    Don't take the ground floor rooms. You can hear every step. We had young children staying above us and the staff tried to have them not to jump on the floors and rolling their luggage back and forth across the floor. But we still were awaken a 5 am with the running and jumping. Not pleased.

    We really enjoyed our stay. The flowers and landscaping in the courtyard are so beautiful. The view of the ocean is great. The view of the sunset from there is next none. Such a friendly staff. You can walk to a nice little coffee shop/cafe. There is also a small convenience store across the street. The beds are very comfortable and a very clean room. Will definitely stay there again!!!

    We stayed for 3 nights and it was a wonderful experience. The pool was an excellent amenity! The location cannot be beaten - quiet and far from city noise. We walked to the town center each night for food and drink - about a 15 minute walk through beautiful trees and homes. The sunset cliff park was a short walk and each night we watch the beautiful sunset! The bus stop across the street came in handy for exploring other sights - 30 minute ride to Balboa Park!

    Super helpful and friendly staff at the front desk. Beautiful courtyard, lush with flowers. Awesome ocean view from the deck. Great location to visit San Diego and La Jolla. Steps away from the Sunset Cliffs Natural Park in Ocean Beach. Would definitely recommend to friends, family, and clients. Great stay all around.

    The staff were very welcoming and friendly. The property is beautiful, the gardens are full of the most amazing smelling flowers, I have never seen a hotel like it. There are so many comfortable chairs and sofas to relax on and watch the sunset. The air conditioning was extremely effective and quiet. The room has a good sized under-counter fridge with an ice-tray compartment. There is a coffee maker, microwave, wine glasses. The bed was comfortable. I didn’t want to leave and would return in a heartbeat if even We are back in San Diego. It was the best hotel in our 4 week tour of the west coast.

    Amazing ocean cliff views!! The sound of the waves crashing against the rocks literally put me to sleep; some of the best sleep of my life! Parking can get tricky, but seems like that’s normal for the Ocean Beach neighborhood. Can’t wait to stay there again. I hope to make this an annual stay!

    I love this hotel so much! This will be our 2nd time staying there & it definitely won't be our last! It is perfectly located near all the beaches & fun activities in SD. I love how Sunset Cliffs is within a 2 minute walking distance which is what keeps us coming back. The staff is always nice, & welcoming. The property & garden is very well kept. Next time the beach view is the room i would want. The pool view is great too since it is close to the entrance for us smokers it makes it easy to get in & out. I have no complaints about the times I have stayed here.

    This hotel was awesome. Right on the edge of the beach, internet was great, so clean, so fresh. The heated pool was a nice touch. I think the only negative I had was the lower deck made things look run down and trashy. On their website it says you can go down stairs to the ocean, but everything was closed off. There were also signs everywhere about the rules. Overall I would stay here again- its just the lower deck needs to be fixed.

    Booked a 2 bedroom suite with full kitchen for 3 nights. But in the middle of our only full day that we had to enjoy time, we were called and told that we needed to get our stuff out immediately when we were 40 minutes away at the zoo. Their hotel system showed only 2 nights. Even though I sent them the proof from Expedia of my reservation. Then said they would go move our stuff for us to another room or we needed to come move immediately. We had no option. We had to allow strangers to go through our stuff. They put us on the second floor even though I'm in a Mobility device. They literally packed all of our stuff in random bags and carried it upstairs. They put us in a room with two bedrooms that had queen beds, smaller than the ones that we were previously in. Creaky and loud. I also paid for a two-room suite with a full kitchen. This had no kitchen, just a mini fridge and a microwave. The living room is also half the size of the original room. The beds were squeaky. No bedding for the fold out bed. The bathroom had no water pressure and a screw sticking out of the drain. Several toiletries missing. I spent 3 of our 5 hours at the zoo (almost $80 a person to get in) dealing with the hotel and Expedia. It completely ruined our day. Then they charged me more for the lesser room than the suite. Zero customer service. Zero responsibility for messing up our trip. They had a wedding and obviously messed up their room assignments. So, they screwed us over instead. We were there to

    The location cannot be beat: the inn is right at the cliffs, overlooking the Pacific. We stayed on the second floor in a larger room with two bedrooms and were very comfortable. The room was clean and well appointed and the staff was wonderful. There's a heated pool on the property with basketball hoops, so our kids spent hours playing. In the morning, we walked from the hotel all the way to the Sunset Cliffs Natural Park -- what a vacation!

