Amazing location- ok accommodation

Location is amazing- the building is old and being renovated. Our room was great- had a kitchen and a decent amount of space. One of the window panes was separated from the frame so it actually let air in. We noticed a lot of little things like that bc the building is old and still needs work. But the location and the staff- you can’t beat that!

There is nothing like waking up and walking right out onto the beach. There is nothing like asking for an early check in and being accommodated, 2 years in a row. There is nothing like staying in a place that feels like home, no need for luxuries, just safety and peace and quiet. This was my 2nd time staying at this property and I'm already planning my next trip this summer. The service can't be beat, and for a girl who just wants to get to the beach quickly, there isn't a better place to stay.

Lovely room, excellent service.

The room was lovely. The windows were rattling and not very sound proof, but they are waiting on new windows to arrive. The building is a work in progress, but it is in great condition for it's age and it is in a beautiful location. He was kind enough to let us leave our suitcases in the lobby while we roamed the beach waiting for our room to be available and he gave us a chance to check in earlier than the standard time.

Primo location and local feel.

I travel for work and love to stay at places with a local feel. I dont review as a rule unless its exceptionally good or bad. This place has an unusually good location and unusually good local feel.

Location is amazing!! Older building, that has been repurposed into a hotel. They were still in the midst of Reno’s. The hotel kind of has single room Hostel vibes. Rooms are nice, showers are like a phone booth. The man checking you in was nice. Issue: The sound carries in this old building and the couple above me (with a dog) were fighting with each other all night. She stormed out and came back several times (with the dog). It was brutal. I was unable to get any sleep and there are no staff at the hotel overnight to deal with this situation. The bed was comfortable, the staff were nice but I have to give the place a poor rating because of my experience.

We loved the old charm of the building-it was like staying back in time. The room was steps from the sand, which is why we selected it in the first place. We loved walking to the restaurants. As others have mentioned, parking is a bit tricky but manageable. While tastefully decorated, the room needed some minor improvements. The shower mat was gross and coming apart, which is a cheap and easy fix. There weee also a couple of places with holes in the wall stuffed with paper towel, so an easy drywall repair would fix it right up. It didn’t impact our stay, just not a great look. There doesn’t seem to be any air or heat, which was fine in March when we stayed as there are space heaters in the room. I imagine it would be very uncomfortable in the summer, even with the provided fans. But, part of the charm is that it’s not changed much since it was built. Overall, we enjoyed our stay-it was a new adventure for us, and you can’t beat the location.

Beachfront location is unbeatable. Just steps from the pier and shops and eateries. Check in was very easy and parking was simple with the parking permit that the property provided. Room was very clean and cozy.

Jay the owner was quick to get our boys set up in their rooms once we arrived. We got the 2 bedroom large suite for our boys. It faced the ocean. They both loved it. The room was clean and spacious. One unexpected perk was getting a parking pass to park on the street. The only downer for them was that they were not able to meet the resident cat, Gilligan. We will stay here again when back in Cali

Amazing little place! Stayed here with my boyfriend for one night before flying out of LAX. Rooms are cute. Great views and right next to a cute walkable strip. Staff were very kind and found me to make sure everything was right with parking. Owner was on call when I needed him early in the morning. Absolute five stars!! Would stay again!

Quirky accommodations in a fantastic location. Historic building that’s under continuing renovation/improvement. Room was super clean, check in and access processes are unique- if you’re comfortable with atypical accommodations this is a great value.
