Great room and location for the price! We had a great time staying at Los Bungalows and will be our go to spot to stay in the future any time we visit San Diego. Plenty of things to do and see within walking distance. We drove and they have free parking right there which is nice. It is a contactless property and it was very easy to communicate with them. They respond very quickly and are incredibly nice. They checked in via text a few times to ensure we had everything we needed. Love this place!

Great experience overall with no complaints! The room was very spacious and nice, and was spotless when we arrived. The parking was very conveniently located on property and the location to the beach was perfect, it's literally across the small road across from the property. The dishes, glasses and toiletries provided were sufficient and we definitely plan on staying again. I've noticed some complaints in some reviews about the contactless check in process being tedious and I assure you it's not. They are in communication with you the whole time and as long as you follow the very simple instructions there are absolutely zero issues, and if you need anything at all there is a text number you can reach out to and they are very very responsive. We definitely will return to this property again when visiting this location!

For the most part the room was clean. The area around the base of the bed and walls had markings on them as if from the mop. There were also handprints on the pocket doors. Nothing major, but noted.

Looking for a 5 star resort? Keep scrolling. Looking for a small, quiet, clean, bug free room with a comfortable bed that’s less than a minute walk to the sand and 5 minute walk to the pier? If so this place is great. We stayed here 7days and it was great! Check in kind of irritated me at first but wasn’t a big deal.
