We were staying one night in Pacifica for a soccer tournament. This was the only room I could find available in the area. We walked in and the room smelled so bad, however the windows were already open. The bathroom was not clean and we were a afraid to stand barefoot in the tub. The beds were uncomfortbale and the... more

Upon entering our room we detected the strong aroma of vomit and Lysol. I asked for another room to which "Carlos" replied in 3 short words "there aren't any". We opened the windows to air out the acrid odors. The towels were actually unwashed, shredded on the sides and soiled from previous guests as evidenced by the unwashed appearance, and... more

Stayed here for a few nights while doing the San Francisco thing. Shared with a friend, and the price was excellent. I found the place clean, in a good location for our needs and the linen all of good quality and condition. However it needed a bit of maintenance work done - nothing dramatic but all sorts of little things... more

I was a little unsure about this hotel after reading the reviews. The room was better than I expected from seeing the pictures. But I believe the remote needed new batteries and the shower handle fell off. I think we recieved an up graded room because they were not fully booked. We ended up with a view of the ocean... more

We stayed there for one night. I do not have a computer, but we do have pictures of the filthy conditions of this room. Having to plug my husband's CPAK in that night for his Sleep Apnea, we had to move the bed slightly from the wall. There was tons of hair, food, trash, hair clips, crumbs, wrappers, etc. behind... more

You get what you pay for. The hotel was just below average in terms of cleanliness. I got a room facing the freeway so it was noisy, and the bed was not very comfortable. The maids did not do a good job of checking the room inventory. There was not TV remote, but the manager did manage to find one... more

Stayed one night. A bit difficult to see from the highway but still very close to Highway 1 and the ocean. Management lives on site and the rooms where very clean. Only complaint was that the elevator needed servicing and the permit was over two years past expiration. Good stay overall. Use the stairs and get some exercise. Great for... more
