Great experience! Room was perfect for a long weekend. Staff was very kind and helpful. Nothing special but very clean, updated, safe, and had everything we needed for a long weekend. Great location (if you like to walk). About a 20 min walk to pacific beach and 10 mins to public beach access point between pacific beach and bird rock. Lots of cute coffee shops within a 5 min walk along wth a CVS next door which was very convenient.
