It is an ok place

The staff is good, but the place really needs an upgrade. The carpets are old and there is a smell when we walked into the room. They do not provide hypo allergenic sheets or pillows, so people with allergy need to be careful. Lastly, their breakfast is not good, however there is a Mexican restaurant next door. In summary for the price I really expected better!

Night Staff 5 Stars

First off when I first checked in the night, manager was absolutely awesome. Polite, professional, and very knowledgeable of any question I had. The room was clean and OK just a little dated. The continental breakfast was really disappointing. Not a lot of fresh fruit just a boiled egg was offered instead of I usually see scramble. Packaged oatmeal also was the only thing offered for that. And contrast to the night manager, the gentleman that was sitting at the desk during the day was more interested in watching his phone with his earbuds in then maintaining order when the children were running and screaming around during breakfast. They were running up and down the stairs, OK children are children and yes, the parents should’ve been the ones to stop that but as an employee of the hotel you would think that he would’ve said something?

Great place to stay if you are visiting Hearst Castle. 7 min drive. Nice option with the coast right behind. Room is a bit old and you can hear the neighbors talking. Otherwise, a great place to stay with a nice Mexican restaurant right next door.

I liked staying at the hotel, the decor was really nice. I enjoyed drinking coffee and listening to the birds chirp in the morning. I also enjoyed the complimentary breakfast. Most the staff was great, except for the morning person at the desk. She was not friendly at all, I would say good morning and she wouldn’t say a word. She did have really nice nails though. The beach is about 5 minutes away, and it’s very serine and quiet.

Lovely hotel

I was very pleased with the hotel. They did not have an ada room available, if they just put a couple grabs bars in the br I could have taken a shower. Not sure what the welcome gift was that you mentioned, don’t think we got any. Breakfast was nice, the lady in charge was very pleasant
