Across the street is a 5 star hotel for 30$ more a night. The finishing touches were left out. No ice bucket. Wood on the door was not painted. Hardware in the tub was jankey and not connected to a stud. There are no drink glasses, only coffee cups if im paying 300 a night this is unsat!

You have to pay for parking which I have never experienced. Also there were holes in the walls in my room. There were two tvs one in each room but only one remote had batteries and the tv in the second bedroom didn’t even work.. the room worked for the night and the price I got it for was decent but I wouldn’t stay here again

2/10. Not the best experience for family.
There's bo lobby or check-in area. They texted a code that didn't work, and it took SEVERAL calls and texts (over 20mins) to get ahold of someone. Was missing a lot of essential. To name a few - no ice, no hair conditioner, no ac units, etc. There was no screen in one of the windows to the bathroom and an alley way that seemed fairly unsafe. The front door didnt latch fully. No cleaning up during the stay so the amount of sand was insane. Lastly, the water was hot and we couldnt get it to just be cold.

I appreciate that it was a contactless check in process and the location to the beach was right across the street. There are also plenty of dining options available and convenience stores around for last minute items. The local bus service also stops in font of the location in case you want to see a little more of the city.

Better then sleeping at the Walmart parking lot…
Building needs regular maintenance on the second story balcony, walkway. I highly recommend that they tackle the railings on the staircase and fix the corrosion on them. Also, can they be more upfront about the additional credit card charges???

Quick beach trip
While the room was updated and clean there was two bath towels but no wash cloth or hand towel. There was a Kleenex holder on the table but no Kleenex in it. Took a while to sign in to Wi-Fi, then it didn’t work. I had to take the coffee maker in to bathroom to plug in because the cord was to short to reach the plug where it was. Or I could have put it on the floor to use. Location is great, the shower was new and clean, good choice of bed pillows. The room is very small, but it was just me so not a problem.

It was just right for the price looking toward a park at the beach. Check in was difficult, as no one was there with no office. Bed comfortable, remodeled, nice view and nice little patio outside our door. Walking distance to everything on Imperial beach proper.
