Ocean Villa Inn Resort

The nicest dog friendly motel. Great, clean,grassed play area attached to the rooms. Residents became friends because the dogs played together. No fights. Clean rooms. Friendly staff. Close to beach and shops. Best place to stay in San Diego.

This hotel is just minutes from the beach and stores. A beautiful view with nice clean rooms and friendly, helpful staff. I get adjoining rooms so I get a kitchen and lots of room for the kids. Parking is tight but workable.

Yesterday, May 6, I called the hotel reservation line and reserved a room for my 83 yo mom and me for today and tomorrow(May 7th and 8). I spoke to a nice person named Lydia. Today, Mom cancelled the trip because she isn't feeling well....That happens at 83. I called the hotel at 5am to cancel--spoke to the night auditor/manager, a fellow named Jason who bruskly refused to cancel the room--"we have a 48 hour cancellation policy."

"That wasn't told to me when I reserved the room, nor is it included in any of the web material."

"I don't care, that's the policy. you will be charged for the room."

So, I would urge other travelers to beware this hotel and their so called policy--particularily if you are traveling with elderly or disabled who may have fragile health.
