The walls had knife holes in them. The curtains were torn and looked like they had also been damaged by a knife. There was damage to the front door that looked like someone attempted to repair. I do not recommend staying here!!!

Needs to be Renovated

Not clean at all, doors, walls, bathroom, hanger rack all nasty. Fridge nasty didn’t work nor did the phone in the room work the pillows felt like they put cottonballs in them, and the room smelled like a thrift store and we couldn’t sleep with some lady outside screaming. I wouldn’t recommend the Vagabond hotel in Costa Mesa to anyone
