As others have said, this is an authentic vintage hotel that is very clean. The look of the place is wonderful and the prices are appropriate for what you get. Service was just fine and the property is very well maintained. You can hear the ocean from outside your room.
I was pleasantly surprised that despite being next to 101, I heard little road noise with all the windows closed. If I was here during a time other than winter when I might have windows open I would bring ear plugs.
My experience was that the bed was comfortable, but with no mattress cover I felt sticky and sweaty most of the night. The pillows are terrible - wish I'd brought my own. The towels are also substandard - think cotton sandpaper. There was only soap, no shampoo in the bathroom.
Just down the road within walking distance are several good places to eat, with more across the street around the marina.
With some upgrades and TLC this place could be amazing and increase their rates. As it is the rates are very good and in line with what you get. If you are looking for low priced, clean, basic (but lacking in some areas) accommodation, this is a great place.
