    I recently stayed for 2 nights at the Always Inn Bed and Breakfast. I could not have asked for a better location- less than a block from the main street with all the cute shops and restaurants, and just a few blocks from the beautiful beach. The room was comfortable and the breakfasts were incredible! The owner and inn keepers made me feel extremely welcome and made sure I had everything I needed. I highly recommend this B and B!

    We stayed for one night in the "Palms" room - which was very cozy and comfortable. We brought our dog with us and he enjoyed his stay there too. Alma is very cool and makes a killer breakfast and treats as well (look for the brownies!).

    Thanks so much to the wonderful staff at the Always Inn! I reserved a room for my mom's 60th birthday gift. She absolutely loved the experience. She could not stop talking about how much she enjoyed the keeper's hospitality and warmth. She baked a dish to suit my mom's diet and she even helped repot the orchids that my mom bought at the Farmer's Market. My mom said it was the best birthday gift she had ever received, so thanks again to Always Inn for helping make the experience unforgettable.

    We are very familiar with downtown San Clemente and its restaurants. While dining at Beachfire and Avilla's in the past we had noticed the Always Inn nearby. Wehn we were forced to cancel our planned vacation this summer, we decided to at least squeeze in a two night staycation. Trying the Always Inn was a good fit. We had a great time. The room was cozy and the breakfast was very nice out on the patio. The bed was rough for us to gett a good night sleep, but beds are a very personable thing. I am sure we will stay here again, or in one of their other properties in Idylwild.


    The Best Birthday Surprise for my wife

    A truly delightful surprise. I looked for something special to surprise my wife for her Birthday, and how fortunate I was to find the Alway's Inn. The Innkeeper and owner could not have been more kind and helpful. The Inn is appointed both tastefully and with an artistic eclectic flair, and is surrounded by patio gardens throughout the property. The patios create a peaceful feeling of seclusion, and yet the location is short walks to great tasting food, shopping, and the beautiful Pacific Ocean. Breakfast was simply one of the best we've enjoyed together, and we met the nicest people to share some time with while dining. I could go on, and on, but please give The Always Inn a try and you will not be disappointed. We'll be back!
