This was a nice hotel in a good location, right beside the Ocean Beach stores, cafes, shops; right across the street from the beach. The bathroom was a little bit compact, but useable. The rooms were decent; nothing fancy. Only issue was noise from other people at the hotel coming and going; children being loud, dogs barking and the acoustics that come with wooden stairs and balconies. Otherwise, it was a good stay. Nothing luxurious or upscale, but it was a good time.

The older lady at the front desk was unfriendly & I definitely did not feel welcomed by her. Furthermore the heater in room did not work and the room felt cold. My experience was cold and unwelcoming unfortunately.

Very nice 3 level hotel. No elevator. Parking is included for 1 vehicle. Room was clean and fairly well maintained. The Zoo and other attractions are an easy 20 minute drive. On Wednesday evening there is a Farmers Market on Newport, lots of good fun, food, and crafts.

Pros: - friendly staff - great location Cons: - hasn’t been updated; no elevator, rooms are dated, and the windows aren’t double pane so you hear everything from the street, including the loud music. Our stay wasn’t terrible but for the nightly rate, it could have been much better so disappointed in the value
