Location of the spot is immaculate for the price - right on the beach and in walking range of many good spots. Staff was friendly and the place was clean. Parking is easy to access and gated. Interior was a bit dated but that’s my only complaint.

Great area with lots of dining options within walking distance. Thurs, Fri, Sat, nites can be noisy as there is lots of nightlife nearby, great view of the Pacific and just steps away from the beautiful grounds of the property. Grocery store and pharmacy right across the street. Public transportation from San Diego airport right to the property. We'll be back.
