Great choice if you want to be close to the pier and shops and restaurants along Cabrillo Blvd. It's dog friendly which is why we selected it and the dogs loved being close to the Beach. The room was very nice, clean and the bed was comfortable. Wish the bathroom was larger but it's a minor complaint. Will stay again for sure

We were so impressed with this place! The room we reserved was double booked prior to us arriving but the manager made it right and offered us another available option with a partial refund. Everyone was so nice and accommodating! I wish we had been able to take advantage of the free bike rentals but next time for sure. All appliances are up to date and so clean. We will be returning!
