Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Staff was nice and check in/out was quick and convenient. The stairs to the deck were closed off to repairs and I was pretty disappointed about that. Still a decent view of the cliffs. Very walkable area and ocean beach is about 15 minutes away. Probably wouldn’t stay here again but it’s cute and nice enough.

This is a quaint stay out of the main tourist drag of Ocean Beach. Come out one way and walk along the cliffs, and walk the other way to find plenty of cute indie restaurants and shops, all within a 10 minute drive of downtown San Diego. The staff are super friendly, the pool is good fun for kids and the views out over the ocean are incredible. You can also rent beach things (body boards, umbrellas, chairs) by the day to make your stay even better!

Right on the ocean on a cliff with no pedestrians around. You can stay onsite and not see anyone except the other people renting rooms. Great staff, friendly and helpful. Nearby restaurants, and beach, tide pools ect... Definitely planning on a return visit to this area.

We had a great stay and wish I we could have extended it for one more night. I would have given 5 stars, but the shower drain was very slow. Other than that, everything was wonderful. I’d definitely recommend it to anyone looking to relax by the ocean!

We had a 2 bedroom unit and it was perfect for our family. Location, location! Terrace was a great spot to admire the ocean and sunsets. Great insulation- outside noise disappears once windows are closed. Pool is heated and had pool toys for the kids. No air conditioning in the bedrooms but plenty of fans. When hotel lot was full, it was easy to find free street parking. Would love to stay there again.

Charming Inn with a Gorgeous View

This was a great place to stay on vacation in San Diego. It's location right on top of Sunset Cliffs was amazing and we loved watching the sun go down over the water at the edge of the cliffs. A charming little place that was surprisingly quiet given the number of folks staying there, we would definitely stay here again if we evert go back to San Diego.
