10/10 Excellent
"Three words describe this hotel. Location. Location, Location. The hotel is across the street from San Clemente Pier, great restaurant on the pier, across the street from a trolley stop. Only about 15 minutes walking distance from old town. There a couple restaurants for a quick option below the hotel."
