I really enjoyed my stay, the check in and check out process was easy and all my questions were answered over the phone, so friendly and so helpful. The rain shower in the bathroom was perfect. The kitchenette in our room had everything we needed to make a nice steak dinner, and we had a nice walk around the area. I would definitely stay here again.

I recently stayed at this hotel, and unfortunately, my experience was far from satisfactory. I would rate it 2 out of 5 stars. Firstly, there was no way to lock the motel door, which is a major safety concern. Additionally, there were no extra safety precautions in place, making me feel quite uneasy throughout my stay. The hotel is situated in a sketchy area, which only added to my discomfort. To make matters worse, there was virtually no staff presence. I only saw staff on site once during my entire stay, which made it difficult to address any issues or concerns. The shower was another major problem; it would turn cold whenever someone flushed the toilet, making it difficult to enjoy a comfortable shower. The noise level in the surrounding area was extremely high, making it hard to get a good night's sleep. Overall, the lack of safety measures, poor location, minimal staff presence, and subpar amenities made my stay very unpleasant. I will not be staying at this hotel again, and I do not recommend it to others.

Beautifully renovated with amazing access to the beach and the bay. Attention to detail in the rooms was notable - from the bathrooms to the kitchen. Comfy beds and overall both lovely and functional. The only challenge was proximity to neighbors on the property (you could hear everyone's every move) - bring ear plugs/use a sound machine and you'll be fine. This property is worth it!

Gem in the mission

The place was located seconds from the beach. There’s an amazing breakfast/brunch cafe on the corner as well as a terrific Caribbean place across the street. The room was stylish and fully furnished with stylish cooking utensils and retro/modern flair. The service was prompt and friendly! There were only a few small issues that made our experience a smidge from perfect. Overall with the price and thoughtful touches, I would definitely recommend this place and I’ll be coming back again for sure!

My wife and I recently stayed at the Boardwalk Hotel, and the location is fantastic—just a short walk to the beach. The room was bright with a nice bed, a full kitchen, and a modern bathroom. However, we found some cleanliness issues, like trash in the nightstand drawer, a used towel in the bathroom, and hair on the shower floor. The biggest letdown was the private hot tub, which was the main reason we chose this room. When we arrived, the hot tub was set at 76 degrees. I texted the front desk, and they were kind and empathetic in their reply, advising me to leave it on the highest setting and wait. I set the temp. to 104 and we decided to take a walk around Mission Beach which is a lovely, peaceful area with tons of food, bar options, and nice little shops. Four hours later we checked the temperature again, and it had only risen to 79 degrees. By this point, it was clear we wouldn’t have the hot tub experience we were looking forward to, which was very disappointing. I contacted the front desk, and while they were kind and professional, they informed me I’d receive a discount for the inconvenience. I’m unsure how to redeem it since we booked through Expedia. I would still recommend the Boardwalk Hotel for its fantastic location and nice rooms. However, I would advise caution when booking rooms that feature a private hot tub. The regular rooms were priced around $200, while the private hot tub room was over $300—a premium we didn't get to enjoy.

The building is right off an alley, with landing right on the alley and property line, no set back at all. We can’t open the curtains as it look right into the alley and no privacy from thouse across. It’s not what it shown in the photos when booking. The building is very old apartment with new finishes, but no insulation for sound. We can hear every step from upstairs guests. Water running from upstairs. Sheets were dirt. Red stains, hairs from eyelash, long curly hairs, pubic hairs were all found on white sheets and pillow cases. I emailed those to the staff, no one is onsite to provide extra change of sheets. Street parking is free and plenty available when we asked about $25 onsite parking with delayed response. The area is great. Safe to walk around. But the property itself is lack of what hotel should be equipped of.
