The check in experience is horrendous, it’s on a kiosk in the lobby with an outsourced worker from India on the screen. Being someone with hearing impairment this was almost impossible for me! The inn hasn’t been updated in a long time, and the mattresses felt very old. Also, one of the fitted sheets on our bed had a blood-like stain on the side. The only plus was that the location is walkable to a good beach.

The hotel room was clean and recently updated. Because it was summer, the rate was way overpriced for a two-star hotel. We were especially disappointed in the check-in process. There was not anyone at the front desk and we had to check in via a kiosk with someone who was clearly not in the USA. On the upside, we had a view of the ocean from our room.

The gal who checked us in was nice. Our room was clean and could see the ocean across the street. We always carry poop bags for our dog. The grass pet area was full of poop, everywhere. They could have bags for people who can't seem to pick up their dogs crap. That is my only complaint. We would stay again, centrally located.

The room felt stuffy and uncomfortable during my stay. The coffee maker in the room was also very dusty, which was disappointing.

That said, I want to commend the staff. Both the front desk team and the virtual support staff were professional, friendly, and efficient. Check-in and check-out were smooth, and the customer service at reception was excellent.

The biggest disappointment was the breakfast. It consisted of black coffee, a small muffin, a piece of candy, and a small apple—more like a picnic snack than what most people would consider breakfast.

Overall, I'd rate my experience 3/10. Unfortunately, I wouldn't choose to stay here again. Next time, I'll spend more time reading reviews before booking. While the staff provided excellent service, the room conditions and breakfast did not meet my expectations.

The ocean-view room was clean and comfortable, and the location was great.

However, communication was very poor. I paid extra through a third-party site to upgrade my room, but it was nearly impossible to reach the hotel. Emails and calls went unanswered, and the virtual assistant was unable to resolve the issue.

The website is also misleading. It advertises a continental breakfast, but the “grab-and-go breakfast” was only the Great value breakfast bar and an apple. They said it was changed for guests leaving early, yet it isn’t available until 7:00 a.m.

Overall, the room and location were good, but better communication and accurate website information would greatly improve the guest experience.

The building looks decent, and there were a lot of people stayed (in July). No employee in the office. A sign says to use kios, but kios doesn't respond. Looked for a bell or ringer, but there was none.

After standing there for 30 minutes, the kios screen turned on. A girl was asking questions. She turned out to be the hotel rep checking us in. I signed the agreement, and room keys were given from a slot.

The room has a old or wet carpet smell. The bed and furniture are old and has a sticky feel on them. Window coverings are old c-thru curtains. It's a basic sleeping quarter for $300 a night. Must be one of those hotels that are owned by scammers. Very disappointed and do not recommend this hotel.

Great location for beach access. Had an oceanfront view however there was a lot of traffic on the road between the hotel and beach that it made it difficult to enjoy the ocean view. The bed really needed to be changed. You could see the bed sink in on both sides. We had the front office lady check it out however there was not another room available. Not a bad property however I thought that it would have been more renovated for the price.

Obscenely expensive pricing just under $500 jacked up by the greed of 'dynamic pricing' for the holiday weekend makes this (and i'm being generous here) 1.5 Star hotel very frustrating to stay at. While some of the room was clean enough, little has been done to update this oceanfront property that you'd think would be immaculate. And when plumbing stopped working, a visit to the lobby found a kiosk where you talk to the owner on a screen in India(or wherever) who directs you to get your own plunger and supplies from behind the counter and fix it yourself. No one even there to supervise the place. Pathetic attempt at breakfast. Par for a $120/night hotel, but at the prices being charged, all we can say is do better...way better.

The advertised “continental” breakfast was Choice of a stale mini muffin or a tiny granola bar. The coffee maker in our room didn’t work. We tried to call the front desk about the nasty food left in the fridge and microwave and it just rang and rang. For $300 a night this was very poor. Stay elsewhere!

How room was okay but the bathroom was pretty dirty. When we checked in there was a lady that greeted us who was attending to another guest and told us to check in with kiosk. With was a first. I DID NOT like it. As I used the kiosk, the real live person finished with the other guest and left. I had redwood questions and wanted to ask about restaurant referrals. The kiosk was such a horrible experience. It’s so loud and to be honest a little humiliating. No one wants to hear others conversations about check in or personal information. One morning as I went to get coffee another employee was at the desk but did not acknowledge me but the kiosk person did. It was so weird and again made me feel out of place. I will not be returning or recommending solely on this reason. The location and view of the ocean was perfect. The experience was not.
