The room was very clean. The property was easy to find and conveniently located. Everything we wanted to do was within 10 minutes. We went to the wharf and aquarium. There is a nice kids park across the street from the lodge. A walkable distance. I will be staying there again next time I’m in town. I also brought my pet, there was an extra $40 charge but that’s expected. Wish the beds were firmer, but that’s more of a personal preference.

Fantastic stay! I was very happy with the location - walkable to attractions (including a great walking path, park, and beach access), convenient, and safe. Staff were friendly and accommodating. Parking was easy. Not too noisy. The courtyard along with pool and hot tub was charming. Microwave, refrigerator, and coffee & tea in room were a nice perk. Very happy with this budget friendly property, and will return next time I'm in town.

Wish I had more time at this lodge. Found this last minute while booking on our PCH drive. Super cute. Friendly staff. Didn’t get to take advantage of the pool and fire pit…we were super tired but did walk from lodge to restaurants and beach.

No breakfast, old but renovated. Comfy bed.

The hotel is very old, but has been renovated. The pool was warm and wonderful for December 18th. The bed was comfortable, but pillows were a little sad. There is no breakfast. It is walkable to downtown. The area was safe and close to the waterfront.
