What a gem of a spot in Cardiff-by-the-Sea! We loved the suite with the ocean views. The rooftop is a great hangout and work space. Bonus is the walkability to the beach, nearby Seaside Market, and the Coastal Rail Trail. We will be back!

On arrival the desk host personally walked me to the room, then showed all of the amenities, then walked us to the parking structure to show how to enter to the parking structure. It was a very pleasant experience, thank you

This is a beautiful property. Our favorite part was eating breakfast and watching the sunset on the rooftop. There are so many good restaurants nearby and beautiful beaches along the cliffs. We loved the many places to walk (Torrey Pines, Annie’s Canyon and coastal walk between San Elijo and Swami’s beach. It was very relaxing with so many things close by.

The property is lovely and quaint. I love the spacious room with the four-poster bed. The bed was very comfy and the bathroom very clean. The staff were very nice and helpful. The hotel is centrally located close to the beach and restaurants. Everything was walkable. I would highly recommend.

Beautiful room and really cute property. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The roof top deck is really cute, only complaint is that the roof top closes before sunset. Other than that, our stay was great!
