I had a wonderful stay! The hotel was very clean, and the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. The location is beautiful — just steps away from the ocean. I’m already looking forward to going back. Highly recommend!

Great location, far exceeded the usual “continental” breakfast, extremely comfortable bedding and pillows, clean, room was well-appointed with a cute balcony with good view of water and sea wall walk (unfortunately parking lot is in the foreground). The property is older and that shows in some details. Would stay again.

Room was clean, staff generally friendly, but, There is no elevator, and nobody offered to help me, drag my heavy Suitcase up the stairs after a long day of travelling. Still, next time I’ll ask. Good morning overall

The view of the ocean was gorgeous. It was a quiet area. Unfortunately the room needed upgrades badly. The carpets were old and the bathroom had pink mold in the bath tub. The furniture was old and mismatched.

The room climate was excellent. Room was very clean and fresh scent. Staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was included which was delicious. The only problem was the breakfast room is small and has 2 seating tables. So we took our breakfast to our room and enjoyed it.

The staff was very friendly and responsive and the room was very clean. The shower was the best of our trip…roomy,with immediate hot water! The location was perfect for easily exploring the area by foot. Stores nearby, across the street from a grocery store, lots of restaurants to choose from, and beautiful seaside paths to walk along. Even saw some sea lions down by the Fish Market! Overall a very good place to stay,
