The place was as described and it was excellent. I will definitely look to stay here again if I come back to San Diego. a) Location is a few steps from the beach. Sunsets are amazing and something that locals and tourists share every day. Food is amazing. There is a nice little coffee shop a few blocks away. There is a brick and mortar surf shop a couple of blocks away. (there is a tent in the sand on the left but the brick and mortar on the right has Everything you could ask for including a hot shower for when you are done). (you can also rent a wet suit and a surfboard for all day if you don't want the lessons but if you aren't a surfer and want a safety set and a 90 minute lesson, definitely a value. You're minutes from the rest of San Diego but you are far enough away that you're not bothered by "the city" when you want time to decompress. Not sure what else I can say: I was very pleased w my stay there and you will be too.
