10/10 Excellent
"Great breakfast, which included a variety of hot and cold items that were rotated and available each day at no extra costs. Well maintained facilities. Helpful and friendly staff. Extended our stay there with no complications. Nice location next to the harbor. We saw a couple of sea lions from our balcony nearby. Very easy for us to recommend them to other travelers especially those going to Channel Islands to visit the national park :)"

10/10 Excellent
"The landscaping was spectacular, and the passage to and on the beach were equally impressive. We love the Gulf Stream for coffee and simple breakfast. The pool was easily accessible and was well maintained. The rooms were very spacious, (maybe the decor was slightly dated). Would definitely stay here again; really enjoyed our three day vacation."
