Property was really nice, clean, excellent use of space in the rooms. The beach was RIGHT THERE and the selection of restaurants just by walking up the street was great.
View of the courtyard looking towards the beach.

Amazing staff, nice location and beds that are well-above our expectations for comfort! Wife had "the best sleep of her life". Overall, a great stay. Room was smaller than expected, but that didn't take away from the experience.

Hotel is in the hub of ocean beach scene but very aggressive people all around. Somewhat quiet the first few nights, but we were kept up until midnight with sub par music blasting. Wouod not recommend for grown adults, let alone children.

Views were great, location is very good. Unfortunately the bathroom was very cramped. I had to lean forward on the sink to sit on the toilet and I couldn’t stand completely in front of the toilet either. Rooms were clean, but
