Very nicely appointed room; Classy, unique decor, great shower, comfy bed, view of the ocean (Room 202). Friendly and professional staff. Prompt and thorough housekeeping service. Very comfortable. Well situated to local beach communities.

Unfortunately, back alley has frequent homeless loitering, including an angry, drug-addled man who was talking loudly and aggressively to the wind. This was intimidating because you have to walk past this homeless hangout TO GET TO YOUR CAR IN THE UNDER PROPERTY PRIVATE LOT! I would not let my wife or child go to the car alone because of this. The manager was sympathetic and frustrated, as local law enforcement doesn't respond appropriately to remedy this issue. Occasionally loud bar next door also wasn't a plus.

The room was lovely. The bed was super comfortable… Enough to call the manager to see what brand it is. Everything was clean and felt like new. The bathroom was spacious and well appointed. The rooftop was an amazing touch and nicely decorated with plenty of tables and hanging basket chairs. We brought in drinks then sat and enjoyed the sunset over an expansive view of the Ocean. we loved that it was a quick and easy walk to the beach, and the location is sweet and low-key. The nicest surprise was the delicious fresh ginger and fresh carrot juice served at breakfast, and yummy muffins… The coffee was really good too.

Our corner king suite that we booked 2 hours prior/last room available. Location. The nice quality robes, I always appreciate. Slippers. The older man in front gave the place character ❤️ He grew on me. I liked the coffee shop in front and 1/2 mile distance from the seafood grill restaurant. I would love to go back to that same king suite but not for the price we paid.

The place was like an apartment complex that became a hotel. No usb wall chargers. We travel frequently and have gotten used to only needing cable chargers like our own home. The office hallways lemon water container was near the ice machine but ice wasnt replenished. It was warm. Little touches like that make a difference. The place can run on its own without doing much because of its location and its reflected on whats put out by the company. For $600/night hotel should have had ice cold lemon water not warm on a 100 degree day, also add even 4 qtips, toothpaste, and toothbrush for use. They might also benefit with a popup bar on the rooftop. Sry management im being objective on how you can make it better

Location was perfection! Beach within spitting distance - Sunrise and Sunset off the chain! Friendly staff, high quality coffee in the lobby. So fun to borrow albums and play them on the turntable in my room. Can’t wait to come back to this newly and expertly renovated lodge in Cardiff - one block walk to the finest specialty grocery store ever! Filtered water refill station so need for wasteful one time use plastic bottles.

Coffee not available until 6am and notion in my room.

Room decor has been beautifully updated recently in a fun boho style. The rooftop is extra large with great seating. It's a perfect place to catch the sunset and have the muffins and juice they provide in the morning. They also welcome you with complementary prosecco or bottle water upon arrival.

You can hear people walking on the floor above you. But, it was not terrible. No electric charging is available. But again, it's not a big deal.

The rooftop was stunning!! I made myself a coffee from the lobby and enjoyed the sunset. Staff was so kind and your stay comes with fresh pressed juices and muffins for breakfast!! So nice. Would definitely stay here again when we come visit SD.

I do think room 107 was a little darker once the sunset and could use a lamp or light near the large wall mirror

The location is perfect, there are record players in each room and a library of records to borrow in the lobby which was such a nice touch, the staff truly made us feel like VIP’s, and the bed was the most comfortable bed I’ve ever slept in!! It was walking distance to many nice restaurants and bars, and was truly the perfect place to spend my partners birthday! 10/10 :)

Nothing

The staff were great, very welcoming and helpful. Location just behind the beach was super and easy to get into downtown Encinitas by car. Rooftop view was lovely and room was clean, comfy bed and spacious

Quite thin walls so if you’re a light sleeper that could be tricky once the surrounding rooms and staff make noises

Beautiful little hotel in a superb location. The room was big and very comfortable. The shower was great. They were able to accommodate a bit of an earthly check in and later check out. I recommend it. Will definitely stay there again

The only thing that we found not to be 100% was the cleanliness of the room. They may need to pay more attention to detail

Roof top is an added treat Location to the sea and beach walking trail Safe gated parking Room size and design Breakfast

It was pretty expensive but so are most of the local inns Had to pay additional to park onsite even though the room was costly
