Ocean View Inn, Crescent City CA

Nice big room with 2 queen bed. Very comfortable. Complimentary breakfast, bagels, cereal, oatmeal, yogurt, fruit juice and coffee.
Convenient location.

I just loved this place. It was very Golden Girls to me and clean. Would stay again. The staff was great, the location was wonderful. Highly recommend! The breakfast in the morning is just bagels, cereal and an assortment of drinks. Good enough to hold you over! They offer coffee, cocoa, and hot cider are all day long. Be there before 9: 30 for breakfast, one day they shut down a little early.

If you're going to stay here, you have to be OK with a foghorn offshore beeping every 8-10 seconds the whole night. Sounds like somebody's alarm going off, and you can easily hear it even with the windows closed. Other than that, it's a good place with clean big rooms and a good staff with a decent breakfast.

The room is nice and big. But there is public hair on one of the towels, the refrigerator noise is running randomly. And whoever the f lives above 208 walking like a giant and the floor creaking all morning at 6 am. Like seriously fix the floor.

Turn on volume.

I have stayed here once before and it was a nice place. No issues. I did book a room for an upcoming trip at the end of September and thought nothing of it as it was confirmed.

By chance, I was looking at maps of the area and noticed the hotel said they were temporarily closed. Went to their website where it said it was reserved for first responders.

I emailed them to see if this would still be an issue at the end of September and it is apparently. However.like a previous reviewer has stated.if I hadn't seen it it on maps, I would have shown up and not had a room.

No worries, I was able to get another room so it didn't affect my trip.

My personal feelings.these "climate activists" that keep setting these wildfires on purpose to further that agenda.they need to be rounded up and put in a wood chipper.

Yes, the hotel is dated, but not in a dingy way. It's very clean, plenty of towels and soap/shampoo. Staff are all very friendly and accommodating. There is a little noise from neighbors moving around and walking up the stairs, but once everyone settles down for the night it's pretty quiet. Overall, very comfortable place to stay.

They're charging the firefighters money for their stay! I get this is a business and they need to make money but to charge the firefighters and evacuees while the smith river complex is active feels like such a scummy thing to do!

Pros: location, customer service

Cons: breakfast was starches and yogurt

Overall would stay here again

Go to best Western plus. This place is kinda gross. Went in and took a shower while my fiancé tried to get comfortable. Carpet was gross and torn up. Bedding was stained and disgusting. Chair was sticky and looked like it had semen stains on it.

TV turned off every 7 minutes for some reason. Realized we wouldn't be comfortable here and decided to go to Best Western Plus (which was way better).

Clerk said "no problem" and issued a refund. Then charged me $60 for taking a shower after the fact.

I think the owner's response speaks volumes. I have money, I have a career. I didn't just attempt to rip you off for a shower. I left due to the discomfort felt by walking on dirty carpet in bare feet, the 1980's trash bedding, the semen stains on the chair, the TV that wouldn't stay on longer than 7 minutes.

When I asked to leave and for a refund it was granted without a problem, then as I dropped off the room key and left the story changed and I was charged $60. I will dispute the charge and make sure you don't collect that $60 out of principle. Y'all suck. Your rooms are gross and you have no class. Cresent City's finest.

I had the day I deserved upon leaving your fine establishment.

The only ones who let us in during a power outage due to a fire. We went to bed without lights, but lights and warm water was restored by morning.
We had an adequate breakfast, considering they've been without power for 2 days

Great location for lots of activities. We checked in at 3 and our room was ready. It was clean and there were lots of towels for our 2 night stay. The beds were comfortable. There was a continental breakfast with cereal, yogurt, bagels, oatmeal, juice, coffee and tea.

Easy check in and out. Rooms were great. Price was right. The staff was very friendly. I will be back!

Great hotel in good location.we got a two room suite: 2 queen and 1 king. The room was spotless and well stocked with towels and toiletries. The walls are a bit thin and you can hear various noises from other rooms, but during the night there is absolute silence. Good breakfast. The staff were all very friendly and helpful.

Huge room and very clean. It was a good location for visiting redwoods parks. Breakfast was bagels, oatmeal, fruit, cereal, but only yogurt for protein.

Good hotel! Basic, clean, cheap… We stayed 3 nights as we explored the gorgeous redwoods and beaches of Del Norte county. We left the Do Not Disturb sign out the whole time as we normally do, and on day 2 the housekeeping staff left us a bundle of fresh towels outside the door - what a nice touch! Our room was huge and had three queen beds, perfect for our family of five. The staff was friendly and helpful in making sure we knew the best places to visit and how to get there. Not much to want for except maybe more protein options in the breakfast and better wi-fi. It’s not the Four Seasons but I give it 4.5 stars (rounded up to 5) for exceeding expectations and offering excellent value for the money.

It's a little dated, but it has a "Staying at your grandma's" vibe. Great location! Within walking distance of a lot of cool places. Right next door to Ocean World! The staff were great. They ALL said hi when we saw them. Everything was clean. The breakfast had good options. This will be our go to spot when we stay in Crescent City.

We were visiting Redwood NP and there aren't many choices, but this one fit the bill. Prices were very reasonable, actually cheap. Hotel was better than expected for the price.
What really stood out was the customer service from the front desk agent Angela. She was so good with restaurant recommendations, resolving a minor problem, and generally making sure we were doing good when she saw us that I tipped her directly before we left. Because of her, I'd stay again in a heartbeat. Thank you Angela!

This hotel had many good features and one glaringly bad one. Not enough luggage racks. They tell you "take absolutely everything out of your car" which is fine. But then the whole place only has 2 luggage carts and they are inevitably being used. So it's 5 trips to your car.
Otherwise, hot showers, clean, comfortable beds, breakfast, all the things you would want. Also, the wifi was not great, but tolerable.

The rooms have paper thin walls. I heard every single word that the upstairs neighbor was saying, as well as the elevator buzzing. I wanted to switch hotel (they couldn’t move me to another room) but there was no same night availability anywhere else.
