Quaint little hotel
We stayed in San Clemente for one night. The hotel itself is an older property, but the rooms were nicely updated. It was quiet and comfortable. The customer service was very good. We were recommended a place for dinner that was excellent. The only downside for some might be the bathroom door. It slides at the top and there is a bit of a gap when closed. Not a big deal if you are comfortable with who you are traveling with, but it's something to be aware of.
