Our room was great! It was the King Suite Balcony so it was up off the ground and had a great view but for the power lines.. the record players are a great touch too! The tones are nice but should be cotton… overall a wonderful stay, we will be back!

The staff here were amazing! And the restaurant/bar attached to the place makes for easy choices at the start or end of your day. During this time of year there is a trolly that comes by to take you around town for free. And the beach is just across the street. Brilliant.

It was the best getaway location! Felt super comfortable and was very private! Everyone was super nice and friendly answering all our questions. Within walking distance to the beach and close to additional dining options. I will be returning!!

Overall this property and aesthetic was like shown in pictures. Very cute. The property is level with the PCH, you only have an ocean view if you’re on the 2nd floor. Ground floor view is PCH and railroad tracks. Which by the way the trains come by frequently. You cannot hear the ocean from our room because there was a fountain running the whole time, and that’s all you hear.
The room was very clean, beautifully designed and vibe is so nice. The bathroom shower head was so high, which is great for rather tall people, but I am 5’3 and any way I moved the shower head water flow was almost hitting me directly in the face. The water pressure though was amazing. The room offered a mini bar and then only instant coffee packs and tea for free. They have coffee for purchase at their bar.
The entire staff was wonderful, so kind attentive and a pleasure. The bonus with the shower head water was I was able to check out the Dyson hair dryer from the front desk which is amazing and not having a tiny crappy dryer in the room(I have a lot of hair, need a good dryer)
The breakfast food/drinks for purchase were really good and the coffee was great. Pastries were supplied by a local bakery and the croissants were amazing.
Overall it wasn’t a bad stay, or really amazing one; just wasn’t what you would expect for an “ocean view” room.

Krystal, thank you for sharing your experience. It seems the property met your expectations in terms of design and cleanliness, and the team members were attentive and kind, which is great to hear. The amenities such as the Dyson hair dryer seemed to have enhanced your stay too. However, we regret that the view and some elements of the room setup did not entirely meet your expectations. The property appreciates your insights and will continue to strive for improvements.

This is a wonderful boutique hotel. They have paid attention to every detail to make staying here a wonderful and unique experience.
Great drinks and small bites are available in two lovely outdoor areas or inside at the cozy bar. The rooms are lovely - the Mexican tile throughout is spectacular.
