Not So Great Stay

Our stay wasn’t all that bad at this hotel but there some things I’d like to point out. First off, the desk person who greeted us, Terrell was rude and impatient. I tried to ask him questions and he talked down to me like I was bothering him. He rolled his eyes at me and wouldn’t even let me finish asking my question before he rudely interrupted me and spoke to me in a condescending manner. When I paid for the room at check in, he never gave me a receipt and didn’t bother to tell me there would be a $25/day charge for incidentals. Now I know there’s usually charges when you check into a hotel, but not providing a copy of the form I signed at check in or mentioning the charges was careless on his part. He told me I’d get a receipt upon checkout. The single queen room is very small. There’s no chair in the room if you don’t mind sitting on the bed. The windows and doors have blinds, but tinting the windows and doors for privacy and keeping the room cool would make better sense. The parking is only 10 spaces in 10 different driveways. If you don’t get there in time to get a driveway, you have to park in the street. The driveways where you park are poorly lit and the hotel seems too cheap to install any lighting back there for its guests! The pool hrs are from 9am to 9pm- but when we got back to our room at 9:40 pm to go to sleep, there were people still in the pool - so they obviously don’t enforce that particular rule! Ots an ok place to stay but not my 1st choice!

We had a great stay and wish I we could have extended it for one more night. I would have given 5 stars, but the shower drain was very slow. Other than that, everything was wonderful. I’d definitely recommend it to anyone looking to relax by the ocean!

It was a great location for a generations family vacations. My 75years+ parents were able to enjoy beach views comfortably. For the rest of us, restaurants, beach access, and shopping were a pleasant 20 minute walk. Full kitchens, dog friendly, friday night live acoustic guitar in the courtyard. It's a perfect place for family time.

This is a quaint stay out of the main tourist drag of Ocean Beach. Come out one way and walk along the cliffs, and walk the other way to find plenty of cute indie restaurants and shops, all within a 10 minute drive of downtown San Diego. The staff are super friendly, the pool is good fun for kids and the views out over the ocean are incredible. You can also rent beach things (body boards, umbrellas, chairs) by the day to make your stay even better!

creepy motel feel

decent place obviously renovated but still had that creepy motel feel. It was clean and the views are amazing, furniture outside were kinda rough. I understand these are next to sea water and hard to keep immaculate. our bed was awful super low to the ground small bathroom, just kinda creepy motel feel lol but was clean so don’t want to be to hard on them.
