What a nice little find, close to Half Moon Bay/Pacifica. The Inn was super clean, the suite was amazing with views of the ocean from the spacious deck and room. We loved the color scheme and vaulted ceilings, bed was comfy. The restaurant next door, TimonTaqueria, served a reasonably priced,delicious breakfast.Gweck

This place is walkable to Montara Beach, although you have to follow along a narrow segment of Highway 1 to get there. The room itself was okay, aside from traffic noise (pack your sound machine or white noise app). Furnishings are ample, bathroom fixtures are aged, and there are no frills or amenities onsite.
