Just about everything during my stay here was wonderful. My only complaint is that the hotel lists “breakfast included”. They broke this promise and did not have breakfast for its customers.

Cute hotel, looks like they are doing some renovations. Front desk was super friendly with great dining options. Laundry facilities could have been cleaner as well as the patio had spider webs everywhere. Room was big and clean. Had a weird smell, but that went away after being in the room for a bit. Fresh coffee would have made this stay better. All and all the price was right and rooms were clean

Upon arrival, we were allowed an early check in which was nice. The room itself was dirty - hair on the tv stand, handprints on the walls and chairs, dirty floor like it hasn’t been mopped, dirty door like someone kicked mud on the bottom and dirt splatter on walls. We went back to the front desk and told them it was dirty and they had housekeeping come to clean again. They literally just picked up the hair wad, there was still dirt on the floor and behind the bathroom door. There was a dead fly in the lights in the bathroom. Was pretty disgusting. I wish I could attach pictures. Our room was right next to the stairs so all morning and night people were going up and I swear it shook the walls. It sounded like someone was in the room with you as it was so noisy. Definitely would not recommend anybody to go and will never go back again. I can’t believe the price I paid!

The deluxe room was large and comfortable. The partial ocean view is exactly that from the corner room, but on the other side of the street with some buildings in between. Quite far away but there. Better than average motel!

Office staff seemed unfriendly and denied a slightly early check-in without even checking to see if a room was ready. This is odd for the area since every other small hotel I've stayed at in San Simeon has incredibly friendly and appreciative staff. Room was nicer than most in the area. Paid extra for an upgraded room that was right next to a lounge area over the pool, that was terrible as there were guests out there partying until 12am that may as well have been IN the room with us. Overall poor experience.
