Clean facilities, great breakfast, ample free parking! Great location overall, just a few blocks from the beach. Very tasty breakfast and clean rooms. Heated pool and jacuzzi is a plus. It’s an easy drive to all attractions and much better area than staying in SD. The only complaint would be soundproofing, since we were bext to the pool, but that’s minor and ok with us. Would definitely stay here again.
