Friendly and clean, this retro studio is a short walk from the beach, tide pools, art museum, the excellent Dick's Liquors, and The (amazing) Taco Stand. Check-in was a breeze and Ed quickly responded to my texts. The cookware was limited and the shower fixtures are showing wear, but this is a great value in a location where you could easily spend 2, 3, or 5 times as much a night.
