Reviews and Ratings
The hotel rooms were not only clean but also organized when we returned from our daily activities. The jacuzzi in our king bed oceanview suite was a fantastic touch, and the spaciousness added to the comfort of our stay. The location was perfect for exploring nearby restaurants and enjoying stunning sunsets, right on the sea cliff. However, the dining options were subpar and expensive, lacking variety. Despite this, the hotel's overall value for money was good.
The hotel offers an amazing view where you can hear the ocean, and the rooms are incredibly clean and comfortable. The service was welcoming and helpful overall, though there were some minor issues. The location is superb for exploring during both day and evening. The dining was good but had room for improvement. A place to consider for a relaxing stay near the beach.
What a delightful stay! The hotel offers spacious rooms with big, heavy furniture and large balconies where you can enjoy a glass of wine while watching the sunset over the ocean. The rooms are well-equipped with plates and utensils for convenient dining on the patio. However, noise from different areas can be a bit bothersome at times.
The hotel offers exquisite, spotless, and comfortable rooms; however, the balcony view was hindered by a noisy generator. The service was friendly and efficient, providing bikes and beach chairs upon request. The location is especially nice, but San Diego's cleanliness could be improved. The dining experience was mediocre, and the facilities were simple yet adequate.
I had an amazing stay at this hotel. The service was outstanding, and the room was just perfect. Being on the ground level with large patios made it feel like I had an extra room. The above-and-beyond service and room comfort exceeded my expectations.
