disappointed journey
The guest room which I stayed wasn't ready for commercial, because there was a construction in the doorway outside the room, until 9pm the noise of construction still there. The hotel commercial advertising says "hotel room facing to the sea" this is not true at the Palmoro House, there are facing to the train track and with a huge noise when the pass away in the evening. The main lobby and check in desk located on the main property of Mar Monte, not at the address that the hotel sent to the guest by "1111 E Cabrillo Blvd", it was so complicated and inconvenience.

Palmoro house is beautiful and dog friendly. 2 minute walk to the zoo and the Costa restaurant is fantastic. Its relatively easy to find street parking if you don't want to pay to park on property. Its a beautiful location to walk along the beach in the mornings. Very safe and peaceful.

Unfortunately the bath shower was broken and the vanity sink was clogged. We couldn’t take a shower. We were calling to front desk several times with no luck. We were asking for a compensation but they told us, they couldn’t adjust the rate because our reservation was made by Expedia. They waiver us $30 for the resort fees. Thank you Vanessa

Never again.
We were not expecting to stay in a separate area than the main hotel. I paid a lot of money only to be on a back alley street by a park where homeless people smashed bottles and threw up by my car. It wasn’t a very safe feeling. When we got to the room the fridge was cold and the toilet paper holder was broken. The shower didn’t have any pressure and tub didn’t drain. We paid for a king and got two twins, maybe they were queens but it was not what we reserved. I wouldn’t ever stay here again. What a waste of money for the worst accommodations. Do better.

Bad neighborhood Be Warned
The neighborhood is not good. We witnessed a man shaving n his car. We had to park at a paid parking lot because we did not trust the area Very litttlw cell phone reception in the area too. While we could use the amenities at the sister property, this one isn’t worth the price. Clean up the neighborhood

Checkin went smoothly. Gentlemen at counter was pleasant. I knew this was an offsite property from a very upscale main hotel. This was definitely budget type. For $580 it still was not cheap or worth it. Hotel was $475, additional costs of resort fee and parking up the price. We never ended up going to main hotel or used any of the hotel services since we were there only 1 night. I would not stay there again. I rather pay that for an oceanfront smaller hotel.
