For the price, the breakfast should include hot food (eggs at least) and the wifi should be more reliable. Helpful staff and a nice beach within walking distance made the difference.

This may have been the best property for the money in the area but can't be sure of that, it needs some help in some areas. It is very close to Hearst castle so there is that. It was quiet which we liked, staff helpful. The room itself just needed some upgrades that would not cost a lot but which need to be done, We slept well and it did the job.

Nice hotel close to all

I booked a partial ocean view and ended up with a pretty good ocean view. Sleeping with the window open to listen to the ocean while the fireplace was on was amazing! The hotel is very close to Cambria and San Simeon which made it the perfect place to stay for our mini vacation. We would definitely stay there again!

The hotel was really pleasant however there were a large group of motorcyclists staying and we were booked into the room next to the car park. If we had been in a different room I would rate as excellent. Area surrounding hotel was beautiful and access to Hearst castle and the seal cove was easy. We wouldn’t recommend the next door Mexican restaurant as overpriced with mediocre quality.
