I came here for a quiet vacay on my own. The room was quaint and clean, the staff were helpful and kind. I will most definitely be coming back again. It’s the perfect place to chill out and enjoy the coast. There is an awesome spa is just down the street and the room rate was the most affordable in the area. Don’t miss out on this place!

Adorable motel with super friendly staff

Very charming spot in an equally charming little town. Don't plan on sleeping in if you're on the first floor- housekeeping starts around 7 AM and it's impossible not to be woken up by it.

Very pleasant place to stay

This is a very nice hotel in the peaceful little town of Occidental. It is spacious, clean, with the usual amenities like microwave, fridge etc. Our room was newly renovated. It had a large table with two chairs overlooking the grounds, pool and the surrounding area of big trees, through a large window. The bed was very comfortable and the room was pleasant. The town is small but it has some shops and eateries all within walking distance. I would recommend this place.

Great find!

Very friendly and helpful staff. The walls are relatively thin so you can definitely hear what’s going on in the next room, but it wasn’t a problem for us. The pool area is quite lovely sunny clean and relaxing. You can’t beat the location either.

Occidental trip

Front desk clerk was wonderful, he was friendly and helpful. He recommended places to eat. Keep in mind most are closed during the week. We got coffee and breakfast at Bohemian Market, had lunch at Howard Station Cafe. We had a pizza and salad at Union Hotel. We wanted to try Negris and Hazel but both were too busy on a Sunday. Beds were soft and comfortable. The pool was too cold to use but it was a nice place to sit. If you’re adventurous I’d recommend the zipline course two miles away.

I couldn’t stop thinking I was being discriminated at the time of check in. I had already asked for an early check in, the man asked me to come back later since the room was being cleaned. Got back and two other couples walked in at the same time, the man said “2 rooms available” and gave it to them when I had been there before they did. He had the audacity to tell me “checking time is at 3 pm and smile at the other guest”. This was plain wrong. I don’t what to mention the race of the other guest, but I’m sure you’d have a pretty good idea .
