I wanted to give this place a 5 star review but the rooms are very tiny, heating system did not work and we had to get a portable heater from another room. TV did not work and breakfast was not really a breakfast. Staff was nice. Just needs a lot of updating.

Amazing hidden gem!
Although the hotel is going through some renovations, most of the cabins are complete and they are beautiful! It is a quiet part of Jenner where this motel is situated, right off Highway 1. It's easy to miss this gem, after driving through the twists and turns of the great PCH. When we arrived at 5pm, the note on the front reception door led us to pick up our keys from the attached diner/pub. We grabbed our keys and proceeded to explore our room. We stayed in Room #17 (King Bed, 2nd story) and it was absolutely wonderful. Beautifully plush King bed with very limited amenities. The key feature to this room is the balcony, it's brand new hot tub, and the ocean view! It's gorgeous! We loved our stay in this quiet, roadside inn. The attached bar & grill was quaint, but they served an amazing menu for such as small outlier of a restaurant. The staff was very accommodating and helpful. The reception area offers cereal, muffins, pastries, coffee, hot water for tea, and such for breakfast. There are souvenirs available for purchase. The back of the property is still being "refinished" but it's the quality & cleanliness of the room is what you're paying for. We were very impressed. There's nothing quite like sitting in your own private hot tub, enjoying a cocktail or glass of wine, while you listen to the ocean crash on shore, and watch the sunset from the most perfect angle in town. We can't wait to come back!

Remote to the TV didn't work, no ice maker so trip down the parking lot to the diner was necessary, office is only part time staffed and difficult to get help, housekeeping was excellent, heater malfunctioned on the second day, shower was slippery, fridge was turned off and melted ice pooled in bottom.

This strip motel was an older facility. The room barely accommodated the double bed, and one stood very straight to fit into the shoower. However, the staff were wonderful and friendly. They went above and beyond to get us in early. Everything was very clean. The ocean view was a half mile away across the highway and fields. All that was OK. BUT, the attached restaurant closed early. They said 7, but were closed when we returned at 6:30. The closest open restaurant was 45 minutes on a tightly winding highway! We ate popcorn for dinner! Otherwise it was OK. Since it was the cheapest hotel in an expensive area, it fit our budget. I'd stay again, but bring more food. It was pleasant to eat popcorn and wine on their terrace, watching the sun set.

An old motel with rooms so tiny, there isn’t even space for a coffee table, let alone a mini fridge or a microwave. Good luck fitting into the bathroom and shower as well. One thing for sure, there is an ocean view from every room, although don’t expect easy access to the beach.

Honestly, one of the most baffling Check experiences I’ve ever had. Got there a Little early. My room wasn’t ready, which was understandable. The guy at the front desk, then walked out the front front The front of the hotel and proceeded to sit on a bench and smoke cigarettes when I check back in with him at 3 o’clock to ask if the room was ready in between puffs of smoke he said I could go check and see if the room was ready and hand me the key. The room was insanely small. The water running out of the faucet tap in the bathroom was brown. The coffee machine did not work after I checked in. It didn’t seem that there was anybody at the property the office was closed until I left at 8:30 in the morning Do not recommend

Great location, great staff (including at attached restaurant); traditional motel, with all you need - small, comfortable room with a good bed. Can hear the sea at night - very calming. Would definitely stay there again.

Never again. Address says Jenner, but a challenging 30 minute drive north of other Jenner facilities. Very basic accommodations. Heating and cooling is questionable. Very remote. WiFi sporadic.

Nice location, but the road was under heavy construction. Restaurant closed, no water in the room upon arrival, noisy construction on property until 8pm and again in the morning. Very dated bathroom fixtures.
