Like others have said, if your looking for high end luxury with all the amenities then look somewhere else. If you want a place that really caters to dogs and their owners this is the place. Its right at the dog beach and has a dog wash on site that they keep stocked with soap and towels for washing your... More

If your looking for satin sheets & room service it's not the hotel for you ... But if you love your dogs & let them sleep in your bed at home then you will love this place for the sheer fact of its location to dog beach and the peace of mind of having your dogs with you and not... More

First off, it's not a 5 star... it's a 2 star motel that for the money and location is simply unbeatable. I walked in having just checked out early of another OB hotel and spoke with Lydia at the front desk. She was simply marvelous and I ended up booking two future trips with her. She was very personable, helpful... More

this place was way overpriced and too dirty, there are other places that are nicer and accept pets, the bed was very uncomfortable and felt like i was sleeping on a worn out box spring without a matress, the heater is a combined wall air conditioner unit so you cannot sleep if it is on, people were fighting and cussing...

My partner and I recently stayed at a location in Ocean Beach for five nights.I get the same location, upstairs facing the ocean everytime. The hotel location is great. The staff are friendly and the heated pool is a plus. I have stayed at the Ocean Villa Inn three times before and always found it adequate in terms of the... More

My friend and I stayed in one of the dog-friendly, family sized rooms. (I asked for an upgrade when I checked in and there was a larger room available.) There was plenty of room for my large dog and the bed I brought, etc. My Lab loved it. The motel is close to the dog beach (half a block of... More

We stayed here for one night, having originally booked in for 5 nights. The location is its best feature being in Ocean Beach, right next to the Dog Beach. It is designed for dogs and maybe their owners. Note that we have dogs but they had to stafy in the UK. The only reason we stayed here was that it... More

We stayed at the Ocean Villa Inn in Ocean Beach, San Diego. After a week in a little casita in another part of OB, we hated to leave, so booked 3 nights at the Ocean Villa Inn, where we have stayed before. The best thing about it is the location near "Dog Beach" in Ocean Beach. You can hear the... More

We all travel with different expectations of our lodgings but if you loves your furry friends enough to seek a dog-friendly haven then you have your pick with this hotel. Dog beach is your back yard, dog friendly restaurants are close, and a good pub is right down the way. No problems with the cleanliness factor, the aisles are wide... More
