The room was perfect. After a very long day of travel, our VRBO Host cancelled our reservation at the last moment. An agent found a comfy room at The Wayfarer. The night host, Blaze and security guard Rick went out of their way to make us feel welcome and took excellent care of us! Our daughter lives in San Diego,so we have often walked past the wall murals at your place...imagine after a tough day yesterday - waking up in a comfy bed, making a cup of coffee, and sitting on the balcony to look at the beautiful mural and ocean....I can not say enough for the kindness we received from your staff! We WILL definitely be back!
