Wonderful experience

The hotel staff was incredibly helpful and friendly. The room was clean, decorated nicely,quiet, and very comfortable beds. There is no restaurant or bar at the hotel, but for a cost they offered hot breakfast and mini bar for 1 hour in the afternoon. The advertisement for complimentary breakfast and wine reception was misleading. There are many, many restaurants, and other things within walking distance. Parking is $20 per night unless you're able to find street parking which we usually did. We had a partial ocean view and were lucky enough to be on the 3rd floor and further in which gave us a great view. I would definitely recommend this hotel!

fantastic views!

Hotel staff was very friendly and helpful. I wanted roses and champagne sent up to the room and they took care of it right away. The view of the Pacific Ocean from the balcony was beautiful and the beach was only steps away. My only complaint would be the elevator, which was shockingly slow for a hotel that only has 3 floors. Other than that, it was a great stay and I would highly recommend it.

Beautiful!

I stayed for a week and truly enjoyed my stay. The staff was friendly and the room was very nice. Every day I walked up and down the boardwalk. Lots of great places to eat nearby. Transporttion was an issue; no shuttle, but there was a bus stop nearby. The hotel nickel and dimed a lot of services, for instance 10 dollars a day for internet, and parking fee was 20 dollars a day. But all in all it was one of the nicest places I've stayed.

Really nice!

Loved the room (even with only a "partial view"). Would stay again. Right on the ocean and easy walking for relaxing or heading to the nearby shops and restaurants. FYI, breakfast wasn't comped as reflected in the hotel's description; $9 - not that that was important to me. Just don't be surprised. Definitely would recommend this hotel.
