The location is great , the view is magnificent! The room was smelly and the staff at the front desk could provide bette
Pros:

Beautiful location ! Restaurant is excellent !

Cons:

I wish employees at front desk had better hospitality .
The room had a musty smell and it’s not possible to get rid of the smell because it was no window in the room and sliding door doesn’t have a screen .

Pros:

View and location were incredible. The room is a bit dated but otherwise clean and comfortable. We really enjoyed the location and close it was to Hearst Castle. The view right from the hotel was beautiful, and we loved walking on the beach right in front of the hotel.

Cons:

The TV was old and fuzzy when we tried it.

OCEANFRONT VIEW! Close to Hearst & fireplace in room made this wonderful.
Pros:

Loved the VIEW beachfront location, the walking path, having a restaurant on site, all the activities such as big chess & checkers, and especially loved the fireplace in the room!

Cons:

The shower pressure was light & the shower drain was clogged. took 20 min for the bathtub drain to clear after a shower.

Pros:

The oceanview, the setting, the trail on the bluff, the beach, the quiet

Cons:

Some of the lights at the hotel were too bright - could be improved for night sky viewing by following rules for dark sky communities

OK aber wir würden es nicht mehr buchen
Pros:

Die Lage direkt am Strand ist sehr schön. Mit zwei Pools und gut ausgestattetem Fitness-Raum ist auch für den Ausgleich auf der Reise etwas gegeben.

Cons:

Leider liegt das Hotel sehr weit außerhalb, wobei die ganze Gegend eher wenig bietet. Das Frühstücks-Restaurant fällt vor allem dadurch auf, dass mindestens vier Damen an jedem Tisch erscheinen. Das Frühstück selbst ist auch für US Verhältnisse eher nicht gut.
Der Check-in war auch eher formal und wenig freundlich. Die Zimmer haben die besten Tage hinter sich.
