We have stayed at the sahara for at least 10 years. The rooms have always been clean. We like the private balconies in the ocean front rooms. The restaurant is great for breakfast! more

This was my first time staying in OC and the Sahara was recommended. The staff was friendly. I stayed in the poolside building and it was care worn to say the least. Room was clean, but probably hasnt been updated since the late 70's. They dont supply shampoo, so bring your own or walk over to the CVS nearby. Location... more

The hotel has a few different sections, ours was across a rather busy street but close enough to the beach. The room smelled of cleaning products but we couldn't leave the back window open because a restaurant's fried grease smell came in. The back window although frosted, did not have a curtain and the light shown in at night until... more

Have been here many times and found that for the price Sahara is the one for me. Lacation is great I like being at point on the boards, beach is clean and even though the rooms and motel are one of the older it is a great place to stay. Office staff and cleaning staff friendly and if I had... more

We arrived yesterday at the motel. While awaiting our room to be ready we went up to the beach. When we came back they stated our room was not ready yet it was 130. I stated i did not see anyone go in or out ( that should have been a hint right there) They checked on the room and... more

After extensive research about where to stay in OC, I settled on the Sahara and was not disappointed. Is it the best hotel that I've ever stayed in? Not even close but for OC it sure is way up there and for the price, you can't beat it. Stayed with my wife and 3 young kids for 4 days and... more

The ocean front view is great. The room was clean, smelled good. No sand in the rugs or mildew smell. A/C was cold. We were far enough away from the ruckus of the night-life, but close enough to be around stores/restaurants. The walk to the rides/games wasn't bad either. Beach isn't too crowded at 19th street. Chairs/umbrella rentals right at... more
