Brisa Pacific Hotel Encinitas

Brisa Pacific Hotel Encinitas

10/10 Excellent
"Stayed here from Mon to Fri and paid $742. It was worth it. It’s per diem money anyway. Stonesteps beach is a 5 minute walk and it’s really nice. Hearing the train early in the morning sucked, avoid room 209 because people walk out of the hotel and slam the door late at night. Room 209’s restroom leaks a lot when you shower. Had to use a couple of towels to soak up the water from the floor. Other than that this hotel is really nice in a nice area. Staff is friendly, housekeeping everyday, and the room is nice. Would definitely stay here again just a different room. "
