The outside of Inn had been painted and looked attractive. The check inn lounge and the room need to be upgraded. The bathroom needs upgraded. The sink was draining slow. I used plunger near by and black sewage bubbled up. The room was clean and bed comfotable.

Good Stay no hot water.
The Extra scarecrows during our late arrival was a bit of surprise. Overall, it was good place to stay. We did have trouble getting hot water. We ran the water for a solid 10 minutes and it was still cold, so we gave up. The sink was hot so used that. It is not on the ocean, but we could hear the ocean when we arrived. We only used the lodge for a place to sleep. So, it was perfect for our needs.

I booked a room at the motel, but accidently booked it for the following night. When the front desk pointed that out, i asked him to move the reservation to the present day. The motel was virtually empty. He refused to do so, seeming to delight in my mistake. He said i should have booked it directly through the motel as opposed to through Expedia. I hope people steer clear of this place. I ended up not going to Hearst Castle because of this incident.

Property is dated and needs to be renovated. The staff was nice and location was great. The bed was one of the most comfortable beds I have ever slept on which made the stay worth it.

Grim
I stayed here 9 years ago and it was a typical motel, nothing special, but ok. 9 years later it was grim; mould on the net curtains, paper peeling off the wall, a loose electrical socket, and generally run down. On a positive note, the bed was comfortable, the linen crisp and clean, and the staff were pleasant. This place is at the budget end of the accommodation available locally, and it’s obvious why as soon as you walk into your room. If I’m looking for somewhere just to sleep for the night I don’t need a list of facilities that I won’t use, and so am happy to choose a budget motel, but I do expect to be clean and presentable. The room I stayed in was not - Avoid.
