We have been vacationing at the property for several years, and a lot of things are looking pretty shabby now. The bathroom is very old and smelled like mildew. Also, the room furniture is old and broken down/non-supportive. We had to request a new refrigerator as it was falling apart as well. So not the best visit. We will be looking at other properties.

I went to shower and I could not turn on the water. The handle would not move in any way. So, left the hotel without a shower There was blond hair on the floor, coffee/drink splatters on the wall and "dirty" around the bathroom plug in. Very disappointed in the cleanliness. I complained at the front desk when checking out and was promised a call from the manager......which I never received.

Not inexpensive @ over $200 a night. They should disclose in the info that they do not provide daily housekeeping, I isn’t on the Expedia page and isn’t disclosed at check in. I complained about that and was told it’s written on their property map. Would be fine for a one night stay but at over $200 a night it was very disappointing. Bathrooms need major updating. The bed was nice and very large tv. WiFi was very poor. Plastic water glasses, paper coffee cups. Felt like you were still dealing with Covid.

Paid $$$ for ocean view room. There was a temporary sign that block part of our view. Asked staff to remove it and they did nothing. Disappointing that our view was not what we expected.

The location is gorgeous and accross the street from Moonstone beach. The room was a bit outdated but it adds to the charm of the location; it was very conformable and practical. I only interacted with staff upon arrival and she was very friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay again!

Great inn, well maintained, not on the cheap side ($200 per night off-season), but great location. Future guest should pay attention to room standard/grade. Highest price is for ocean view with balcony. Great sunsets!

Overall , the management was nice but we had a slight issue with the floors and walls not being cleaned in our room. The manager said he would take care of it first thing the next morning. My family and I left until the next afternoon and came back to the room still not cleaned. We had to leave again so that they could clean, and the cleaners still did not clean the floors. It's a cute place but probably won't stay there again.

The property was clean but the room wasn’t cozy (all hardwood floors). You would think that paying $450 for an oceanfront room would equal a nice bathroom with a door that closes but the bathroom pocket door was difficult to open and close. It kept getting stuck on the railing. It didn’t close. The bathroom also needs a remodel. Overall, property was nice as were the grounds so it was but disappointing. I don’t think we’ll stay again.

My wife and I stayed here for a couple of days and really enjoyed our stay. The hotel is right across the street from the beach and only about a five minute drive from downtown Cambria. Our suite was spacious, clean and well appointed. The blackout curtains were a little tired and need to be replaced and were also hard to open but other than that, the room was great. There was a desk in the room, but the chair that was placed in front of it was not appropriate in height, so the desk itself was a little high when you sat in the chair. We didn’t get a chance to use the pool, but it was nice and in the back portion of the property. If you like wine, they do have a tasting room right next to the lobby. Highly recommend staying here and would not hesitate a return visit.
