Hotel Huntington Beach
Room was simple and clean, the staff was warm and friendly, and the location was perfect. Highly recommend staying here if you’re coming in to town for a book signing at the Barnes and Noble.

Place is great. Good restaurant and outdoor activities for young families. Also, it was very quiet in the area which is nice. Calm, relaxing and a good time.
