Quiet, chill, friendly, beautiful spot.
Pros:

Loved this place! It's such a little hidden gem. Nothing fancy, just cute, cozy, clean, super friendly staff, and an AMAZING location right on the cliff edge. We slept with the windows open and listened to the waves all night. Beautiful little courtyard and nice heated pool. Very chill vibes and lots of nice places to sit and look at the ocean. We walked the 1 mile to the downtown Ocean Beach area every evening for dinner and drinks. Walked all over the Sunset cliffs and explored tide pools. Will definitely be back, it was a great, quiet place to spend a getaway weekend. Easy Uber from the airport too.

Cons:

My only small complaint was that the pool closed early. We'd have definitely stayed in it longer every night! Such a nice end to a day full of walking everywhere.
