The surf motel was great, room 218 the family suite was big and nice everything worked great the air conditioner the heater worked, privacy was great we had parking for our car, there's restaurants around nice safe secure area my family really enjoyed the surf motel. The price is really good cheap, $100 deposit cash they gave us back our deposit no questions asked. Would recommend especially the room we stayed in when we go back to San Francisco we'll be going back to the surf motel.
