Stayed here for two nights while I was on tour. Loved that there were two stores a short walk down the road for any necessities. Easy access to the beach as well. Calm and quiet spot would definitely recommend staying here

Typically a "cheaper" option than places on Moonstone Beach Drive, which is a main walking path & view spot in Cambria. Only a 5 minute drive. Rooms & Bathroom very clean & beds comfortable, with refrigerator and microwave. Older Motel, but suitable for us, unfortunately no elevator for people who need it. "Ground floor" rooms pets allowed, "Second Floor" rooms pets NOT allowed. Good option for both types of travelers.

It’s a good thing the inside doesn’t match the outside! The room was renovated and clean. The pool and hot tub were extremely dated but my kids still loved it and it was clean and heated. The manager didn’t come to the desk or answer the phone all day until check-in time at 3:00 on the dot. He then charged me more for 2 queen beds because I had booked a king room. The website was actually cheaper than what he charged me, but I let it go and paid the $30 upgrade. Caviar across the highway is much nicer but was also about $160 more a night. Overall, I would stay here again just because of how decent the room is. It also has a spacious mini fridge and microwave which was a super bonus. It’s also walking distance to restaurants.

Really appreciated the maintenance person on site who used his air compressor to put a little air in my rental car tires. Other than that we did not interact with the staff at the Hotel. The room was average, fairly clean. Probably the issue that I found needing betterment was the outside overall condition of the property. Some litter etc. Overall the motel met most expectations.

My family and I have been coming to this motel for years. Really enjoyed the upgrades to the room, especially the laminate flooring. We also loved the convenience of having the large open grass area for our dog. Will definitely go back again!
