8/10 Good
"The hotel is near the I-5 freeway, so there is some noise from that. There has been some updating done to the rooms, but the quality of work is mediocre. For the most part, the room was pretty clean. However, there were some spider and spider webs in some of the corners of the room. It did have a kitchenette which was handy. Especially if you have children. There was a pool and a hot tub, which I did not go in. However it did look clean."

8/10 Good
"Our host Matt went above and beyond to assist us with any issues that came up. He was a truly extraordinary host, gracious, welcoming, and eager to make our stay at his lovely home as comfortable as possible. The bedrooms and bathrooms are comfortable, and the kitchen is equipped with every item you might wish to have (including multiple methods of coffee makers). Our extended family felt very relaxed and grateful to experience coastal living with breathtaking views. Thank you, Matt!"
