of this property could go down when other properties go down.

This was one of the worst hotel experiences I’ve ever had. Black mold in various spots, especially in the bathroom. Unsafe furniture with screws sticking out — I cut my foot on one. The first night was $150. When we went to extend for a second night, the manager suddenly demanded $400 for the same room. We left. I accidentally left my backpack under the bed with my MacBook and iPad inside. When I called, the staff was dismissive and never returned my calls. I drove back, scanned for the devices, and confirmed they were still there. The manager acted very suspicious. Only after hours of persistence and mentioning police involvement did another staff member quietly hint at where my bag was, which eventually led me to recover it. During this process, I overheard staff speaking English with each other, but when I confronted them about my missing bag they suddenly pretended not to understand me. This was clearly an attempt to avoid responsibility. Between the mold, unsafe conditions, and dishonest handling of my belongings, this place is both dangerous and shady. I chose not to file a police report only because I wanted to focus on my family vacation, but in my opinion, this was attempted theft. The manager has a unique facial feature and actually lives at the hotel. Do not trust this guy or his staff. Stay far away from Cabana Hotel.

Worst place to stay

Bed broke when we sat in it, there was black mold everywhere because there was no ventilation. Tv didn’t work, all lamps, air conditioning, tv, microwave and fridge overloaded on ONE outlet! Shower head and handle was tore out of the wall and moved around.

Okay motel, a bit rundown

This motel was a bit more old and run down than some of the other cheap motels in OC we have stayed at. It was sort of clean enough. The towels were old and worn out and scuff marks on the walls. Also it was annoying that there was no outdoor shower, which made our room sandier. Staff was friendly and helpful. If the price is right okay to stay here, but not great. We stayed on a weeknight. Parking was included and we were able to park in the lot a few hours before and after check in, which was nice.

The staff was fine but the room really needed some work. Mold in the bathroom, bugs and spider webs all over the window screen, dirty floor, some lights and the TV didn't turn on, and the walls were warped and stained. Good location but not a pleasant stay.
