This Is truly one of the worst stays I've had. Their rating is too high on this site. Front desk is nice and it looks like the cleaning people are doing their jobs to the best of their ability. Don't let the photos fool you the location is a dump and the water that comes out of their sinks smells like literal sewage. The shower curtains have stains and bites in them. The comforters are bleached from who knows what stains. The balcony of the room we were in (second floor) wouldn't lock at all which is totally unsafe with a family for young kids. Property states that it's non smoking but saw people openly smoking pot next to the rooms as we were parking twice. Also our room smelled like pot so I think people were smoking inside. To top it off, in the morning as we were leaving to seaworld we got a noise complaint from downstairs . So ghetto. It was 8:30am . Of course you're going to hear us leaving our room as we are gathering our belongings. It's not our problem if you are asleep at that time and we are literally just walking around . Didn't like that at all. They're the ones who placed us above people when their property has thin walls . I would never stay here again. Didn't even check out the beach cause there was a homeless encampment outside our room.

Excellent dog friendly hotel. Patio needs a little TLC. There was lots of peeling paint but the interior of the room, although aged it was very clean. Staff was five stars, all the way, amazingly friendly, and helpful with local information.

Poor stay

“Our stay at Ocean Villa in Ocean Beach was disappointing — the room was outdated and in disrepair, amenities like the hair dryer didn’t work, and the property clearly needs remodeling; to add to that, we were charged for parking plus sales tax, making the overall experience not worth the cost.”

The best thing about this hotel is its location. Everything else is pretty average. Most of the times I tried to get assistance at the front desk, it was either empty or inaccesible from inside the building. I also tried doing laundry but they didn’t have any detergent. Overall the room was okay, just a little old and dark. Towels also didn’t seem super clean.

Hotel is very good, old and little outdated, a little renovation and beautification would do wonders. Towels on room were very low quantities and very poor quality. Some lamps were missing bulbs. The did accommodate a late check out, from.11 am till noon but weh I asked front desk for extra 10 minutes after noon the reception said they couldnt and i asked if there was a fee i could pay for extra time and was informed $150. I understand hotel policies butvit would be nice if they had an option to charge a fee $20 for an extra hour. Staff was very friendly and helpfull. The bedroom was very dirt. I dont think they clean the flooors. But overall is amazing and will go back soon. And i think you pay for the location more then the amenities.

I really like that you can park your car at Ocean Villa Inn and walk through the gate to Dog Beach. You have to use your room key to get back into the parking lot. They have a food option in the parking lot, but a coffee and breakfast burrito was $30 for one person. The location and views are fantastic, the facility could use some TLC.