    Super cute, hip, hotel with beautiful grounds and the best view of the ocean. The kids loved the pool and all the pool amenities. Drink your beverage by the firepit for the best sunset view! The only reason why I would give it four stars, is because it could use some updating, but it appears the owners are making an effort.

    For those of us who do not like the big chain hotels, this Inn was a gem! It was clean, a great location with kind and accommodating staff.

The pool was clean and warm, and the incredible fragrance of the rose trees greeted us each time we went through the doors into the central garden area. Delightful!

    I stayed in the smallest room they offer, and the footprint is small but very well thought out, I especially love the full size closet with mirrored doors. The bathroom is also very smart, I absolutely love that the shower door can swing outward AND inward, so after the shower I can leave the door inside to drip dry and not have a wet floor. And clean. Oh my goodness, everything in the room is spotless. The public areas are the same. The glass wall never had a fingerprint on it, the pool surround was the same. The little courtyard was an oasis of calm with so many comfy seating options and spaces. I can't wait to come back next year!

    We may have not gotten the recently remodeled room but nothing beats the sound of the ocean lullabying you to sleep and the 2 bedroom suite and pull out couch allowed each of my kids to have their own space.

When you take a shower it's either hot or cold no in between, it doesn't drain well so you're standing in a foot of water while you're taking a shower. Beds are very uncomfortable but the view is absolutely phenomenal. It's worth it. I'll come back again. It's got a really good vibe

    I booked this place as a birthday gift because it was near Sunset Cliffs. I called to see if we could do early check. The front desk staff was very professional and nice. She had housekeeping work on it, and we were able to check in 2 hrs before. The room had ac and large enough space for the two of us. Lighting was well lit. It had a microwave, mini fridge, 2 wine glasses, wine opener, and coffee maker. Bathroom was fully equipped w/ the essentials. The pool and lounge furniture was a great touch for relaxing. We had a meal out there overlooking the ocean. There was parking spaces by the garage on first come firat serve. If it is full, we just parked on the road. Overall, we were happy with our stay. We would definitely book again.

    Hotel has historic charm, a dramatic setting on Sunset Cliffs, and a magnificent outdoor lounge right on the cliffs. 4 stars only because the mattress could have been firmer. We’ll definitely stay here again.

    We had a 2 bedroom unit and it was perfect for our family. Location, location! Terrace was a great spot to admire the ocean and sunsets. Great insulation- outside noise disappears once windows are closed. Pool is heated and had pool toys for the kids. No air conditioning in the bedrooms but plenty of fans. When hotel lot was full, it was easy to find free street parking. Would love to stay there again.

    The inn at Sunset Cliffs was nice, but not what I expected. The room a little cozier than expected, with no chair to sit on, no ice bucket, and no snacks or drinks nearby. We had to walk a little distance to get something to eat, or else take an Uber. Other than that, it was a great stay.

    First off, the desk person who greeted us, Terrell was rude and impatient. I tried to ask him questions and he talked down to me like I was bothering him. He rolled his eyes at me and wouldn’t even let me finish asking my question before he rudely interrupted me and spoke to me in a condescending manner. When I paid for the room at check in, he never gave me a receipt and didn’t bother to tell me there would be a $25/day charge for incidentals. Now I know there’s usually charges when you check into a hotel, but not providing a copy of the form I signed at check in or mentioning the charges was careless on his part. He told me I’d get a receipt upon checkout. The single queen room is very small. There’s no chair in the room if you don’t mind sitting on the bed. The windows and doors have blinds, but tinting the windows and doors for privacy and keeping the room cool would make better sense. The parking is only 10 spaces in 10 different driveways. If you don’t get there in time to get a driveway, you have to park in the street. The driveways where you park are poorly lit and the hotel seems too cheap to install any lighting back there for its guests! The pool hrs are from 9am to 9pm- but when we got back to our room at 9:40 pm to go to sleep, there were people still in the pool - so they obviously don’t enforce that particular rule! Ots an ok place to stay but not my 1st choice!

