We absolutely loved staying at Tower 23 and will stay there again when we go back to SD! The staff was so friendly, helpful, courteous… the location is just perfect! Don’t judge a book by its cover because when you come in and park it seems small but the quality of this hotel on the beach is truly exceptional! Loved Kevin who checked us in and was so helpful:-)
I wanted more pillows lol…

It was awesome and I would definitely stay there again.
We loved the location and the fire pit on the deck!
I did not love the barn door between the bathroom and the rest of the room. It did not provide complete privacy.

They give us a free upgrade at check-in and our room was exceptional. Fantastic ocean views, two balconies, sparkling clean. Restaurant on site is excellent. Free bikes were a fun perk and a great way to explore the area! Worth the splurge!

Location and staff was friendly and helpful
The bed was not comfortable for us and the room felt warm even with turning down the ac. Had to keep the door cracked at night to let the cold nights cool off the room.

Perfect weekend getaway!
The location was amazing and I love that you could rent bikes or boogie boards at any time! the JRDN restaurant right below is fantastic and you are central to so many fun things to do. Room was clean. super cute mini bar (not too expensive). The staff was very friendly and everything about our stay was great.

The balcony was beautiful and was never packed. The staff was very accommodating and easy to reach.
Price was steeper than desired. There was a funky smell in the bathroom at times.
