“A Pleasant Stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 January 2012

First and foremost, I chose Best Western Golden Sails because of its location and price. I booked this place since I was going to the Aquarium of the Pacific the next day. Upon arrival we were greeted immediately. All the requests I wanted were granted. So that's always a good sign.

Upon entering the room I was surprised to see how huge the room is! For a two queen bed room they probably could have added another bed (or two). It was clean and all the amenities were there. I especially like the double sinks. What I didn't like was that my bed was a little uncomfortable (had a little slant to it as if someone slept on one side a lot). I also didn't like that there was no desk chair. They had an upholstered chair instead, which you can use.

I rated this hotel 4 out of 5 because of it's exceptional service, cleanliness, and the price. The drive to the aquarium was about 10-15 minutes but I didn't care as the drive was quite good - seeing what the City of Long Beach has to offer.

The internet connection was decent and I was surprised that this Best Western offered room service until 9 p.m. The food/menu prices were very reasonable. I would have ordered room service if it were not for the free breakfast voucher they gave. Breakfast was awesome! It had all the breakfast items one needs - eggs, bacon, french toast, make your own waffle, bread, oatmeal, fruits, yogurt, potatoes. The staff at the restaurant were good too.

So it was a pleasant surprise - I would definitely come back again.

“Very nice suprise!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 January 2012

This motel was more out of the way than it looked on the map from downtown attractions but it made up for the short drive with excellent food, modest yet very clean and nicely decorated room, great staff, room service, clean grounds and a great price. We would stay there again!

“Keep you're valuables with you.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 December 2011

Good hotel, good breakfast, convenient to CSULB. Would be a good place to stay if it were secure. The staff stole my wifes cash while we ate breakfast. She left her purse in our room (educated now)feeling safe, there was housekeeping and maintenance staff outside the room when we left, didn't discover we were broke until we got to Solvang to buy something. We would stay there several times a year except for this important lesson.

Room Tip: Corner rooms large and sunny, don't trust the staff.. they were very friendly bur over self tipp...

“Good Service, Great Location”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 December 2011

people found this review helpful

We stayed at this hotel when we were competing at the Belmont Olympic Plaza Pool. The location is great: only 10 minutes away from the pool, and close to many restaurants. The breakfast in the morning is fulfilling and delicious. In addition, the service at the hotel was wonderful. I requested extra shampoo, and the housekeeper made sure to leave enough shampoo and lotion for several days. Plus, they were very accommodating of the fact that our team requested extra towels and returned all of them at the end of the competition. The location was very quiet, and the rooms were beautiful, with a great little gazebo and a heated pool in the courtyard.

“I will stay here again!”

This hotel was a happy surprise! This is an older hotel, and the outside looked a little dated, but we really enjoyed our stay. The beds were very comfortable, with the bed without sags. The room was ample and clean, and the grounds were kept very clean. The people at the front desk were very friendly and helpful. I would definately stay here again.
