Stayed here before and would stay here again. Rooms have been renovated so big plus there and you get discounts on rentals at Pacific Beach Surf Shop which is a bonus. Great location and lots to see and do right out front of the property and on the boardwalk

I stayed here for two nights while attending a friend’s retirement celebration, and the location couldn’t have been better—right on the beach with a pleasant (though partial) ocean view. One of the highlights was falling asleep to the sound of the waves crashing on the shore. The hotel is within easy walking distance of plenty of restaurants and bars, which made everything super convenient. The on-site restaurant is excellent, and I’d also highly recommend trying Woody’s Cafe right next door. This wasn’t my first stay here, and it definitely won’t be my last. I’ll be coming back on my next trip to San Diego.

Location! Can’t be beat! The hotel is steps away from the sand and several places to eat and grab a coffee. The staff was friendly and accommodating when we asked for more towels. There was a portable AC unit in the room which was much appreciated at night. It was loud but perfect for white noise for sleeping. The only con was paying almost $40 a night for parking. There is some free street parking close by but finding an empty spot is quite a feat, but I will definitely stay here again.

Check in was awsome. Elijah and Abdi were great they helped with getting the parking pass and gave us a map of where to eat. The beach was literally 10 steps away. The view was amazing!!!! Anna did our check out and she was also great she gave us some tips for our next stay!!! Our room was remodeled, it was clean and the bed was comfy. The only thing missing was a box of kleenex. I received a text asking if we needed anything so I asked for towels and they were there when came back from site seeing. The Sufer Beach is the perfect location to see all things San Diego I will definitely stay again.✌️
