Fantastic. Warmly greeted with fresh baked cookies. The room was spacious and very clean. Edward, at the front desk, gave me a quick tour. There is a pool, hot tub, and fire pit. They offer free coffee, tea, and hot chocolate until 10:00 pm. The free breakfast included the regular breakfast foods - cereals, toasts, yogurt, etc. but this breakfast included waffles, bacon, scrambled eggs, potatoes and biscuits (very good) and gravy. The beds were very comfortable with 4 pillows each.
Out front as you arrive.
Two very comfortable queen beds.
Table in front table with fresh cookies and condiments for coffee and tea.
Coffee and tea available all day.

The manager at the property was professional. Any issue that needed to be addressed was done immediately. He has a great customer service. Was proactive in the hotels workings and addressed the guests by their last names, which made the stay that much more personable. Love this place. Heated pool. Jacuzzi and a fire pit for the guests to enjoy... this is my new place to stay at.

This motel is across the HWY 1 along the coast. San Simeon is a beautiful coastal area. The hotel is an older property but my room was large and clean. Breakfast was great, and management was hard working and very accommodating.

Great location for a Hearst Castle visit

The check in was easy, and the room was clean and a good sizce. The location was great for visiting the Hearst Castle. The breakfast had a very good selection, but the eggs and bacon were not that great. This hotel was very good for a one night stay.

A wonderful experience. I wish I could remember the name of the clerk who helped me and my daughters when we arrived. He was truly one of the nicest customer service representatives I have ever met. He gave us cookies, allowed a family to eat breakfast food because local restaurants were closed, and personally walked us to the our room. The room was large, clean, and comfortable. I would definitely return and recommend that anyone visiting San Simeon stay at the Quality Inn. A 10/10.
