Good place, nothing crazy but priced fairly! Short walk to the beach and downtown was killer for us! Staff is nice and the housekeepers do a great job. We spent most of our time at moonlight beach and at the shops and restaurants downtown. The Encinitian was a great place to stay between adventures! I would definitely come back.
