The room was amazing! Decor was so cute and the rooms were spacious and comfortable.the staff was great as well, very friendly and helpful. The balcony was also great for relaxing on. We loved that we could walk to the beach and the bay with in a few minutes. There were also cute shops and great restaurants within a few minutes walk. This will definitely be our go to spot for our next vacation.

While the property is adorable and close to everything, there is little to no sound barrier between the upstairs and downstairs rooms. We were unlucky enough to have incredibly noisy neighbors above us every night. With the hardwood floors, we could hear everything that was said from parents arguing with their children about homework at 6:30 the morning to kids running back and forth and jumping on the bed. If you want literally any sleep or downtime, ask for an upstairs room.

Good location

Stayed in the suite with two bedrooms and the balcony for 3 nights. The rooms were very clean and nice. We used the pull out sofa as well and it was comfortable. The location is about two blocks to the beach or one block to the bay. Good location for active families. There was more traffic than I expected from families picking up children from a nearby day camp. The walls that connect to the room next door are very thin. Bring ear plugs at least for one person. The toilet is heated and has its own remote bidet. The shower was nice as well. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The parking was a mess though. We paid and someone took our spot one night. There was nearby parking for free though. It was just hard to find. Great view from the balcony and the fire pit was fun at night. I would stay here again and just bring earplugs and expect chaotic parking.

The staff was super nice, but didn't share a lot of info like what the name is of the place to get free rentals and how that works. Our couch/ bed was broken. They brought up a blow up mattress. Our blender didn't work after we already bought stuff for smoothies. We paid for parking, but had a van that didn't fit in all the parking areas, but we weren't assigned a parking spot so we were so worried about leaving. With that said it's in a great spot next to mission Bay and the boardwalk. We loved that both beds were king sized and the 50's style decoration. The toilet was interesting. It was a bidet with a warm seat .
