This is a well managed motel that should be an example to some of the places I have stayed in the US. The room was well cleaned and had no nasty odors .There are several small restaurants nearby but as I was traveling alone I prefer fast food or takeaways and the best option for me was a 15 minute...

Rooms were clean and beds comfortable. Within walking distance of a beautiful beach. Front desk staff were very helpful. Small breakfast area but you can bring food back to your room, bagels,...

Realizing folks tend to be motivated to share reviews when things go badly, wanted to make sure my positive experience is heard. I tend to be skeptical (cynical?) when it comes to budget stays, and while NOT 5-star (nor expected), I must say, in "looking" for things to nit-pick, wasn't able to find much! Perhaps it was my early check-in,... More

I'm all about context. When you stay in a budget motel at the beach if you get clean and functional, you have about all you should expect. Econo Lodge fills the bill perfectly. Check in was easy. Staff helpful. Room was clean and safe. No frills. The shower was a typical California eco drip. Had to ask for help to... More

It's not rocket science. Gavin calmly delivers good value, and so keeps this place pretty full. He is a hands on operator- and all guests benefit from competent management. We will return. More
