Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort
Disliked: Staff & service
Room was clean no soap at sink in bathroom no services available as only one massage therapist works there no other “spa” treatments available. No towels at the hot tub. Plumbing poor. Help at the front desk not very helpful
The room really needed more lighting. There is no overhead lighting at all and could use a freestanding lamp in the corner at night. The main room is very dark.
Beautiful large room with nice bathroom! Nice hot tub with very steamy steam room is a welcome free touch to help relax! Beds and pillows were firm but not uncomfortably hard or flat (which seems to be the standard for the West Coast!). Room was fairly quiet, and food in town was only a short drive. Very convenient for a morning tour at Hearst Castle!
Went for an anniversary stay-cation, and loved it. Beautiful, clean room with a fireplace. Cute boutique hotel with nice helpful staff too. Easy access to Moonstone beach boardwalk. Will definitely be coming back.
The customer service from all staff members was a D! There were excuses daily! We checked out a day early! I’m waiting for a refund for 1 nights stay. I asked for management to call me and haven’t heard from anyone!! Poor!!! Do not stay at this hotel resort!
Pet friendly. Friendly staff. Comfortable beds. We were missing a window covering from one our windows and had to use a towel for privacy and light block light. There was also a small ant infestation in our room. Probably from previous guests food crumbs. Not a dealbreaker, but woke up to ants crawling around us in the middle of the night. Luckily, they were non biting ants.
