Our room was located below the dishwashing station in the restaurant. Every time they turned on the disposal, we heard a large rumble. We could also hear pants being washed in the stainless steel sink. The noise level was so bad. They provided ear plugs to help guests sleep. They did not notify us of any special check-in procedure until the last minute. They treat the place like it is a short-term rental, not a hotel. We never received parking instructions and we were forced to park almost two blocks away on the street. They say the place is close to the San Clemente Pier, I guess close is relative. By no means. Is it a short walk. Our beach view patio was located on the street, and you look down the street to see the beach. We could not leave that door open at night due to security issues. It was the only window in the room.
