If I could give this ZERO STARS, i absolutely would. Worst place i have stayed EVER and our family does a lot of traveling. From the moment i attempted to check in i was trying to figure out how to cancel and receive ANY of my money back. The front desk staff were awful and rude, the picture were deceiving, the room was FILTHY (i had to clean the shower myself the first night of our stay, the walls has stuff dripping down, footprint smears on the wall, dirt, and other nastyness that i could only guess what it was). Extremely limited parking, they have 3 parking spaces that you can reserve for $40/ day, but be careful because they will overbook and not refund the money for your parking space. We booked a spot ahead of time, but they claimed we didn't even though there is proof we paid. The bed was like sleeping on cement and the fan in the bathroom leaked the entire time. The place smelled terribly like mold also. The ONLY plus to this establishment is it is in a good location, but literally that is it. Biggest waste of $1300 we've ever spent. I have several pics of the disgusting room as well but im unable to post any pics to this review. But they will be on the Google review for sure.

We checked on Tuesday (Oct 8th) try to check in. I sent request to check in early and check out with the total summer of $85.. The request was approved. The lobby attendant seemed preoccupied with a personal phone call and uninterested in helping. Is about 2 PM when I attempted to check in, she immediately told me off the bat there will be a charge, not asking me what my name was or if I had a reservation or made or anything trying to brush me off very quickly so she didn’t have to deal with any issues. I have made my reservation through Expedia, which I have already paid for the trip yet she was preoccupied to get back to her phone call that she charged me 158 total and then let me know that she would refund my money, but wasn’t given any confirmation number or any information. It brings us to Wednesday, October 9th when when I walked to the lobby to ask about my my refunded money, met with attitude on her mistake that she had made and confusion. Was only offered a receipt after I asked for it and I couldn’t get it till till I checked out, but there wasn’t any insurances that I will get my refund.. all in all I feel this lobby attendant needs to refresh and customer service. She seems uninterested into the job and is looking to just get by..

Our room was #104, their emerald king room, and we would recommend NOT taking this room. The bathroom door didn’t close for privacy, the inside room stairs are outside our room and we could hear every footstep up and down the stairs especially at night. Plus the door to access those stairs would slam shut every single time! And the window facing the street was literally against the public sidewalk. Only one mirror in the bathroom, only a short rack to hang shirts from, not long enough for a dress or pants, basically no closet. The metal bed frame protrudes on the corners you walk past and all of us have bruises on our shins from it. But, what a fantastic location of the hotel! Just don’t expect a lot of comfort from this room. We Couldn’t get an upper balcony room, which hopefully is better laid out. House keeping is by request only. Luggage storage is simply leaving it in the lobby.

I came for a 1 night stay with my son. We had a wonderful time. I know this area very well. It can be a nightmare for parking but if you time it right, you can get lucky. I live in san diego and would come back here for another staycay. It's not the Ritz but it is worth the price. Alice was wonderful at the front desk

Location is amazing. Didn’t realize I was getting 2 twin beds instead of double queen. It’s very simple but it works. Also you need to reserve parking which I didn’t find out until after booking, so prepare for that. Staff was very helpful and in this super busy area, it was nice and quiet.

Awesome property, right on the beach, close to everything and public transport. The only problem was that the room was DARK. Like almost not lights. The lamp next to the bed cast more light than the ceiling one. The staff was awesome and very helpful. Would definitely recommend !!

The description of the room was misleading. It said it had an ocean view which cost more. The view was when you stood in the corner next to the window and peered through the staircase that was in the way. Don’t rent room 102. It’s a ripoff. And it felt very claustrophobic. Horrible lighting. And only a few reserved parking spaces - not enough for one per room.

The reason I am giving it an average rating is because the property virtually no working internet in our room. You would have to go outside to the common area to get wifi signal. But even with strong wifi signal, the internet did not work well at all. Also, we did not receive cell phone service in our room which made the situation worst. It was a very bad inconvenience due to needing access to wifi for work and school.
