I needed a room for one person while visiting Orange County for a basketball tournament and I really wanted to be within walking distance of the beach but was on a tight budget and I was delighted to discover the Boat Room at Nomads. The price was unbeatable for a May weekend and I loved my tiny little room. It had absolutely everything I needed and the ownership was so helpful via text with getting checked in and then adding the information about my rental car right before we got to the hotel. I was able to snag the overnight parking in front of the Cantina both nights without much issue and both the lunch and dinner I had there were delicious. The hotel is within walking distance of absolutely everything you could possibly want and the digital check-in was super smooth. As per other reviews, the Cantina is hopping from open to close and they do start prepping in the morning but even though my room was literally under the stairs up to the Cantina I got plenty of sleep using the sound machine that was in the room and earplugs (with which I usually sleep anyway). The Apple TV was great; I was able to access multiple different streaming apps easily. I am absolutely planning on staying here again the next time we are in the OC and I really appreciate the variety of rooms to accommodate any size party.

Room was really nice, bed was very comfortable. Just a few little nuisances, the toilet ran water continuously, the shower seat was missing, the shower handheld was missing the adjustment knob. But overall, the room was good value.

Nomads

The Nomad was very nice, clean and comfortable. The only negative thing was the noise above the room was a little excessive from the restaurant.

Customer service is great. The room was very tiny and it was strange having the toilet the sink and the shower altogether like literally you could shower, and somebody could sit on the toilet and get wet from that shower. It was all together very strange.
