I had a mix of experiences at the hotel. On the bright side, I could watch surfers and whales while feeling cozy in the room, but the missing shower curtain upon arrival was a letdown. Despite this, the room was ultimately comfortable.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were kind of small for the price, but being near the beach was a plus. However, my room didn't offer an ocean view as expected, and there was a delay during check-in which was a bit frustrating.

I truly enjoyed my stay at the hotel. The location is amazing, right on the beach with stunning views. The rooms were very clean and comfortable, but the air/heat unit was a bit of a letdown. The service was friendly and accommodating, although there were hints of staff still in training. The dining experience had its highs and lows, but overall, the hotel is definitely worth considering for a relaxing getaway.

Staying at this hotel was a real treat for my whole family. The rooms, though a bit warm at times, were front and center to the ocean with a private balcony offering stunning views. The service was friendly and courteous, addressing our concerns promptly. The location was fantastic, just a short stroll away from the beach, restaurants, and shops. However, the dining experience fell short with disposable, self-serve options. Overall, a memorable stay with great beach access and friendly service.

I couldn't get enough of the balcony with stunning views and nearby vineyards, perfect for enjoying wines, but the absence of an ocean view was a letdown. The location is superb with easy access to the pier and restaurants. However, the missing shower curtain was a inconvenience during my stay.

The hotel has a vintage look with older furniture, like a 2-3 star hotel, but it's located on a fantastic beach overlooking the oceanfront construction. The balcony on the first floor offered a view of the ongoing remodeling work which may not suit everyone. The staff was helpful but seemed nervous at times. Great for individuals with mobility issues due to its convenient location, though waking up to an early morning door pounding can be unsettling.
