I arrived early in the afternoon to check in early but was denied. Asked if I could leave my bags there, but denied. Asked if I could complete the paperwork early, but was told that the room is guaranteed and pre-paid, so there is nothing to fill out. Asked if it was a 'no-smoking' room and was told 'Yes." So I went to my event in Del Mar (State Fair) and returned at 8:30. No one at desk, had to wait 15 minutes before some kid returned with MacDOnalds fast food. Still had to fill out some papers even though I was told everything was already taken care of. Went to room and no lights. Tv came on and clock radio was working, but no lights. AND, there were ashtrays all over the room. I returned to the fron t desk and said I was supposed to have a non-smoking room - it was supposed to be guaranteed. The kid gave me another room and key, so I went to check it out. When I walked in, the air conditioner was blowing full blast, but hot air. Checked the thermostat, tried adjusting it, but nothing but hot air. Noticed ants crawling along the counter in the vanity/bath area. I returned to the front desk and described the situation to the guy. He siad I must have done something wrong and went up to check (I followed). He couldn't get the A/C to cool, so he went back to the office and called the manager. He then told me they didn't have any more rooms so I couldn't stay there. This was supposed to be guaranteed by Travel website - guess I won't use them again!

There is not a kitchenette in every room. Our room was not as updated as my in-laws. There is not fresh fruit in the continental breakfast. Only danishs in packages and toast.
Good Value

Looks close to beach on map but access is a 15 min hike, Beacons is a better beach than Grandview. Eat at Le Papagayo about 6 blocks south on 101, awesome breakfast! Rooms were clean and large, service is ok, if you wake early and want coffee bring your own coffee maker, none in the room. I brought a french press and there's a microwave/fridge in room. Not fancy, but you can't beat the price and Leucadia is a great little town. Very short walk to market and restaurants
great

very good for the budget traveler. Location is great and the rooms are very clean and roomy. I was impressed with the professional staff.
