Parking and check in location is a little rough but over all a great place for the price.
Denise, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Great spot if you are looking for easy access to everything PB. The rooms are a bit dated, but that’s not unusual for PB. I’d recommend for longer stays - I was only there for a few days so didn’t take advantage of the kitchen.

Great location, multiple options for parking near the beach. Only issue was the sink in the bathroom took far too long to drain. Decent price for the location, would still stay again.

Keith, 2-night trip

4/10 Poor

woke up with bug bits. room smelt like urine. carpet was gross. the lock on the door was damaged and we had to jiggle it in order to lock. horrible experience , especially the elk to check in all the way to pb surf , it was annoying.

8/10 Good

Confusing check in, limited parking. Room was clean and modern, tv didn’t work but maintenance was on it. Location is priceless.
D, 1-night trip

Good value for the area, which is mostly much more expensive. Parking was a bit inconvenient, but having a guaranteed parking spot is great at the beach.

Lance, 2-night trip

4/10 Poor

The bed covered the windows in the bedroom.Bathroom did not have any place put cosmetics or razor.To check in you had to walk around the corner and up the street.What they did have was a great location.
Michael, 3-night trip

8/10 Good

The property is located in an ideal location; close to everything but not in the middle of the noise. The room/suite was great, the bathroom is a bit small around the sink. The check I. Was done at a different hotel, the directions could be better explained. Also, it would be helpful to have the other hotel’s phone number in the room for easy access. Will definitely stay there again.
Antonio, 2-night trip

Quieter PB location

Nicely updated and comfortable rooms. Great location, very walkable. Parking was a pain and not close, but still available.
