Nice inn, great location, very clean, everyone was nice and helpful. We even had a seagull visit every morning as soon as we pulled the curtain. No parking on the weekend but plenty of street parking close by, so not an issue at all.

We had a great stay at La Serena Inn! It’s location is perfect for walking to nearby shops, restaurants, and the pier. Staff was super friendly and helpful. Our room was clean - I’d only wish their beds had frames that covered the bottoms so things wouldn’t get lost under. That’s my only critique - otherwise I highly recommend!

This is our second stay. The room was clean and well appointed. The window pane needed changing as there was moisture inside (not that important because the view was of a parking lot). Also, the outlet on the wall with the TV (by the table) did not work which made doing the handiwork we always bring hard to do.
