Do not recommend unless you want a very basic motel. Rooms are right next to the road and a parking lot full of bikers and people hanging out all night long. Rooms are clean but last updated in the 80s.

The vent of the bathroom is so loud. You can’t turn off the vent itself as one switch is for both the lights and the vent.

Great location, Paid parking not ideal.
Amazing location, and young front desk worker was very kind and helpful. He offered to help open a bottle of wine that I had. Only drawback was some ants in the room and the fact they charge 15$ for parking and then say they will tow you if you do not move your car after check-out.

A little confused
Wonderful staff but odd arrangements in room.
Please resolve:
1) Coffee machine with no coffee and no cups
2) Bathroom with no cups
Why $200 deposit taken when nothing in room or refrigerator to cover?
Hope this helps.

Nice little spot on Balboa Island. Very walkable, It is in a busy but great location so if you're an extremely light sleeper this isn't the place for you. Would book again!

Our room was not what was pictured in our reservat
Our room was not what was pictured in our reservation. We had to pay $40 for an early check-in, and we barely slept that night from the loud noise around us. We were right next to a fire station with sirens, lots of street traffic, and lots of loud people. Would not stay there again.
