This was one of my favorite stays ever! The room didn't feel like a hotel room at all, so nicely decorated, extremely comfortable bed, and a bookshelf stocked with books. It was just so cozy, I stayed up too late, reading and enjoying the experience. 10/10

Careful of the stoop. It is easy to miss and I fell on the first day and scuffed my knee. It was a rough start. For the price and location all in all I was satisfied. Funny smell in the room. Chemical vs someone had been smoking something Matress number two was worn. No knives in the room. Meh, I could hear the neighbors, but not too bad. They provided ear plugs. I was about three blocks and a neighborhood walk to the ocean cliff view. Awesome

My only criticism is the shower drained very slow. On the positive, the room and the hotel grounds were wonderful. Connie was also the nicest person I have dealt with on the phone in ages. Thanks Connie!
