Roach Infested
I am extremely disappointed with our recent stay at this hotel. The room was infested with roaches, which is absolutely unacceptable for any level of accommodation. We noticed them shortly after checking in, and it completely ruined our experience. We expected a clean and comfortable environment, but instead, we were left feeling uncomfortable and disgusted. Cleanliness and basic hygiene should be a top priority, and unfortunately, this hotel failed miserably. I would not recommend staying here until they address their pest problem and take better care of their facilities.

Staff was friendly and helpful. I would have liked more lamps in the room - there was only one. The rest was canned lighting. Room and bathroom were clean. The ironing board and iron were in the toilet and shower room. I would not be prone to using an iron and ironing board that was stored next to the toilet.

Our room was upgraded which was exciting until we went to the bathroom which was covered in ants. The cabinet the TV was on looked like someone kicked the bottom out. Honestly was the worst best western I've ever stayed in and not worth the price.

Thoroughly Enjoyable Stay
We stayed at Best Western San Juan Capistrano for 13 nights. Every attention to comfort was there without the costly price: spacious room, comfortable bed and pillows, quiet room heater AC unit, good sized and absorbent towels, amazingly huge complementary breakfast, daily maid service and courteous staff.
