We were visiting schools in California and moving around everyday. This place by far was my favorite. It was the only place that offered complimentary coffee and a variety of bakery items, yogurt and fruit. Very clean and comfortable beds. For us, that were always on the go to our scheduled appointments it was definitely a plus. Front desk staff was super friendly too. I would definitely stay here again!

Wonderful place!

Beautiful building and grounds, very clean. Breakfast was basic but perfect enough to start the day. Our room was comfortable. Location was perfect, short walk to the beach and pier. Rodolfo was an excellent host! Very friendly, big smile, genuinely seemed interested in the guests passing through the lobby. I highly recommend La Playa Inn!
