Holiday stay

Very gracious helpful staff. Only complaint was our room was at 60 degrees and not warm when we arrived 8:30 pm I feel once the room is charged they should check temp of room to prepare. Also ice we didn’t know where or if there was a ice machine or how to get ice Manager was accommodating when asking for help I would definitely stay again! Great view

I had an issue the first night with the thermostat set at 78 degrees, so we had to open the windows. Staff fixed the issue so the second and third nights We’re comfortable to sleep in.

The walls are paper thin. You could practically hear your neighbor breathing. I could hear his phone vibrate, every single word he said whether quiet or loud, blowing his nose... EVERYTHING. We could barely sleep. Otherwise, it was neat and clean and newly updated. The location is ok... you can walk across Highway 1 to the water and dining which is great but you also get a lot of highway noise.

The rooms are big and the bed is comfortable. I am a light sleeper, though, and the walls are thin and the windows are not insulated well. I woke up to the guy next door snoring every night and was kept awake by him talking on the phone till midnight. The location near the water is great, too, but the sound of cars woke me up in the morning. I did not, however, mind listening to the sound of sea lions at night. :) and yes, i used ear plugs as i have to carry them wherever i go.

Very clean, and clearly renovated. The paint, floors, and everything was new. Private parking. Very convenient to scenic spots and restaurants. Don’t expect breakfast but wonderful eats right next door. Yes all the rooms have a water view but there is a 4 way intersection and piers between the hotel and the water.
