10/10 Exceptional

The check in was probably the most efficient and easiest check in I have ever experienced. The staff was nice and helpful. The room I stayed in was a little dated but extremely clean. There is no A/C but there is a ceiling fan and that combined with the weather and ocean breeze kept it cool enough. I can’t say enough good about the location and how close to the ocean it was. My family and I will definitely be staying again when we come back to California.

Wonderful location and service, older property
Great location and customer service but the place hasn’t been updated in a while. Very dated decor with old wallpaper, rusty bathroom fixtures, etc. but the place is clean and has beachfront access, which is fantastic.
