The location was excellent and within walking distance of shops, dining and beach. Parking was excellent. Breakfast was typical. The facility, while clean and comfortable, was older and still had carpet. The staff was friendly and helpful. Overall, it was a nice place to stay.

La Serena: Serene, indeed!
Super clean, modern room. Maintenance needs to do better with attaching the towel bar to the wall. One side was loose, as if was a double rod screwed into the wall, not on studs or a mounting plate of any kind. Great artwork on the walks, nice beachy vibe with flooring. Super nice gal on the desk!

Dog friendly!
We had a great stay at this hotel! We were happy to see that they allow dogs, which was the main reason we chose to stay here. The proximity to the bay is also a bonus! We walked a few blocks to a local brewery, which was also very dog friendly. Overall a great time, and we’d stay here again.
