We really wanted to like this place. We loved the location and ease of getting to/from there. Our room was always clean and the staff was friendly. But the WiFi is unsecured and weak, they constantly ran out of towels (we were denied 3 times asking for replacements), and waiting for the only elevator grew frustrating. Pros: Proximity to restaurants/shopping/beach/pier, outdoor seating, parking, pool/hot tub Cons: Unsecured and spotty WiFi, lack of towels, I-5 right behind the building, always waiting for single elevator

Close to the beach but you have to drive a little. Loved the beach - probably my favorite part of my trip. Streamed TV through my phone to watch YouTube movie at night.

The location was good from the standpoint of walking down toward the pier, but the noise from garbage bins being emptied early a.m. was disturbing. No maid service. They came once on our 2nd day at 4 p.m. We were napping. They never came back during a 3 night stay