    It was a great location for a generations family vacations. My 75years+ parents were able to enjoy beach views comfortably. For the rest of us, restaurants, beach access, and shopping were a pleasant 20 minute walk. Full kitchens, dog friendly, friday night live acoustic guitar in the courtyard. It's a perfect place for family time.

    This is a quaint stay out of the main tourist drag of Ocean Beach. Come out one way and walk along the cliffs, and walk the other way to find plenty of cute indie restaurants and shops, all within a 10 minute drive of downtown San Diego. The staff are super friendly, the pool is good fun for kids and the views out over the ocean are incredible. You can also rent beach things (body boards, umbrellas, chairs) by the day to make your stay even better!

    The location was great, staff were very friendly, and the room perfectly suited our needs. The two criticisms are that the shower was pretty dirty and smelled of mold/mildew - perhaps just the byproduct of being in a coastal, humid area. Additionally it was in a pretty loud area so could hear lots of street traffic, and a big truck idled outside of the window for about 20 minutes one night.

    The tile walking up to office and door to the rooms, had big broken uneven tiles.My sister tripped on uneven tile and tried not to fall , but she did fall and even hit her head on the glass door entrance and had abrasions on her foot. The office worker came out to assist us, which was appreciated. The office worker said he would notify owner of tiles. Thank goodness my sister is ok( she is 73), and she was not seriously hurt and no broken bones. She could have been seriously hurt. The tiles are a huge hazard and should be repaired .

    This is a very cute little hotel. The staff is very friendly & room was clean & fresh. The view was beautiful and we enjoyed sitting on the patio in the sun. There are several non-chain coffee/bistro type places within walking distance of the hotel tha offered good food & friendly service. Our only complaint was the beds were not very comfortable. It felt like there was little or no padding over the springs. The patio furniture could use a refresh also. We would stay here again if we have the opportunity to vist San Diego again.

    I will start off by saying that, overall, our stay was very good. At my first impression, the property appeared smaller and shabbier than what is portrayed in the picture. However, it is a seaside inn, so weathering is to be expected. The pool is very small, but heated. (We did not use due to the temperature being a bit too cool.) The proximity to the Sunset Cliffs, Newport Beach, and various other attractions are a definitely plus. We had a 1 bedroom which had a full kitchen and living room. The room was clean and a nice space for a couples getaway. The bed was a little uncomfortable, but the linens and bedspread were very nice. The bathroom is small with the door almost hitting the toilet and no real space to put toiletries, however, the dual head shower was nice. My only complaint is that the staff should be more aware of which rooms they are putting groups with young children. We had a family above us that for hours sounded like they were performing a circus act! The children of the same family screamed the entire time they were in the pool which is literally two steps from the door of every room. Also, for those staying soon, they are doing what appears to be strengthening the seawall that lines the hotel, so there will be construction vehicles in any photo you take from the Inn. The workers did not start until around 8, which was fine for us, but just beware if you like to sleep in!!

    Beautiful and convenient location! I'm so glad i stayed here. The onyl reason why this isn't getting 5 stars is because there is construction going on that had a pile driver going early in the morning right on the cliff that the hotel sits on. I get migraines so it was terrible for me to wake up to. There was no warning from the hotel in adavnce and i had to oark on the street instead of the reserved spots for the hotel, and I was told as I parked my car for the night that my car might be towed if I parked there, even though the construction is obviously for the hotel.

    The heated pool took 3 days to get heated after asking 3 different employees who never turned the heat on. The tub didn’t drain. There were ants and ant traps in the kitchen. The blinds were thilthy. The exterior of windows so dirty you couldn’t see out of them. The sofa and bed were so old and nasty. Water was shut off for half a day because of a pipe issue. We were asked at night to move our car for construction the next day. Coffee in rooms and lobby were packets of foldgers! Cheers!
