The bed was fine and the shower was hot. It’s not a solid 3-star but it’s pet friendly and convenient and nothing was wrong except for the random beach party music you could hear at odd hours. Bring ear plugs. Friendly staff!

Great little getaway spot just steps from beach

Its a cute little spot on the quiet end of Ocean Beach. I loved being close to the beach, just a little walk through a grassy area. A few blocks to walk from the main drag with all the food and shops, but still super close to everything. For the price, its the closest you will get to a popular beach. Food truck in the parking lot was great for breakfast and lunch. Super dog friendly. Would definitely recommend to anyone who isn't looking for a bougy resort feel - its definitely not that but I like that better anyways.

Very pet friendly. Hubby and i haved stay here with my kiddos but this time it was our anniversary so we decided to come alone. I think of how much they charge for the rooms they need a lil tlc.. extension cords throughout the whole room. Which i believe its a lil hazardous. There was half a roll of toilet paper had to ask for more we stayed for 2 night 3 days. Oh by the way u have to pay $15 a day for parking i think its ridiculous. I dont think i will be staying here again. I had given a 5 🌟 before i dont it was worth it this time.

It is pet friendly. The 1st room we got the 1st night was not worth the price at all. The restroom had cracked wall tiles, the shower was peeling off, the hot water worked for a few minutes then it was all cold water. The hand towels were old and had several mosquitos on them. We paid extra to get a "beach view" room and got a regular room. They wanted to charge $140 something extra to get a "beach view" room even though we had already paid an extra $150 to upgrade when we did the reservation online. We spoke to 2 different staff members the 1st day and they refused to change us rooms. Luckily the 2nd night there was a more understanding staff member that changed us to the right room after we had showered with cold water the 1st night and the wheather was chilly. The vents didn't work. The beds backboards were just leaning on the wall, not even attached to the bed. The beds were uncomfortable and squeaky. The 1st two staff members argued that they had put us in an ocean view room after I refused to pay another upgrade fee and telling them that I had reserved an ocean view room. Our view was a tall palm tree and trees outside the balcony. Also, you have to pay for parking separately. Overall our experience was very disappointing and dissatisfied. The only good thing is they have a mini friedge and microwave. There's a lot of dark areas at night around the beach area and homeless behind the property by the balconies throughout the day and night.

We always love staying here. It works for us, but it is a bit older. Prices are way too high in the summertime for the age and condition of hotel. Still my top choice as it is comfortable for us and convenient to my needs and pet friendly.

After a cancelled flight to where we weren't going to make it to California for the night, I called Ocean Villa Inn, and they said that it was up to hotels.com to decide whether to refund. I spoke with hotels.com and they were great and were willing to refund on their end, but they had to get approval from Ocean Villa Inn who then refused. I absolutely understand policies, but I am very frustrated that they passed the buck to hotels.com and so I was excited to find out we would get a refund, only to find out that Ocean Villa Inn didn't actually mean what they said, and they would refuse on their end. They have a phone number to text (they had texted from leading up to the stay and saying to text with any concerns) that I tried to reach out to before this review with no response. Even if there had been a simple "we're sorry" response, I would not be leaving the review.

This hotel is very rundown. The pictures are deceiving. It looks cute from the outside with the mid-century paint job and Airstream food truck, but that’s where the updates stop. The best part of this hotel is its location walking distance to the beach, including the dog beach. I did not stay with a pet, but I can see how this would be a good place to stay if you are bringing your dog with you. I had a room on the second floor with two queens. The beds are so old and uncomfortable. The pillows are old and lumpy and though the blankets on top looked clean based on the rest of the hotel room it’s hard to know if they get washed regularly. The bathroom was a nice size. However, the fixtures are very old. There were holes in the tile by the shower. The coating on the shower floor was peeling and it was also just a single stall shower with a shower curtain that did not look very clean the towels are old and have stains, and lack any kind of softness. I hate to give negative reviews to businesses, however, I feel like you should know what you’re getting into. If you plan to stay here I came for a festival and the location was good. However, there were other cheaper options nearby at chain hotels which probably would have been nicer. The hotel staff in the lobby were pleasant and welcoming, which was nice and the pool looked like it had been taken care of. Also know that they will charge you for parking but it looks like there is possible free street parking around the area.
