I was quite surprised by reading all the reviews on this hotel that were super great. I found it to not be as great as the reviewers mentioned. First, the ocean is across the street across the Pacific coast highway, which is a highway. Not easy to cross, and it is down the street away, not across the street from the hotel. The pier is 6 miles from the hotel. I had taken an Uber to the hotel with my granddaughter and found that it was not something we would be able to walk to as we had read in the reviews. There isn’t a lobby there’s a man that’s behind a glass window And was not very friendly. The room was clean very dated. There were two chairs to sit at that were part of the kitchen set the only place you could sit to watch television would be on the bed. There was plenty of room to put a couple chairs or a sofa of some kind in that room. Our room is number 220 right on the PCH. You could hear the traffic all night long. I will not stay at this hotel again and I hope this was helpful for anyone that is planning to stay there.

Me and my friends travel on a budget and like this place bc of walkablilty to some bars and restaurants a coffee shop and a beach. Our room had nice queen beds with very nice quilts and a big window you can actually open and get the ocean breeze. The bathroom is nice but they have overheard showerheads which is inconvenient. Also the floor was really dirty and gave us Kmart feet. Cleanliness was otherwise good.

Despite the parking being limited, it’s super cute and pretty quiet inside the room for being right next to Pacific 1. I slept like a baby. I’d definitely return.

Room was relatively clean- though there was some hair in the bathtub/shower. It smelled like cleaning chemicals a bit, so at least it was clear they did clean the room. The inn is right on the highway, so you really can’t walk anywhere-seems like it would be dangerous to try to walk to the beach/water. Parking was great-lots of available spots, didn’t have to worry about finding a place to park. THERE IS NO ELEVETOR. I didn’t mind much, but if you have trouble walking, or climbing stairs, don’t stay here. No working vending machines on site, they are all broken. It felt a little sketchy, but it was fine for the short stay I had here. Overall not terrible. Probably wouldn’t stay here again, but I’ve definitely stayed at worse hotels over the years. 2* is about right.
