This hotel was right on Pacific Beach with a very short walk to the beach access stairs. Staff was very nice and helpful. Room was small (as other reviews stated) but very clean. All the essentials were in the room. Safe, coffee maker, refrigerator, comfy bed. Hotel has a huge stock of free to use beach gear- umbrellas, towels, chairs and more. Fabulous value for the location. Only downside is the description of parking was incorrect. There is NO option for third party bookings to use parking on site. Only option is street parking. Doable, but read signs carefully. Spaces open up after 8 PM. We found a spot two blocks away to leave the car for our two night stay.
