4.5 for us

Nicely renovated older hotel. Very clean, friendly, helpful staff. Handy snack shop in lobby open 24/7. Great location for access to beach, lots of shopping and unique small restaurants. Rooms are nicely furnished and attractive. But a bit smaller than newer hotels because it is an older building. Not a very quiet place due to the proximity to the busy retail and beach area and air traffic overhead(not all night, shuts down about 10 or 11) , but interesting with all the activity and variety(though it includes those with difficult living situations). Easy dedicated parking, great common area courtyard with ocean view and lots of seating.

I booked an ocean view room, but it’s actually only a partial ocean view. That should be specified on the website. The balcony does not feel private-it’s separated by a partition from the next balcony. The one next to us had an empty liquor bottle on the table, we didn’t feel comfortable using the balcony at night. Gave 3 stars mainly for location. Rooms were clean, parking is private. Rooms not sound proof. We heard our neighbors talking, laughing from 3.30 am till morning. Very overpriced, will not be coming back.

Booked a last minute stay so I paid for what I got but the hotel rooms are nice. You can tell it’s an older property that they are trying to renovate. The staff is super friendly and accommodating. The door to my first room would not work with any of the keys, not even management keys, so they upgraded me to a partial ocean view room. Hotel is within walking distance of everything and not too far from Sunset Cliffs. The local bars are nice but the area is a little run down and a bit dirty. A night it’s very noisy.

Loved the hotel! Staff were friendly. Dog friendly hotel that allowed you to leave your dog in the room if you need to go out. EXTREMELY convenient location/parking. Everything was walkable! Only thing I'd recommend for the hotel is to install towel drying hook/rack, (maybe behind bathroom door?) and some sound insulation under the front door. You can definitely hear people talking in the courtyard and sometimes even outside the hotel. Note that this hotel is directly under a flight path so you will definitely hear planes fly by often (but to be fair, all of OB will likely hear these planes). 10/10 will book again.
