being right infront of the beach was very nice and convenient, although being that close to the beach does come wish humidity. the rooms should come with ceiling fans to help with air flow. i’ve also never stayed in a hotel without a microwave, but other than those 2 things it was a great stay and the staff was great

Great hotel across the street from the Ocean Beach. The room was small but but nicely updated. The beach access was great with many restaurants within easy walking distance. It is the beach area so there is a wide variety of people in the area. Anywhere from homeless on up. Just be prepared to accept everyone.
