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.

Just barely good enough.
Rented 2 rooms and 1 room had mattresses so hard it was like the fake beds in the stores advertising bed linens. Also I reserved queen sized beds for both rooms and both rooms had full size beds. The chair in the room didn’t feel safe to sit in. Breakfast options were great.

A bit overpriced
The room was okay except for a chair that didn't work properly and a piece of furniture that looked like it was chewed by a dog. The breakfast was good. We picked the hotel because it was close to a concert venue that we were going to. We just thought the hotel was a bit pricey for what you get. On top of that, they charged us for parking.

Moderately unsafe location and ants in my room
There were ants in my room near the door and crawling on one of the 2 beds. It’s also located right off of a freeway ramp so most rooms are loud and there were vagrants in the parking lot. There was a sign posted on the lobby door that there is no public restroom to give you an idea of the number of homeless people walking around trying to find a restroom.
The pool house where the breakfast was is nice and across the freeway the rest of San Juan Capistrano is nice but I would not recommend this property.

Good for the night
The Hotel entrance was very vague. No clear entrance markings. Grounds were clean and Hotel staff were very nice and accommodating. Hotel is older and not very sound proof. The room door had no weatherstripping you could see day light around it, and you can hear doors slamming and people walking above you. Hotel looks like they are in the process of renovating it.

Most amazing comfortable king bed.
The location isn't the easiest to get to, you really have to watch because you can easily miss the turn.
It is an older hotel and needs updating but it was clean, comfortable, and affordable. The breakfast buffet was very nice, the room is large and there were many choices, something for everyone and you can dine in or they even have take out containers.
Overall a very quiet hotel.
