Clean facilities, great breakfast, ample free parking! Great location overall, just a few blocks from the beach. Very tasty breakfast and clean rooms. Heated pool and jacuzzi is a plus. It’s an easy drive to all attractions and much better area than staying in SD. The only complaint would be soundproofing, since we were bext to the pool, but that’s minor and ok with us. Would definitely stay here again.

Workmen were repairing the locks on all room doors. I was only there for a day and a half for a special birthday treat. With workmen knocking on the door? The television hand remote system was mysterious. Couldn’t get from channel to channel easily.
