We've stayed here before and love it! Great breakfast and very large hot tub for relaxing. It's only a block from the beach and our room had a oceanfront view of Morro Rock. I would recommend asking for a third floor room though. We were on the second floor and there was noise and creaking floorboards in the room above us. But a very pleasant stay and we will definitely return!

The Spa exceeded my expectations in size and was well-ventilated, providing a nice environment for relaxation. While the breakfast options were satisfactory, the breakfast area was quite small. Unfortunately, the coffee was terrible, being overly watered down and quite unpleasant. The room wasn't cleaned thoroughly, with some spots overlooked. The closet door had splatter stains, and there was popcorn on top of the wall between the restroom and the bed; additionally, it was very dusty. They also failed to check the shower supplies, as the body wash container was completely empty. More attention to detail is needed for the rooms.
