This was my third stay at The Wayfarer, and I will definitely return. It's right on the Mission Beach boardwalk with lots of nearby bars and restaurants. The hotel pool and jacuzzi are clean and well maintained. The front desk staff is super friendly and helpful. The rooms are comfortable and cleaned daily. Overall, a super place to stay in Pacific Beach.

Overall stay

First off parking is horrible and don’t pay the extra fee in the garage cause the driveway pulling in will damage your vehicle.!!! Also most of the time the gate does not work so ur vehicle gets stuck in there tell maintenance comes. Plumbing sucks in the rooms and most of time no hot water. Overall 1 to 5 I would say 2.5 stars

Everything was great, except the parking

Loved the location, view, warm pool and spa, clean beach, and comfortable bed. Downside was the parking fee at $40/day. This is not New York City! Should include it in the price. Thanks, Karen

One of my Favorite

First time staying in that particular suite. I was amazing and kids loved it. Nothing like have a jacuzzi for the chilly nights. A heated pool for the kids to play and best to just walk out and have direct access to the beach for all was amazing.
