My wife and I stayed here as her brother lives just up the street. The neighborhood is near Ocean Beach. Its a bohemian area, but growing up quick as you see a lot of young families and couples w/dogs strolling around some cute cottages/digs, but abeit very expensive digs. The hotel is rustic with a 60's/70's flair to it. The rooms have been updated. The "Poolside Queens" are very small but furnished nicely. The bathrooms are very well maintained. For the money ($135/room for poolside queen), you are getting a very good deal. The property sits on the edge of a cliff down to the ocean. No beachside, but cliffside. They have chairs on the patio to hang out and eat your morning bites provided (coffee, tea, bagles, muffins, etc) for free. They have a heated, small pool. The staff is nice. They also have wireless internet. Obviously it was off-season, and not very crowded. Parking was on-street as the few off-street parking they usually provide in the alley is not available due to construction aside the property (no noise). I can see that if the property was filled to capacity and maybe had noiser clients you would hear them in adjoining rooms and above, but it was quiet there. The only surprise we got was checking out and told that our $135/night roommate had a weekend surcharge which is very deceptive. Why not tell us upfront that the real room rate is $10/night more on weekends. We paid this, but thought it was very deceptive. They also tagged phone call to the room that we did not make. Other then this, it was a very nice property and locals can't believe how little the hotel charges!!
