Dana Point Spanish Revival STR14-0220

10/10 Excellent

"Terrific location walkable to just about everywhere in main areas of Dana Point. Having A/C was a huge plus as we hit a heat wave when there. The only con was the bed was somewhat soft and indented where people have slept. I filled in the indentation with a folded beach towel and slept well. It is an old historic place so not modern at all, but it has personality and we loved it. Coffee on the front deck every morning, smart TV for shows at night."
