Bottom 2 ever, and it’s not 2

Room felt like an asylum room. I don’t think they care about how the rooms look or how comfortable they are at all tbh.

We love staying at Asilomar and hope it continues to be maintained. The grounds are tranquil and we love the quiet and peace. One negative review is the breakfast. We’ve been going to Asilomar for thirty plus years and the food use to be much better.

Property was beautiful. Most of the staff were friendly and very helpful. Except for one man at the front desk. Was not friendly at all and he wasn’t even the one helping me. He just stared at me and the other staff I was speaking to. Than I sent my sons to ask for towels and they said a man was very rude to them. Later in the day while in the lobby they pointed him out and it was the same man.

Note: This is a conference center with widely dispersed residential buildings. Pros: Great breakfast (food and staff). 5 min walk to beach from main check in. Cons: Ours was a very old residential building. Breakfast was 7:30-9. They told us water would be shut off 9-11:30 for maintenance. Checkout was noon. They would not allow late check-out, despite the timing of the water shut- down, making it necessary to essentially be ready to checkout at 8 am. This was annoying and difficult as we checked in after 10p the night prior. They assigned our two rooms one ground floor corner, one 2nd floor opposite corner.
