The check in was quick and easy, though I was disappointed in the 10$ a night parking fee. The beds were too soft for our liking but otherwise the rooms were comfortable and clean. I would book again for our next trip.

The views from our room was outstanding. Not just the ocean in the background, but the gardens between the rooms and the ocean bluffs. They also had great lawn furnishings around fire pits. The room was spotless and roomy, bed very comfortable. Staff was very friendly and helpful. There's a very nice Italian Deli nearby.

I only stayed one night and the power to the entire hotel went out that morning. I had to shower in the dark. No apology made or compensation give. I assume when I pay for a stay at a property that I will have power

I loved my stay with my pup. The staff put me in a dog friendly room that had a patio, was clean, and convenient. There are some parts of the property that need to be updated but generally it was a nice place with beautiful views. The staff were lovely and accommodating. If you have a pup you can take to dinner, there is a restaurant called Lido that is a 2 min walk and has a pup menu. I’m definitely coming back to this hotel.

The room was nice but no microwave. You have to go to the office to use the microwave. The mattress was not very comfortable and the restaurant would have been great but it has closed down. The floor in the bathroom area was slippery from whatever cleaning product they used.
