This hotel is just a 2 minute walk from East Beach! It is close to the freeway and some great food spots! The tacos and batting cages down the street are a must! The staff is very friendly and accommodating! The room was nothing fancy, but it was clean and spacious enough. It can be a bit noisy in the downstairs rooms; I could hear the noise from the people on the room above me, but nothing too annoyingly loud. There is plenty of free parking on the property. It has both covered and uncovered parking available behind the hotel. I will definitely stay here again!

The room wasn't big but the bed was comfortable. Parking was very convenient, the beach was a 5 minute walk away. Their breakfast basket was so thoughtful. I didn't use the pool but the pool area looked nice. The staff was very friendly. I would stay here again.
