We had a great experience staying at the Quality Inn. The customer service was fantastic. The room was clean. The pool area was clean and the hot tub was hot! Breakfast was hot and typical hotel breakfast. Waffles, eggs, toast, cereal. It was perfoect for visiting Hearst castle, the lighthouse and some beach time!

Worst hotel experience ever

This hotel might be the worst hotel I ever spent time in. From the moment I checked in it was horrible. There was no air conditioning and the front desk would not provide me with a fan. The hotel is run down dirty and full of bugs. The front desk manager is a complete jerk.

Wow! I’ve stayed at many hotels before and I can’t believe on what a wonderful experience we had staying at the Quality in near Hearst Castle. As soon as I walked in the gentleman at the front desk (ugh! I can’t believe I forgot his name) greated me so kindly. The check in was quick and easy. They have fresh baked cookies, coffee and tea till 11pm! The pool and spa were a tiny bit outdated but they were kept nice and clean. I would recommend! Love love love.
