Dennis's place was very convenient . You can walk to the beach, the mansions, and Cliff Walk, all of which my family enjoyed. There were also a few restaurants in walking distance. In addition to providing us with some recommendation verbally, Dennis provided a nice book with details on places to go, including maps that were very helpful. We also enjoyed the coffee and snacks. The rooms worked well for my family of four. Dennis's place gets a thumbs-up from us!
