8/10 Good
"The location was awesome, with views of the ocean, and convenient for walking around Ocean Beach. One drawback was a third floor room, but no elevator. Be prepared to carry your bags up three flights of steps. The staff was friendly and the room served its purpose. No big amenities, the A/C worked okay, at best; however the views from the room and the lounge area of the third deck were worth it."
