The hotel was excellent. Staff was very friendly. Room was clean and comfortable. Walking distance to everything and right on the beach! The hotel also offered (to borrow) everything you might need for a day at the beach with no extra charge! I would recommend paying for parking as parking is very limited around the hotel.

Perfect locale -but desperately needs improvements

This little motel is in a great location on pacific beach. Everything else is bare bones and minimal. It’s perfect to be steps from the boardwalk/lots of restaurants and the beach. Bad- The rooms on their web site and hotels.com are old photos and thus we thought we were getting a little couch to sit but only uncomfy wicker chairs. Room is small. No mirror other than in bathroom/no full length mirror. No place to hang dresses or anything other that a short coat. Linens and towels were not super clean. Lots of stains on towels and the felt blankets were dirty. They say housekeeping every 3 days. We were there 4 days and nothing for housekeeping. When we asked for extra linens we were given the minimum amount like it was a bother. Never got a new bath mat. We were on our way out but they said we had to take the towels to our room ourselves. We tried to email them 3 times before our arrival and never heard back. The fire pit is a nice concept- but no cushions and we’re told it couldn’t be on when they aren’t there- they leave the office at 9pm- so not ideal. The bathroom barn door/ sliding door didn’t close and doesn’t provide proper privacy. All in all- it’s a cheap simple motel but perfect for beach enjoyment and access.

There was no hand soap in the bathroom so we asked the front desk for soap and a blanket and they never brought it. No parking at the hotel so you have to find a spot in the housing track and walk
