The roof top view was excellent. The people working there were helpful and happy. Breakfast and coffee were the best. Fresh flowers in bathroom and at breakfast! Parking was close and secure. Very clean rooms!! I did not mind paying 10.00 for parking, but, I did not like paying 10.00 more for (taxes?) I was not told about. No screens on windows, so, could not leave open.

It was a very sweet little property that goes out of its way to make up for size and age with attention to detail, cleanliness, comfort and personability. Loved the welcome note on our pillow on arrival; the turn-down service every evening with a mint on each pillow; the relaxing spa music that greeted us back to our room each evening after a day at the beach; the beach toys on loan; the use of a wide library of DVD's; and - a good way to the heart of my husband - the free cookies. (The free parking and free breakfast really sealed the deal.)

The location is amazing. Could walk anywhere for great food or entertainment. Will be in the area again next year at this time and will book my entire stay here. Staff is friendly and gave great recommendations for food and where to go for a run.

The hotel was very clean and the friendless of the staff was excellent! Every evening we had our pillows taken off the beds and covers pulled back ready to jump in and chocolates left on our pillows...such a simple touch but very nice! The breakfast availability was excellent, we were able to use the kitchen to make tea and coffee whatever time of the day we liked and in the afternoon, cookies were served, which were awesome :)! The location of the hotel was perfect, all you had to do was cross the road to the beach. During our stay over the past two weeks in the USA...we have stayed in six different hotels in different parts of California and this hotel by far, has definitely been one to remember :)!! There was nothing we didn't like or could fault....would recommend the hotel to anyone and we will definitely be returning!

The hotel staff is very friendly, always helpful with a smile. The "open kitchen/breakfast room" was really nice, feels like being at home. The rooms are VERY clean. The hotel is ideally located, close to the beach and many small restaurants and bars. We enjoyed our 4-day stay at this hotel a lot. the WIFI signal is very weak at moments

Location of the hotel to the beach. We loved the ocean from our window and the panoramic view of the ocean and bay from the rooftop desk was unbelievable. We will be back.

The desk clerk was very friendly and helpful--gave us a complete tour of everything as we checked in. The other staff people were also very nice. I liked the location because it was close to the beach and our favorite restaurants. Nothing....it was all great!

Loved the partial ocean front room; could open the wall of windows and get the fresh beach air. Loved it! The roof top deck with 360 degree views of the ocean and bay made a perfect happy hour venue with family; bring your own wine and cheese it's perfect and free!

The place is legit as far as location, staff, and facilities.... But, the price is a little high. I'm a firm believer in "you pay for what you get", though.

We recently stayed for two nights during our honeymoon trip across California. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful, and very kindly offered us an upgrade on arrival given the occasion. Rooms are large and very clean, and the pictures do not do them justice as they are very well done out. Beach is just across the road and it's very near the local restaurant/bar scene. Breakfast and home baked cookies also excellent. Thanks for a fantastic stay!

This hotel is great! I was traveling alone and they made me feel comfortable and right at home! From the homemade cookies to the personal note on my bed, they made the stay memorable! I would highly recommend staying here to anyone looking for a personal touch to their hotel experience! Close to shopping, restaurants and of course, the beach!
