"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."

"Its Pacific Beach location is ideal for young travelers flip-flopping down to the sand or going out for wild nights at nearby PB Shore Club or neighboring Firehouse American Eatery."

"Restaurants are within walking distance of this contemporary inn, and the boardwalk action is just outside the door."

"Reasonable rates, pack some value for travelers. Ocean Park Inn isn't the neighborhood's only beachfront hotel, but it does beat out its competitors in housekeeping."
