8/10 Very good

I liked the smoking area where the pool used to be. The property had a tiny pool they turned into a fenced patio area with a fire pit they keep open late. There's also a dog run area for your puppy to potty etc. Great updates to the property!

5 star motel!

We had the best time on our overnight stay at ocean pacific motel! We were greeted like family and the room was so clean and smelled fresh when we walked in. This motel was much cleaner than some 4 and 5 star hotels that we had stayed in!! I will definitely come back and stay again. 5 stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great stay and location

Staff was super friendly and the check in process was quick and easy. The room was clean and comfortable. My only issue was the road noise as the Motel is close to a highway. Other than that, the stay was great. I would come again.

2/10 Poor

The front lobby staff was very friendly and welcoming. The room was clean and tidy, but the room upstairs from us was very noisy and we had a hard time sleeping. Also, the beds were very uncomfortable.

10/10 Exceptional

Cozy and quick

This motel is situated immediately off the freeway but is surprisingly quiet. There is a cute little outdoor seating area, grassy area for the pups and ample parking. There is no elevator on the premise so be prepared to carry your luggage up the 1 flight. We had a small window view of the ocean from our bathroom but otherwise our view was the parking lot. The room was clean and spacious and again, quiet. The walk to the main strip of town was short but drivable if you prefer. It took maybe 10 minutes max with traffic signals. The weather permitted our outdoor activities but if thats not the case, everything is a short drive away.
