Categories

Cleanliness
5.5
Multiple guests described shabby or unclean rooms (rust on fixtures, crumbling caulk, loose/dirty carpeting); cleanliness is a clear weakness in several reports.
Service
8.1
Mixed reports: several serious front-desk complaints (hung up on guests, slow/no early check-in) but other staff and restaurant service are described positively; service reliability is uneven.
Location
9.5
Consistently praised: oceanfront position, immediate beach access, and short walks to local restaurants (Breakers, Nicks) make location a standout feature.
Room Quality
7.2
Rooms are often dated and in need of updating, with occasional maintenance issues (squeaky beds, heater problems, hot water interruptions), but many rooms offer large layouts and excellent ocean views.
Amenities
8
On-site Moonraker restaurant and direct beach access are positives; however there are complaints about limited breakfast options, intermittent Wi‑Fi and occasional hot-water/maintenance problems.
Value for Money
8
Mixed perceptions: some guests felt it was good value for the location and experience, while others noted expensive in-house dining and dated rooms; overall perceived as fair-to-good value for many guests.
Food and Beverage
8
Moonraker and nearby Breakers are praised for views and menu quality, though in-house dining is noted as pricey; overall food quality is viewed positively despite cost concerns.
Overall Experience
8.1
Overall stays are memorable largely due to location, ocean views and classic/vintage character; negative points (cleanliness, front-desk incidents, some maintenance issues) reduce overall satisfaction for some guests.

I want my money back!
Pros:

This is one of worst hotel I have stayed in. There was such a loud vibrating noise coming from the restaurant that I couldn’t even hear the waves. I booked this hotel to sleep to she sound of waves and all I heard was machines and loud vibrations from their awful electric units supporting their property.

Cons:

I could smell bacon in my room at 7am and it nauseating

I don’t think I’ll be going back.
Pros:

The Ocean

Cons:

I stayed there before, it just seemed like the property has gone down. The front deck person “Lin” was very unhelpful. Not someone I would want to do business with ever again. Rooms need to be cleaned better and carpet needs to be cleaned or replaced.

Great place to stay, close to San Francisco but right on the beach.
Pros:

The view can't be beat! It's right on the ocean. We saw whales breaching from our room. Fantastic!

Cons:

The exterior of the property is showing a lot of rust and weathering.

Hotel and area are amazing. Check in staff in late afternoon need to be terminated.
Pros:

I always stay at the lighthouse when traveling to Pacifica/Bay area because I like the hotel, the moonraker, Breakers and Nicks restaurant, the ocean view and the fog that comes in at night. It almost feels magical if you stay up late and walk outside at night.

Cons:

4 o'clock check in with no chance of early check in. staff hung up on me at minimum 6 times without letting me say one word. Very upset. (During 1-5 pm) pissed me off really bad....

Excellent
Pros:

The location is sensational. We had an ocean view suite and the ocean was literally just a few yards away. We even had spray on the windows. Whilst they don't serve breakfast, there is an excellent diner, Breakers, just outside the door. The room was large and had everything we needed. Beach walks just outside. I booked this for our first few nights on a US trip as an alternative to using an airport hotel for acclimatisation. One of my best decisions.

Cons:

Ir was a little dated and in need of some refurbinplaces. The in house restaurant served dinners but they were incredibly expensive.
