"The Crystal Pier is perfect for vacationing families, groups of friends, and pretty much everyone else, too."
Fodor's
"Rustic little oases with a charm all their own, the cottages may lack some of the amenities of comparably priced hotels, but you're paying for character and proximity to the ocean."

"Reservations are essential for these 1927 Cape Cod-style cottages which sit directly on the pier. Many have kitchenettes, and patios with views of Pacific Beach."

"This 1926 inn was popular with Hollywood celebrities en route to holidays in Mexico in the 1920s and 30s. The original fixtures lend a delightful retro touch."
Rough Guide
"This renovated apartment complex is a hundred years old. The stately hotel suites feature kitchens and pleasant, large sitting areas, and continental breakfast and wi-fi are free."
Lonely Planet
Top Choice
"This 74-room gay-friendly place... used to be an apartment building, meaning mostly large rooms with kitchens, vast closets and early American decor."
