The service was poor; the rooms smelled musty, and the breakfast area only had bread and cereal that looked stale.

The staff here are wonderful,
Check-in agent named Sunil is always so very nice to me, tries to give me my favorite room,
Check-out agent named Celia is a sweet person and her husband always helps me with my luggage because he knows i'm disabled.
As a traveling musician, this is the only place that I stay in the bay area.

Filthy stained curtains, light fixtures not working, beat up trashed furniture. Very rude staff and noisy neighbors. One of the worst places I’ve ever stayed at

Staff were very pleasant. Carpets really need to be cleaned. Rooms were ok but mattresses need replacing too. Breakfast is very limited. Hotels very convenient though, to shopping and beach.

I should have trusted prior reviews of this place as being a bit out-dated and run down, it certainly could use some paint and a little more TLC, however it is in a great location, beach is just across the street, and a nice shopping center with many cute stores/ wide variety of resturaunts and food choices across the other street. Overall, our goal was to just have a place to sleep in between the daily activities, and Coral Reef Inn met that need at a reasonable price.
I have stayed at the Coral Reef many times over the years. It is a classic 1930’s/1940’s motel so things are a bit old. But the price, value, and location are great for a traveler who enjoys a place with character and history. The website suggests they have a “business center,” but they do not have a room with a computer and printer you can access.
But the staff at front desk were very helpful and printed out my conference papers for me.
I had a great stay
