Amenities are delightful - welcome refreshments, s'mores kits, hot chocolate bar, fruit infused ice water carafes, scooters, bikes. Room service and carry out prices are the SAME for Pacific Hideaway! Staff are excellent. I gave 4 stars, because I pulled out the sofa bed, ready to collapse, and found no bedding. 3 phone calls and an hour later, bedding was delivered. I have never needed bedding delivered. Easy beach/pier walk.

The heater is blasting cold air. The technician says there is no Freon in the system and he can’t do anything. The front desk said they’d give us a new room, but when we were ready to move they said they sold the room to a new guest and all rooms were taken. We’ve slept with no air or heat. It was a bad experience last night. I can’t wait to get out of here.
