Garden delight in San Clemente

A quick down south for a wedding in Fallbrook and a visit to a fun tiki bar down the street from the Always Inn. Freida is a lovely host and gave us wonderful advice about the local restaurants and some of her own food! Breakfast was stellar. Be prepared to hear some amazing stories about Freida’s life.

Freda was the most excellent host. My room was clean and very quiet. I loved the small patio outside my door to sit and have breakfast. Her Sunday breakfast was to die for. Perfect location to walk around to shops and restaurants. I will definitely be coming back to stay here.

I booked a stay for two nights in this amazing space earlier this month. Freda, the owner, was warm, welcoming, and an amazing cook to boot. She reached out right away once I booked to check in about special dietary needs or other things we might need during our stay. Though we were only there for a brief time, she treated us like family. Her food and stories were wonderful. She does so much for her community as well. The space is charming, clean, and quiet and centrally located to amazing dining areas. This will definitely not be the last time we spend time at the Always Inn! Thank you for everything, Freda!

Wonderful little b&b

Freda is an amazing hostess! She makes the best breakfasts, knows everything about the local area, and is very friendly and accommodating. She will help you plan your day, give you directions to a secret beach, and even make dinner reservations for you!

Best Bed and Breakfast in San Clemente

We loved our stay at the Always Inn B & B. It was exactly as it is, a bed and breakfast. Very intimate and cozy. Felt like our second home. The location is also amazing and within walking distance to everything. We will definitely be returning here for our next stay in San Clemente.

Great bed and breakfast

Freda was an amazing host. I’ve never stayed at a place so warm and welcoming. We weren’t expecting a gourmet breakfast but that’s what we received. The room was nice and cozy and we enjoyed the connecting patio. If you want to know where to go, eat, hang out etc Freda’s suggestions were all a hit. If you have a four legged one, bring him/her along. Freda just might have a special treat for them! Thank you for a wonderful stay!!! Thao & Val

Freda, the property owner and host could not do enough for us! She even went out of her way and picked us up in Anaheim. It was incredibly kind, she had car trouble that day and asked her friend to help get us. We really appreciated it. We were well fed, and very well informed about San Clemente and what to do. We spent a great 4 days there. Thanks to Freda!

Freda’s place

Freda! She is the intangible that makes Always Inn work. Her check-in process allows for last minute changes. While our room was ready when promised, we wanted to get out of our car earlier. She made it doable. The breakfast was outstanding! When we return, we will stop at Trader Joe’s first. $20 for cheese and crackers at the local store. Too much.
