This property is about 35 minutes from Pinnacles National Park, our main reason for staying here. The hotel looks newly renovated and the room is clean, with a comfortable bed. We found a few dining options right in downtown Hollister; we really enjoyed Cosmos Bar and Grill! Also appreciate the free breakfast buffet at the hotel and the complimentary 24 hour coffee:tea station.

Disappointing Stay with Poor Service

This was one of the worst hotel experiences I’ve had in a long time, and I would never stay here again. We were in town for a wedding and requested to check in just one hour early, as the ceremony started at 4 p.m. and we wouldn’t return until after midnight. Despite explaining the situation, the front desk told us they couldn’t accommodate the early check-in. My husband and I ended up changing in the public restroom. To make matters worse, I sat in the lobby and watched several other guests check in early and be given rooms, which was incredibly frustrating. When we finally checked in after midnight, no one explained how the “eco-friendly” lights and TV worked. We thought they were broken and gave up trying to figure it out. We went straight to sleep and checked out first thing in the morning. Overall, the lack of communication, inconsistency in service, and poor guest experience made this a regrettable stay.

Very nice hotel. Room was clean and comfortable, staff was friendly, breakfast options were better than other comparable hotels. One of the closest hotels to Pinnacles National Park where we spent a day.
