So this is a space away from the hustle and bustle of the city. It's a literal walking distance from the ocean beach. It's in a nice area, parking is included and convenient (no security or gate though, so beware). It's safe-ish to walk at night, there are some quaint restaurants. I've stayed here multiple times and I feel safe for the most part. The building is outdated and the concierge always has their "out to lunch" sign: sometimes they're there, sometimes not. If you're going for that specific area i recommend. If you want to go into the city, it's a bit more of a hassle with the train, but the stops are literally outside the hotel so it's convenient.
