Noise!!!!

Unfortunately, for two nights, there was excessive noise (loud discussions, music and singing) from a group of people that were staying at the adjacent property until 1am in the morning. The property manager said there was nothing she could do about it and it wasn't her problem.

Quiet corner just outside of the big city. Not too far from the beach. The guy who worked the front desk (may have been fhe owner) was very kind and friendly. Place has 2 outdoor hot tubs which my nephew throughly enjoyed. Room was clean and comfy. Parking was very limited when we stayed and many had to park on the street. Overall a good experience and would return.

A quick walk to asilomar beach, very dog friendly. Mutt mitts for dog clean up. Fresh waffles every morning with coffee was a good thing to not worry about. Nice selection of pastries as well to start your morning. They did wine in the evenings. Wifi worked. Having the fireplace in the room was a nice way to warm up the room.

Nice and easy place to stay in PG

Our first time here. Lots of cute extras, like complimentary wine at 4:30, plenty of chairs in the room, a popcorn popper and popcorn, and excellent locally-baked pastries at breakfast. Location is the reason we stayed here (and not our usual site on the same street) and the location is A+. The rooms themselves are clean but dated. Could use better lighting. Our only complaint was a noisy neighbor from 9-12:30 am and that is not the hotel’s fault!

Quiet spot to get your head down.

The staff were super helpful. Had tips and input about the area and the local eateries. The room decor was a little tired. The beds and linens were fresh and clean. Shower had good pressure. Quiet and dark.
