Best value for the area that offers a comfortable stay, simple breakfast, and good location. Front desk was hospitable and friendly. Beds were comfy and room clean. It’s a beach style property so very minimal but actually had a big spa that the kids were able to enjoy when it got too cold outside. We never used our car and could walk everywhere from the hotel. It was sunny during our stay so the room could get a bit stuffy in the morning/day but we left the patio open and they have a fan inside to help. A plus was having a convenience charger!

I even had an interaction with a staff member after check in and she was so friendly. The hotel is just a 2 blocks from downtown and definitely walking distance! We will be back! 10/10!

Incredible Location/Staff

View of Morro Rock and Bay from the room, beautiful view with morning coffee :-) Staff was so kind to allow check-in past their office hours. I had no signal on highway 1 and could not talk to them, but they made sure they prepared a note and lockbox specifically for me and provided me code over call, it was so quick, the ladies at the counter in the morning were super polite professional and helpful. I would recommend staying here and will do so again.

We've stayed here before and love it! Great breakfast and very large hot tub for relaxing. It's only a block from the beach and our room had a oceanfront view of Morro Rock. I would recommend asking for a third floor room though. We were on the second floor and there was noise and creaking floorboards in the room above us. But a very pleasant stay and we will definitely return!

The Spa exceeded my expectations in size and was well-ventilated, providing a nice environment for relaxation. While the breakfast options were satisfactory, the breakfast area was quite small. Unfortunately, the coffee was terrible, being overly watered down and quite unpleasant. The room wasn't cleaned thoroughly, with some spots overlooked. The closet door had splatter stains, and there was popcorn on top of the wall between the restroom and the bed; additionally, it was very dusty. They also failed to check the shower supplies, as the body wash container was completely empty. More attention to detail is needed for the rooms.
