Liked the option of a separate bedroom from the dining and kitchen; our suite had two tvs and two fireplaces and complimentary presto logs for fireplaces; easy walk to the beach; free parking was good; rooms were a little dated but still ok and clean; staff were friendly; safe neighborhood; lots of restaurant options about a mile away from resort and two miles from Aquarium and Cannery Row.

The property was old, but relatively clean. The bed wasn’t very comfortable, but I’m used to my own adjustable foam bed. We usually stay at a higher end hotel and the beds there were more comfortable. For the price it was in a great location and suited my needs for this trip.

Nice, clean, and close to beach. I booked this place because it had a fireplace but I was disappointed not so much because it wasn't a gas fireplace but you had to use a Duraflame log which only lasts an hour and a half and you have to purchase any additional logs for $5. Which I thought was ridiculous! But what really bothered me was that the chemical smell gets trapped in the room, so I couldn't tolerate another log even if I wanted to, even though I did purchase an additional log, for this reason I gave this place an"average" rating!
