Perfect get away for SoCal locals.
Pros:

A cozy stay just minutes from the beach. Lots of dining options nearby. Easy driving access. A very nice little continental breakfast. Sizable rooms.

Cons:

Autos parked directly in front of rooms. Convenient, but also annoying when drivers leave headlights on to shine in rooms at night.
