It is a budget friendly option if you are trying to save. However, we never once saw staff onsite. The room key was left by the front window and no one was there at checkout either. I did step on a gooey substance that stuck to my sock as soon as we walked in. As i was looking for a nightstand outlet, I noticed candy wrappers behind the nightstand. It also had a musky smell so we opened the windows. Then, our room was filled with a weed smell from I’m guessing our neighbors.

We rented at room with two queen beds and a small kitchen. The the walls are a bit thin so you can hear some muffled noise of other people. Didnt bother us with the AC fan on to mask the very quiet setting. One day some guys were up at 7am talking in loud voices outside but that is par for the course. We shopped at Vons and had a nice BBQ on the upper landing. A bit of an effort walking up the hill. Rented bikes to ride to botanical garden and did a snorkel at lovers cove. Lovely place, we'd stay there again.

Light in the main room didn’t work. Neighbors came in at 2am and partied all night, unable to sleep. Called the after hours number listed on the poster out front and it did absolutely nothing.

Will not be staying at El Terado Terrace ever again. Advertise as having 24-hour front desk service. Had to call to get a person to let us into the room. Smoke/fire detector found in a drawer. Had to beg for coffee and then when finally receiving a few pods for the Keurig coffee maker...all three were decaffeinated. Check out was even worse...we had called and left a message an hour prior for pick up and check out...no one called back, we left the key in the room ~ only to receive a call an hour after we left telling us that there was only one key to the room and it was the one that was given to us (this was never mentioned when the key was given). The person that called was rude and accusing. This property is rated a minus 5 on my list!
