My second time staying here. It’s nothing fancy. It’s very convenient for beach and dining options. Short walks to everything. The staff is great!! Front desk employees are awesome! I won’t stay anywhere else when I go back to Ocean Beach. And I plan to be going back.

Avoid room 101. The door from the courtyard to outside the front of the hotel is right next to rm 101. This door slams closed every time someone goes in/out. People walking around the top floors sound like elephants walking around. Don’t plan on trying to sleep in past 7…it just won’t happen with doors slamming, guest walking/running around in the top rooms. Also be aware there are a multitude of belligerent homeless right in front of the hotel shouting all times of the day/night. This of course is out of the control of the hotel.

Location, location, location! Just across the street from Ocean Beach. Free parking!!! Lots of great restaurants in walking distance. Very friendly and helpful staff. Comfortable bed and shower. Relatively quiet for being in the thick of this beachfront town. Easy driving access to many of the must sees in San Diego. Have already recommended to family and friends

Steps from the beach BUT…

Hotel has a great location right across from Ocean Beach. This beach is a local hangout with an interesting crowd…not ideal for young kids. Rooms are very basic and small, but again you’re paying for the beachfront location. Check-in was easy and the staff member was super friendly, offering a lot of recommendations for food (lots of options within walking distance). A different desk person was super rude when we asked for additional towels after 2 days. Said we’d asked for “a lot of towels” but it was literally the first time! Overall, we wouldn’t stay here again with our kids. Probably better suited to couples who prefer the local vibe. I think Mission beach or Pacific beach is a better option for kids.

Pros: Location was great. Just a few steps from the beach. Own parking lot. Cons: 1. NO elevator. You have to carry your luggage upstairs. 2. NO tissues. 3. Very thin walls; you can hear everything. On the first night the room next to us was very noisy with a dad instigating chaos in his children. I had to call the front desk TWICE. When I called the front desk the second time(I gave it a good 16 min) the guy said I SAID I WAS BUSY. Wow 4. Not enough outlets. 5. The toilet seat to too close to the sink; you'll slam your shoulder.

Location, Gracious service and Comfy

During our stay they we had to make several trips to the office for those little extras, and they were always gracious and had plenty. The view was amazing sitting in the middle of hotel and the location with free parking made it ideal. We walked to beach and all the local restaurants which were fantastic. Felt like home. The beds and pillows were super comfy. Will recommend!
