Very, very good choice for inexpensive lodging right in the heart of San Simeon. Walk to restaurants, groceries, bars, and the ocean & beach is right across the street. When I checked in I asked for a quiet room on an upper floor and they gave me exactly that. Excellent front desk service. Room was clean, comfortable, and VERY QUIET. Lots of free parking and they have a hot tub on site also. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Staff was very courteous. The patio was nice. I enjoyed the homemade flan. The refrigerator needed to be wiped down and high dusting on the fan. The deck infront of the door seemed unstable.

Very clean room. Room appeared to be updated. Great price only paid 116 for one night with two queen beds. Front desk had great customer service. Great location close to the beach and had two restaurants with in walking distance. Pet friendly for an additional 25 bucks a night you can bring a dog. The outside of the motel looks old but overall a great deal. Beds comfortably was average. Room was nicer then others near by that cost more.
