It is not a bad place. But it is so outdated. They certainly have to spend some money on making it more attractive. It is a lot of competition around an this place can compete if you do it right.

Parking was easy, location is good. I'm guessing it's a pet friendly layout. Staff was pleasant and easy check in. Construction present on the street towards the beach has been present for a month or two? Front desk said they usually work till about 7:00 p.m.? They were at it till 9:00 p.m. power tools and trucks with lights and backup signals, some Earth moving equipment. What was not anticipated was running dewatering pumps 24 hours a day and after the crew left after dinner hour they had a flood light trailer running a generator throughout the evening, exhaust fumes prevented opening the only available windows on the beach side, that wipes out pretty much taking showers and not going to bed in a steamy sauna of a room. Partial sleep and and 6:00 a.m. wake up to generators and trucks arriving, wasn't real upset about the coffee maker only putting out one pod of coffee. I took off in the car to go find coffee at the gas station and the wife and daughter tried to get a another hour of sleep to no avail. At least post that there is construction and that maybe you're offering a half off room rate, at least the six company vehicles for the construction crew staying at the location remained pretty hush as they had a corner of parking lot location to prepare their dinner trying to calling it a night. It's a great View and a small town so the highway gets real quiet after sunset, my guess is it's great when they don't have a highway project going on. Three options just blocks away!

Gualala Inn was a comfortable and affordable stay. Our room was clean, comfortable, fully equipped, and faced the ocean (you get great sunrise and sunset views). The front desk was friendly and even gave us some good recs for hiking trails. The hotel is also pet friendly which allowed us to bring our dog. Overall, it was a great trip.

The hotel was perfectly situated, close to ocean views & bluff walks, groceries, and food options. The room was big enough and clean-ish. I would stay here again with my family, but the place is quite dated with some of what you’d expect with old bathrooms. Beds were comfortable and clean. When we stayed, they said they were in the process of updating the TVs to allow streaming.

The staff is accommodating and friendly. There is nothing that could be done about the major construction project occurring in front of the hotel. The quality of the towels was good but the bedding needs an upgrade beginning with the mattresses. The hotel is conveniently located and within walking distance to a few restaurants and grocery stores.

No complaints. The center lamp was not plugged in, which I did by reaching under the bed to the outlet. Feel free to put me on the payroll for it. We did not need the picture fireplace near the window. Appreciate the table and chairs. It took a while to get the TV off. Going to the bathroom at night wasn't helped by the outside light flooding into the bathroom and extending into the bedroom area. Maybe a shroud across that little window with a pull cord to bring it down and avoid the night lighting.

Nice Inn across from an inlet and the ocean with *free* parking! Beds were comfortable, shower was good. The instructions for the TV were way out of date (for when it was Satellite dish instead of the current cable box) so we couldn’t use many features. No food onsite but great restaurants close by. The Azul Cove was great, though service was so-so. Food was excellent.
