The A/C in the room didn't function very well.

The location was ideal for what I needed to do. The staff was friendly & helpful.

Not much.

Great location and wonderful view. You can walk all over Encinitas from this Motel. The motel is older but it is clean and updated. The bed was comfortable and very quiet at night.

I didn’t like leaving… Wished I had more time

We did not have breakfast, but the room was clean with a great view of the ocean and literally two minutes walking to get to the beach!

The bathroom could use better-quality bath accessories. The office closing early is tough. They could stay till 7 or 8 instead of leave at 6. Its good to know if you are staying here there is a steep hill before you park.

I liked it a lot. The closeness to the beach is great. I love the balcony and the big rooms. . And I like to touch base with someone when I arrive. I rushed there after work so I could. The woman was amazing and provided great service. I want to stay here again.

Great location. No breakfast. Could hear the waves and had a partial view. Can't wait to come back soon.

The room we had was right for the price. It was quiet, clean, not fancy, but was everything we expected.

the found the motel to meet all my expectations. i would stay here again next time in am in Encinitas

Really nothing. A small annoyance was the plastic window replacement heavily scratched hindering the limited ocean view. However, not really worth mentioning since everything else was perfect. But thought I say something for the next guest.

Staff was perfect warm & accommodating in every aspect. Extremely clean. We felt relaxed and nice surroundings. Outdoor lighting everywhere including parking felt safe & secure. Would sure intend to return soon. thank everyone. dfinley/lgrant.

The room was large and super clean. The motel was in a great located, one block from the beach and in short walking distance from lots of restaurants. We had an efficiency unit that was well stocked with cooking utensils if needed. We did not do any cooking. It was a great stay and we would definitely stay there again.

I actually like the sound of trains, so for me it was fun to hear them. If you think train sounds will bother you, bring ear plugs or pick a place to stay that is far away from the tracks (and the beach).

Excellent location, 2 blocks from beach. We had partly cloudy days, but whenever sunshine hit my balcony I could be on the beach 5 minutes later. I'm glad I booked the double deluxe room with balcony and sea view. The room was spacious, clean, and well furnished. We had 2 beds, two comfy chairs, 2 desk chairs, plus chairs on the balcony. The bathroom was modern with great shower and toilet. This is not a fancy place, but all the staff we met were very nice and accommodating, and it is clean and comfortable. Bonus: if you like ice cream, there's a great place a few steps away.

nothing to not llike

This location is the best, you can ear the oceans waves crashing from your room. You are a minute walk from the beach and also just a few minute walk from a handful of restaurants. Directly behind it is Cali Cream and it's probably the best ice cream in Encinitas.

This hotel was excellent for the price. I even had a tiny bit of an ocean view and the small hotel was on a quiet street with a few steps to the beach.
