The hotel was in an excellent location. Many things were within walkable distance. The balcony area overlooking the cove was amazing. The room was a bit small for the price but the bedding and the bed were very comfortable. Had a good air conditioner as well. At night you could hear a lot of street noise and tables and chairs moving overhead in the rooftop bar. But I was so worn out I didn't have any issues falling to sleep. I do wish they offered a few more small amenities but overall an excellent place to stay.

Location very busy and crowded. Not much for parking unless you valet. Hotel bathrooms are tiny with small shower and no sink countertop space. Front desk staff were friendly, other service staff not so much. Best thing about hotel is it’s in walking distance to beach, restaurants and shops. Hotel price you pay is based on location and not amenities. Rooftop restaurant is so-so and pricey. $17 for chips and guac.

This place is top rated in the area for a reason! You can literally have the valet park your vehicle and never need it until you leave. The staff were personable, attentive, and took very good care of us. We were so impressed, we booked our return for our Anniversary in September before we left!

I really wanted to like this property, it is an amazing location and the front desk staff are so nice, but it ends there. My “Ocean view“ room had a view of the street and I couldn’t have my blinds open because it was on the first floor and so everyone in the restaurant across the street could see into my room. The room also smelled like a combination of mildew and cigarette smoke and the bad was pretty uncomfortable. If you stay here, definitely stay on a higher floor. Do not stay on the first floor. Those rooms are right on the street and the doors open up to basically the sidewalk so it is really loud at night and the security isn’t great and of course there’s Zero privacy.

Disliked: Amenities
j In The staff was all super friendly. They all seem to handle more than one job, so that is an accomplishment. The good: The location is terrific; right next to the the grand pink hotel, La Valencia. We had a balcony, which was lovely, as we like outdoor space when we travel and were able to see and hear the ocean. There are wild parrots in the morning flying everywhere. The not so good: No elevator The rooms are small, the bathroom tight, 20” vanity with a big vessel sink may not be the best choice, no place to set anything. Bring earplugs; they provide them, which is good. Just may be your fit, it’s a bit noisy on the street. The carpets are damp, they need to go. The worst is actually the easiest fix get rid of the lumpy pillows, offer down and foam that’s it. They had new pillows and get rid of the carpet. I would definitely stay again.
