We’ve been staying here for years and it was reasonably priced and clean. Beach is half a block away and the parking is included in the price. We stayed here this week and it is no longer reasonable price wise and they were renovating the property so there was not ample parking and it was noisy because of renovations. The property is worn down so it needs renovation but our room was small and run down and not reasonably priced so I will be looking elsewhere when I visit relatives in San Diego.

Stayed here recently and had a great experience! The place was super clean, the staff was friendly and welcoming, and the room was even better than the pictures online. Everything you need is within walking distance—great food, drinks, and the beach just minutes away. Definitely recommend!

Was pleasantly surprised with the room (104) - recently renovated with modern touches which was very nice. The exterior is dated and the parking situation is terrible. The hotel is truly in close proximity to the beach and everything.

Steps from the beach! Huge plus! Family of four, we got a basic two queen room, which was clean. A/C worked well. Bathroom was small (not a big deal), but the shower was big, which is great. Water pressure great. My older kids enjoyed sitting out in the courtyard to chill outside. Not a big chain hotel, but they're clearly working on providing good rooms as I noticed a few rooms were going through a remodel process. Would stay here again.

Good price for the area. Very close to the beach just a short walk away from the stores / restaurants. I’d say it is fine for a 1 day stay. Our room was fine but the bathroom was moldy and smelt of mold really bad. It was obvious they are remodeling a lot of the rooms but we got an old one.
