The stay was absolutely wonderful! We stayed in a king room overlooking the courtyard, and it was both clean and cozy. Breakfast baskets were available each morning, and the staff was friendly and welcoming. The location is perfect, just a short walk to the beach. Overall, an amazing experience!
The cute breakfast basquet they give you is a nice gesture and the staff is extremely friendly and helpful.
Loved the rooms and the closeness to the beach for a reasonable price. Would definitely come back!
Great location and good value for the hotel stay. Room was spacious and clean. Loved the Tesla charging that was provided at no additional cost. The walls are a bit thin so you may hear your neighbors, but ours was mostly well behaved. ;-) Overall, I would recommend Pacific Crest!

Friendly staff. Room was clean; amazing hospitality- good continental breakfast.
Staff was kind, room was overall nice clean and looks new overall, if I’m coming for a short trip I would stay again. Parking can be tough in the evening, there aren’t really enough spots and you may have to park on the street which is not something I like as I have small children. As long as you are used to staying in renovated small hotels and not 5star hotels this place is great, and overall better than most. I’ll be back!

The room was clean and lovely. Great location, walking distance to the zoo and beach. Happy with self-parking. Enjoyed the complimentary breakfast basket you can take back to your room. Would consider the stay again.
Clean, but small ish room. I thought I would have a private deck, but you just get one big one that is shared with next door neighbor and opens up to the entire floor. Overall, it was fine for a one night stay with my dogs. Had streaming services on the tv, but didn’t work, so we watched cable. Staff/owner was very kind and accommodating.
