Enjoyable stay
We really liked everything about Zaballa house lately. The room was very spacious with lots of natural light and super clean. Didn’t hear any neighbors nearby which was a plus. Loved the balcony and views of Main Street. I would definitely stay here again.

No office or on site staff. Could not find our room plastic card keys to get into room-it took about 15 minutes for me to find them at one of the "cottages" on a small table on the porch of the cottage. (Once we found the envelope with the room key, there was a phone number provided to call for "hotel emergencies". Door was incredibly difficult to open- it took anywhere from 3 to 10 tries before it would activate. Really steep stairs to get to our room. Toilet backed up on the last day- we called property manager, and he promised to send out someone to fix it. We asked to wait for about 45 minutes, and after 30 we called again to say we were ready. He said someone would be out soon. After waiting about 30- 40 minutes, we had finished packing. We went to Burger King abut a mile away to use their bathroom. Great location, a spacious room, and comfy bed. The room decor was over the top Vegas gaudy! too many other negatives. We will stay at another hotel when we come back to Half Moon Bay.

Great location for downtown access and coastal access. Hotel was unique but in need of some renovation and repairs. The bed was terrible and must be updated.

Let's face the reality that this location has seen better days...The building itself is not in tip top shape...Various trim pieces of wood around the building are in need of replacing...As in rotted...The room although spacious was not in great shape...Paint was chipped in many locations and decorations were a bit too kitschy...I get the Italian influence if that is what they were trying to achieve but overwhelming yard sale/thrift shop design was a bit too much...The room was quiet...The bed was comfortable...The breakfast was ok...We travel to Half Moon Bay often as my family is from there but we wont be using the Zaballa again...
