Location: YES. Perfect location for walking to the beach, shopping & restaurants. Hotel was very nice, clean & our 2nd story room with patio was great as our view was the blue Pacific! The staff was very nice, helpful & super friendly, especially the pretty young lady with red hair at the front desk. We did NOT have reservations but they treated us as if we did & got us a room immediately during a holiday weekend.

Unfortunately, due to the holiday, there were a lot of Tweens/teens/young adults had run of the house-LITERALLY!... Running up & down the halls all hours of the night, tossing water balloons from one balcony to the next and a large group had separate rooms on each side of us so we awoke to broken balloons & cigarette butts in our patio. I did complain the 2nd night, I guess some one DID make them quiet down the next night for the most part. I did have to threaten bodily harm to the 3 teenage boys next door when they knocked on my door "by mistake" they said...twice before dawn, thinking it was their buddies room. Hotel apologized profusely. I understand they can't control all their guest's behavior but it was tough to get a good night sleep when those brats were having a toga-party!

Oh, the best part, it's PET friendly too!

Take a walk up the road to this tasty Mexican "drive-in" style joint... good food, especially breakfast!

Location doesn't get any better. The inn is located right on the beach, just adjacent to the pier. It's the nicest place in the down town area and everything is within walking distance. The pier and ocean view rooms all have balconies which is worth the extra price. Rooms are nicely appointed and include in-room refrigerators. Breakfast exceeds expectations-- very decent coffee, fresh fruit, a variety of breads and bagels for toast, muffins and pastries, juices and make-your-own malted waffles (yum!). I checked a wide range of sources and found that the hotel's official site offered the best room rates. I definitely plan to return!
