The area was well lit, clean and easy to get to our room. The room was very spacious, clean and accommodating. The bed was not the most comfortable, but we slept well. The only complaint was numerous outlets and usb outlets did not work. The coffee and shampoos/soaps were nice, which is an important side note for me. We felt safe in the area too. Breakfast was “grab & go” with granola bars, apples, oranges, and little muffins. The coffee was good and they had tea. We would return to this hotel again.

Cons: no elevators Pros: it was an average hotel.. not fancy .. but perfect if you can get it at a good rate and traveling through.. overall clean.. close to the beach.. the breakfast was as described- grab n go.. You check in with a kiosk, never spoke to 1 lerson who worked there, at 1 point a worker saw me as i was coming in to ask for something and they immediately went around the corner.. it was weird, but the kiosk person was helpful and quick..

I was caught off guard. A monitor with a remote person was our check in. It went fine but what the hell is this. If a woman hadnt been inside I would have never even noticed that I was supposed to check in with a zoom meeting. Not a fan of no human presence. Not sure if I will come back here again. We love this hotel and its location to the beach but still questioning this check in system.

The room was very spacious and clean, staff was friendly and helpful, very welcoming! The only thing that could have made the stay better would be a better breakfast selection, at the very least some more fruit options and add some yogurt, dry cereals and milk and juice.

Okay for one night.

The stay at Anchor Bay was ok. I did not like the virtual check in lacked human interaction and suggested places to visit around town. The power went off every hour all night so all the alarms and appliances had to reset making a lot of noises. With the power issues and not so comfortable mattress we actually just got up and left early. The plus side is that it is clean and very close to the beach. We did enjoy keeping the window open and listening to the sea lions behind the motel.

There is no one on site. All communication was via a zoom setup in the “lobby.” The breakfast was worse than minimal. The beds were uncomfortable.

Very comfy bed. Quiet property. Just across from the beach. Not really walkable to downtown but only minutes by car. Easy check-in. Laundry facilities on site. Be sure to visit Sea Quest Brewery and their sister business, Sea Front Bakery. Best food of our trip. Favorites activities: Forest Moon Festival, an annual local tribute to Return of the Jedi movie which was filmed in the area. Also Light house is definitely worth a visit but check out their schedule on Facebook cause access depends on the tides. Prairie Creek and Jedediah Smith Redwoods are world class parks.

First time checking in with a kiosk. A little strange. Didn’t ask if I wanted upstairs or down, just gave me a room. Have traveled with someone who couldn’t do stairs before if that had been the case, would have been a problem. Advertise have EV hookups. They do, but cost 20 dollars to use. Have a plug in hybrid, only has a small battery. Might have used 2 dollars in electricity. Room exceptionally clean, bed very hard. Overall a good stay, great for the price point.
