Sunset Inn Costa Mesa

Every 1 star review on here is extremely accurate and true. My husband and I tried to stay here with our newborn for a couple nights because we were from out a town to visit family/friends. Extremely unsafe. We had someone knocking on our door at midnight that was not staff stating, "you guys have to clear the room now and get out." Super scary and on top of that major issue for safety, the first room we had booked had ac/heater broken and was leaking fluid so they had to switch our rooms. The room we ended up getting didn't have any towels, so when I called and ask for towels they said "that's all the towels we have we don't have extra" then after re-stating saying "there were 0 towels in the room" they then came by with one towel. Poor customer service and run down Inn. The place was unkept, with mold on the curtains and screws sticking out of the bath tub. This place is going out of business, don't even bother wasting your money here. You are better off spending a little more for better service, better environment and just for your own safety and peace of mind. Do not stay here. Just as an update: we had to check out early because we felt that unsafe after having someone trying to claim they were staff to make us leave our room which in fact were not staff. Please be aware of this.

This is the hotel for people that eat gas station sushi and have zero care for personal care for safety and well being. Let’s start with the one good thing which was the young man that helped me was very nice. Next I will list out the bad….ill give you a minute to get an ice cold beverage cause its gonna be quite a list…….you got it….don’t forget a coaster cause we have to be mindful. Ok now that we are comfortable let’s begin. 1. The smell in the room was horrid. Something between rotting meat and mold. I’m not an expert but I’m pretty sure that can’t be good for the olfactory senses. 2. There we 2 GIANT holes in the walls. Not “oh I bumped my suitcase into the wall” hole but a mafia style take out hole in the wall. Pictures will be posted. 3. Urine stain on the bed. Now I’m a nurse and urine doesn’t scare me but I don’t like to take naps along with bladder waste. I mean call me bougie but me and the pee pee don’t take nappies together. 4. The mold in the bathroom. Yes mold, penicillin, black mold of all things. As someone with autoimmune disorder I don’t play with things that can get me even sicker than I already am. 5. The cigarette burn on the non-urinated bed. Look I get cigarette after good sex is a thing but damn charge the people the fee and then get another damn comforter. 6. Food under the microwave. I’ll just let the pictures speak for themselves. 7. Used socks left in the dresser. There is someone in the world walking around with cold piggies. If you see this your socks are in room 117 still. 8. I saved the best for last. We looked at the air conditioner and saw something sticking out of one of the grates, we grabbed it and it’s a torn box for SYNTHETIC urine……SYNTHETIC URINE YALL. Now I’m not a pot smoker but I have loads of family and friends that do and I know what synthetic urine is used for but if you have to take this stuff in a shady hotel before meeting your PO then you need to reevaluate your life choices and the hotel needs to clean up better. Me and my girls were there for a total of 45 minutes cause of the condition of the room. Thankfully I got a partial refund and while I’m glad I got that I would have left with no money if that’s what it took. So do yourself and your loved ones a favor and stay as far away as you can from this death trap.

Was only there 25mins because of how sketchy everything was, the AC/Heater looked like a fire hazard & dope fiends walking around the car that live at the Hotel. They didn’t want to give refund because I was there 25mins.
