Lafayette Hotel & Club
"Always love staying here especially on work trips because it’s a great spot to come back to. Only downfall is no self parking and parking in the surrounding neighborhood is not great for trucks. Other than that, I’ll still be back for future stays."

California Suites Hotel
"Great place for the price point. Clean, easy to get to and close to the beach as long as you drive. The blankets are thin so I would bring my own, and the mattress is a little wonky, but incredibly clean and well maintained. The pool is super nice and I would visit again."
