Location.
A little street noise, but the central location made it worth it.
9.0
Fantastic location. Walking distance to everything. The beach, obviously, and all the best restaurants on the peninsula.
Depending upon which room one is in and whether or not it faces the street, I can be quite noisy until after the bars close. Comes with the location, but be forewarned.

Gorgeous and historic! The room was very comfortable and the rooftop deck was phenomenal. Views from the deck were spectacular

beautiful historic building on the beach. the rooms were unique and upheld their time and space from early last century. just lovely! fantastic vibrant restaurant downstairs. choose the swordfish the locals recommended, I’m glad I did. incredible. the live music was great and locals were fun and friendly too. it is across from the beach for a great morning walk.
area busy after hours, I had an early work meeting I couldn’t settle for a bit due to crowd outside at the late night donut place. windows thin.

9.0
location cannot be beat! it’s very safe and everything is walkable! on top of that, the staff is unbeatable!
it is a little dated, though that is the aesthetic so not a deal breaker.
10.0
The location was awesome. The rooms were dated for the time period of 1800
I liked everything.
8.0
The breakfast was made up of wrapped bagels, muffins, yogurt, fruit, coffee, orange juice and cereal. Not what you would expect when advertising a bed and breakfast. However, the fruit was fresh. The staff was exceptional!!!!
It was great being so close to the ocean and boardwalk, but the noise went until 3:00 am! The hotel was kind enough to let us switch rooms which was better but still noisy.

Fabulous location. Walk to the pier and restaurants. Staff was exceptional. Bar and restaurant were amazing. You don't even need your car once you get there. We even walked to Balboa Island. The breakfast was a nice touch and the views were amazing.

Pictures didn't correspond to reality of the place.
half of the windows would not open.
Location in front of a busy and noisy public parking lot area.

From the very beginning, this was an excellent stay. when we got there someone had parked in the loading zone - the receptionist was so apologetic and got us a spot in the restaurant valet area - she was so friendly and helpful. The room was very large (we had the king with a patio). It also had a day bed with a trundle under it). The AC worked great when we needed it. I had heard about the noise from other reviews BUT we brought a small white noise machine and it worked beautifully. The location is central - other reviews made is seem like LOTS of noise but even when I was out on the patio it was not deafening or even that loud. The parking was such a bonus. Parking is insane around the hotel and the lot was attended and very close to the hotel. Breakfast was simple but the quality of the bagels and muffins was good. The bed was very comfortable, the best on our 2-week trip! The location was so close to the beach, and the nightly sunsets from the beach were amazing. we had a great time here and I highly recommend it.
perhaps a protein at breakfast, but that is a very minor quibble.

Availability and eating on the roof.
More goodies. No hot water for the oatmeal.
7.0
excellent location, can’t get better location. very cool room. Staff was awesome.
excellent breakfast other than no real coffee cream just international delight. (I have only ever seen that in cheap hotels)
I’m sure it is just because it’s an old building but the bathroom smelled like sewage.
paper thin walls and none of us got a good sleep especially being woken up to breakfast being prepared and dishes literally all crashing down at 7am which I believe must have been a mistake. (I later read not to stay in room 4 for this very reason)
not the quality I am use to spending $450 USD that’s for sure.
