Location, Location, Location!

LOVE the centralized location of this place on one of the main strips in Ocean Beach! Had no reason to leave the area as everything was in walking distance with plenty of spots for food, drinks and the beach close down the street! Definitely interested in staying at this place in the future!

This place & area is advertised as a safe/welcoming place for people of all walks, this just isn't true. If you don't fit inside "the box", I would advise against this particular vacation spot. Most people will treat you like an oddity and stare/say something, and those who don't will still treat you like an inconvenience at best. The other guests were standoffish and distant, the staff seemed aloof about it all and unconcerned about guests. Stay safe!!!
