Great location!

Cute little motel! I really enjoyed its location near a lot of restaurants, cafes and the ocean. The front desk was friendly and helpful. The room was small but the bed mattress was fantastic and I got a lot of rest.

This is a real hidden gem. Walking distance from the Embarcadero, amazing food next door, and the most friendliest people. I will be staying here every time I come back. A few rooms have a great view! But regardless of the view, it’s worth it.

10/10 Exceptional

The man that runs this property is a very sweet and friendly gentleman, eager to make sure each guest is happy, comfortable, and treated with respect. He seems to truly care about each and every guest through his door, a rarity in this day and age. Guests aren't just a number here and that proved he has great customer service here. Lovely sitting area out front!

Cute getaway spot

Would definitely stay here again. They were able to accommodate us having a late arrival (after 5pm). Cute little town, easy walk to restaurants and shops.
Crystlle, 4-night trip

6/10 Good

Amazing location. Right across the street from the water. Great places to eat. View of the ocean and Morro rock. The room, well… The room was on the second floor. It had some soft spots on the floor and it was outdated and a little dirty. Only one room cleaning available per stay. Better that sleeping in your car.
Gabriela, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

near water across from Morro Rock. Many restaurants. nice breakfast next door to hotel. Small hotel, room was fine, not fancy. Had coffee maker and refrigerator, comfortable bed. Easy to get on highway one and 101. Hotel had a nice sitting area with tables.

Lovely plantings, room was clean, good view. classic old roadside motel. Paper thin walls, no water pressure, window doesn’t open, and midway through checking in the clerk just disappeared for twenty minutes.
