Great breakfast and nice staff but location was not great.
Pros:

The room was great but the view was terrible just some the parking lot. Maybe the other side facing the ocean is better but they get the freeway as well. The breakfast was the best part along with the powerful ac.

Cons:

The pool was disappointingly small. If one family is using it, it’s basically full.
The whole hotel had a scent that I wouldn’t say was bad but it wasn’t good.
The freeway is so loud. It’s right next to it unfortunately.

Pros:

Room was ok, clean and a good size.

Cons:

Hotel was run down looking. Breakfast was very poor, hardly any choice and not particularly nice. No drinks to choose from.

Value for money was not good. I have stayed in hotels that were half the price that were nicer than this.

Affordable and Central
Pros:

I liked how central it is to downtown and the pier area. Didn’t have to take my car anywhere. Also liked the cleanliness and friendliness of staff. Free breakfast and light snack and drink were great too!

Cons:

I didnt like the sound pollution from the freeway, but thats about it. In the room you couldn’t hear too much but on the covered balcony you could.
