Best Western Plus Newport Mesa Inn

Not friendly

Cons: I usually only stay at Best Westerns. But after my experience at the Newport Mesa Inn I never want to go again. Basically got kicked out of continental breakfast because we had a service dog, even though I let them know and asked questions when I checked in the night before. Couldn't even get one glass of juice without being stopped and asked to leave "the common area" because people complained. Really? A couple complaints within a minute? We walked in minding our own business and our dog was quiet in our own arms, beahving perfectly fine. And for those ignorant people's information, we purposely got a small, hypoallergenic nonshedding dog so it would be less inconvenient, especially for those with allergies. Maybe you can at least bother to ask us some questions before just asking us to leave. So we check to see if we can at least sit outside, but that area is occupied by people smoking. So they seriously want us to eat our breakfast outside in the smoking area? And we can't take it to our room either? It says, "The ADA mandates that the service dog and handler have access to all public places. This is the law." So is the hotel and their "common area" not a public place? "Businesses may not: Refuse admittance, isolate, segregate, or treat this person less favorably than other patrons." I'm so angry even as I'm typing this, because it just reminds me what annoying trouble we went through. I have never had this problem at hotels until today. I have half a mind of suing these people, or taking it up to corporate. We came to celebrate my fiancé's birthday and our anniversary, but we left feeling degraded, and our day in Newport was ruined. Thanks Best Western.

Pay the extra

Pros: Location- however- think about driving a longer distance than staying close-

Cons: The food was processed and bad- the hotel was old, bathrooms were dingy- floors dirty- sad the call it an ok hotel. The air didn't work- and the manager said it did- how about the customer is right???? It was just a place to set out heads! Nothing more- ohhhh and ice machine sucke as well-
