You have to check in at a separate location that is several blocks away from where you’re staying. If we had to walk with all of our luggage that would’ve been very very difficult. The room itself was fine and roomie. The price was good.

reuniting with family

It's the beach in San Diego for people who can't afford paying $300+ per night. If you're just going to chill at the beach, it's fine, but definitely a 70's motif. Plenty of good food/nightlife withing walking distances.

Great location, multiple options for parking near the beach. Only issue was the sink in the bathroom took far too long to drain. Decent price for the location, would still stay again.
