We had out of town guests and needed a one night stay for them and we pleased that they had a one night option. Check in was easy and the desk person was lovely and accommodating. Our guest said they really enjoyed the room and that the bed was very comfortable. Will definitely book again.

The staff was lovely and having an ocean view was nice. It is by the highway so if you are a light sleeper, bring ear plugs as they don't have them. San Clemente is a cute little town and the beach/pier area is great.
