2 hours on the phone with Expedia on a prepaid stay at this hotel. Lady at front desk was extremely rude and not helpful at all. Phone calls to the hotel were not answered and phone rang continuously. G. Gillett

The hotel is very good. Except by the bathroom in the rooms need some updates. The staff people are very friendly and serviceable. I recommend this hotel if you want to pass a great accommodation and to know the areas near to the hotel. Near to the hotel there are many places for to know.

Well managed, ageing hotel
Well managed ageing hotel. Very clean with helpful, friendly staff. Location is excellent. You do have to pay extra for parking, but that seems to be the case with most places in Southern California. Worth getting a harbour view room.

Terrible, dirty and unsafe.
Dirty, i felt unsafe. I ended up staying one night out of the three i booked. Checked out at 11pm on the second night due people banging on walls and i could hear everything and they were being rude and just felt unsafe. This was a solo trip with my dog. Being a female i let the front desk know that i was leaving and they didnt seem to care. Being 11pm. I booked anothe hotel near by. They were wonderful. Im trying to get my pet and parking fees back and at least a partial for the 2 nights booked.

It’s an old place so things are worn but it’s clean, neat and great location. If you want fancy, pay 10x more down the street in either direction.
