We had an amazing 7 night stay over the holiday week. The location was perfect for our family. So many things were walkable including cafes, casual eats, nice restaurants, shopping, and of course the ocean. Other popular San Diego locations were a short drive. Morning runs were beautiful and safe along the coastline. Will be coming back again!

Lovely location, peaceful, great character/vibe. So much to walk to within 5 minutes. Comfortable rooms, lots of space. Parking is easy and safe. The staff member at check in, Elizabeth, was incredibly helpful and knew the area inside out. Every one of her recommendations, from restaurants, places to see, where to find all the very specific things we were seeking as well as her directions to get everywhere were spot on! The photos of this hotel do not do it justice, it was way nicer than we expected! Sincerely hope we can stay here again on a future trip!
