Overall good value. The pool and hot tub provided a wonderful view of the sunset over the Pacific. Good restaurants nearby. Took me a while to work out how to get the tv channels from Spanish to English. The Gideon bible was appreciated and inspiring.

This is an older seaside property that shows its age on the exterior but the rooms are excellent. 3 stars is a good rating. Comfortable 12" mattress, remodeled rooms and bathrooms and a very good price point. I drove up the coast and back and in staying a second night.

All I needed was a quiet night's sleep between two long driving days and it filled the bill. Good value for the cost. It's in the middle of a strip of motels without a lot of dining options nearby; you only have to drive 10 minutes to Cambria for a lot of good dining options, or gas for the car. No ocean view, but that's not what I came for. Recommended.
