Hotel is in the hub of ocean beach scene but very aggressive people all around. Somewhat quiet the first few nights, but we were kept up until midnight with sub par music blasting. Wouod not recommend for grown adults, let alone children.

Beachy hotel

The Ocean Beach Hotel was all about location. Its location across from the beach is why you stay there. My room was on the interior of the courtyard, so the window faced the courtyard, which meant that the shade was always closed. The room was a bit cozy, but I didn't spend much time there. I'd try to get a room with an outward facing window next time.

Clean enough and great staff. Really— good people run this place. Free parking. Convenient and walkable. BUT this is an extremely LOUD area. Also, the bathroom light is connected to a fan that is very loud. Excessively barking dogs in at least one room on both occasions where we stayed here. Yelling guests. Not a peaceful place to sleep. It’s a good place to pass out if you’ve been out late and don’t want to drive.

Views were great, location is very good. Unfortunately the bathroom was very cramped. I had to lean forward on the sink to sit on the toilet and I couldn’t stand completely in front of the toilet either. Rooms were clean, but
