Pros:

San Clemente Inn has a variety of amenities to choose from during your stay. The rooms are great and spacious, and a great value at Booking.com rates. I would highly recommend this location for families and single travelers (like me) alike.

Cons:

The only issue I have with this location is the parking fee of $25. It seems more like an upcharge than a necessary cost for the property since there's no demand for parking in the general area.

Cons:

The room was not clean to it best. Found dirty linen after two days of sleeping on it. Had to purchase linen for rest of stay. Door in bathroom not wiped off has nasal discharge on it.

Don't recommend this place for how much it cost and what you get in return. I will never return!
Pros:

Parking fee was $25 for not even 24 hours. Room was ok, but not clean, outdated and bathroom was so much in need of reapir. Murphy bed had no bedside lamp so I had to use a flashlight to find my way to bed. Reception was rude in the morning. I would not stay there again. Don't recommend for the price and what you get.

Cons:

Hardly anything!

Pros:

The common areas that guests can use were nice.

Cons:

Room was not ready until an hour after the check in time. There was a whole in the wall of the room. External building lighting not working so walk to room was dark. The power and water were both turned off during out stay. We were only there for one night so a late check in at 5:00 pm check in and a 10:00 am check out. It did not leave a lot of time.
