The room was quiet overnight, and we managed an okay night’s sleep, but I’ll just go home next time I’m low on cash. We’d been enjoying the beach on our last day in Seaside after staying at another hotel, and wanted one more night with limited money, so I booked la Fontana on my phone. You get what you pay for. It’s right next to a soup kitchen, and my boyfriend saw a strung out man wandering the bottom floor. We asked for a first-floor room, but the man seemed hesitant to give us the last one in that area, so we took a room on the 3rd floor. I could tell right away it was going to be the worst place I’d stayed, and wanted to leave, but getting a refund seemed like a struggle. There was no lampshade, the old rug was dirty, the tv didn’t work, and a ripped wicker chair sat in front of it. The bathroom surprised me by not being bad, though the shower curtain and mirror over the sink could have been changed. My boyfriend raised his concerns, and two staff members came up and spent about an hour fixing the tv. They also vacuumed, brought the garbage cans we’d asked for, and changed the comforters, so they did try. All the smoke detectors were broken and covered; a worker said smokers didn’t like them. The ac unit didn’t work very well, and the lamp was so dim the room stayed dark after nightfall. Update: just before checkout, we spotted a roach crawling on the bed, as pictured. If I’d seen it earlier, I definitely wouldn’t have slept as well.

Do NOT book here. It was filthy and moldy, with used sheets and rude, terrible front desk staff and a manager. When I complained about the dirt, the front desk woman said she was the cleaner and it was fine. I took her to the room, and she said she already knew the pillows were dirty because she had put them on the bed. She kept saying they were dirty, not moldy. If you accidentally book, don’t sign at the front desk or you’ll never get your money back. This place is gross, and I’m STILL WAITING ON A REFUND 3 MONTHS LATER!!

Hi, I’m Sheldon Johnson. I stayed at this hotel last night, and it was very clean. The manager was polite and hardworking, and she kept a smile on her face while making the room very nice. She’s just taken over the place and is doing a great job. I’d always give this hotel five stars.

The place is falling apart, and the room NEVER gets cleaned. The mattresses were filthy, there was poop all over the toilet, and the shower was covered in mold. The AC smelled strongly of mold and body odor, while the walls had boogers, blood, and some mystery fluid on them. Super sketchy and absolutely disgusting, the worst place I’ve ever been. I’d rather sleep outside. Please don’t bring your family here. This place needs to be condemned.

We left before our planned checkout because the bed sheets looked like they’d already been used, the room was shockingly dirty, and the pool water was filthy and seemed not to have been serviced in a while. My boyfriend and I booked online for the 4th of July. The pictures made it look like an old hotel, but we thought we could manage. At check-in, a woman made us wait outside and there was no professionalism. Stay away if you expect clean sheets and a welcoming room, and don’t pay for the full stay until you’ve seen the room. If you have to pay an extra $70 per night somewhere else, do it. They don’t give refunds. This business should be shut down.
