There were a lot of complaints that it was loud, but we were there during the surf competition across the street, and we stayed Friday through Monday night, it didn’t seem loud at all. A great place and would recommend it again. It is small, but it’s convenient and clean.

Checked in after luncheon and had my high heel shoes on and bless his heart he carried our luggage up 3 flights of stairs. Due to us being there for a very special birthday, daughters 30th there was available an upgraded room, one with view of ocean, which he gladly gave us. The hotel is secure and in a prime a location with the beach literally across the street and easy access to many restaurants. Like being able to park the car without driving everywhere. Wlill highly recommend this hotel to others. Thank you for such a memorable experience!!

The room situation was very clean and comfortable, somewhat small, but still nice. The property is right on the beach, which was fantastic. There’s all types of stores and shops and restaurants in the exact area. The staff was great and incredibly helpful. It was a really nice time and experience.

I absolutely LOVE staying at the Ocean Beach Hotel. The whole vibe of the area is great. My husband and I stay downtown once a year but make sure to stay in Ocean Beach for a few days before we have to fly home. Staff is great and the room that we get is pretty basic but has all of the things we just have to have. Ex: the ocean, TV, AC, shower, and a, mostly, comfortable bed. It’s fantastic. A little pricey but fantastic. I can’t wait til we get to go back!!

I liked that this property because it is close to the beach and the room was clean and staff was friendly. I thought the room was rather small and the bathroom was very small as well. There are hardly any plugs in the room which is inconvenient.
