We were supposed to just leave our luggages and was able to check in early so that was a relief! Staff was great! Room had a fridge, microwave, stove, pots and pans, plates and cups, kcups for coffee, and a TV. Outside area has a grilling station and cute hangout spot. It was also clean! Would come back here again.

The place was great, staff was great. The price was pretty high so expectations were pretty high. My issue was the air conditioner in the rooms upstairs kept tripping the breaker, during the day staff helped and offered to send someone but i got it going and left, over night i didnt sleep at all it was hot in the room and the breaker would trip every 15 minutes after the breaker was reset. There was no windows to leave open only the sliding door, the mesh on the door was ripped so i didnt trust just leaving that door open. My kids were on the other room so i had to keep resetting the breaker. Hopefully that gets fixed soon.

It is a budget friendly option if you are trying to save. However, we never once saw staff onsite. The room key was left by the front window and no one was there at checkout either. I did step on a gooey substance that stuck to my sock as soon as we walked in. As i was looking for a nightstand outlet, I noticed candy wrappers behind the nightstand. It also had a musky smell so we opened the windows. Then, our room was filled with a weed smell from I’m guessing our neighbors.

We rented at room with two queen beds and a small kitchen. The the walls are a bit thin so you can hear some muffled noise of other people. Didnt bother us with the AC fan on to mask the very quiet setting. One day some guys were up at 7am talking in loud voices outside but that is par for the course. We shopped at Vons and had a nice BBQ on the upper landing. A bit of an effort walking up the hill. Rented bikes to ride to botanical garden and did a snorkel at lovers cove. Lovely place, we'd stay there again.

Light in the main room didn’t work. Neighbors came in at 2am and partied all night, unable to sleep. Called the after hours number listed on the poster out front and it did absolutely nothing.
