Super cute room, very clean and comfortable. My husband and I stayed for our anniversary. The only thing I would recommend for people staying there is to use some white noise on an app or bring a machine because the traffic noise is noticeable. We will definitely stay there again!
This was one of my favorite stays ever! The room didn't feel like a hotel room at all, so nicely decorated, extremely comfortable bed, and a bookshelf stocked with books. It was just so cozy, I stayed up too late, reading and enjoying the experience. 10/10
Careful of the stoop. It is easy to miss and I fell on the first day and scuffed my knee. It was a rough start. For the price and location all in all I was satisfied. Funny smell in the room. Chemical vs someone had been smoking something
Matress number two was worn. No knives in the room. Meh,
I could hear the neighbors, but not too bad. They provided ear plugs. I was about three blocks and a neighborhood walk to the ocean cliff view. Awesome
My only criticism is the shower drained very slow.
On the positive, the room and the hotel grounds were wonderful.
Connie was also the nicest person I have dealt with on the phone in ages. Thanks Connie!
