Perfect distance and beautiful views at Avila Beach.

Loved the location, rooftop views, and the extra amenities.

Such a fun, artsy place with amazing staff who are so pleasant and intent of you having a relaxing time.
Pros:

The room view and the little extra like the evening pies

Cons:

The lighting in the room could have been brighter. It was a bit dark in the entry room where we had our luggage.

Our stay was disappointing and I will not go back again. I usually don’t write reviews and I’m not trying to be mean but
Pros:

I liked that this property was right on the beach.

Cons:

We stayed two nights. Housekeeping did not come in to give fresh towels or do anything. When I inquired at the front desk they were very dismissive at first, and then the manager came up to bring towels, and I showed him while he was there the stain on the bedspread. He then changed the bedspread. I told him that they should never put a bedspread on a bed that has a stain on it. Again, he was trying to be nice, but he was very dismissive. We paid $550 a night for an ocean view and this hotel is very old and rundown. They need to put some money into this place if they’re going to ask for these kinds of rates. We ran into another couple who was from Las Vegas, and they were complaining about the hotel and it just felt old and not clean.
Like a lot of places it looks better online than it actually is in person.
I will say that it was a nice touch that they had light breakfast with coffees and tea on the rooftop. Nothing fancy—a little greasy, but it was probably the best part of the stay besides the ocean view. The room did not feel clean and that is probably the most important thing to me.

Cool spot, sorry manager!
Pros:

Location

Cons:

Nothing , I used the wrong debit card to pay, I tried to use a different card the next day to
Clear things up to just one card as I was on a road trip and nobody ever responded back. I left my number and email just to see if they can help me out, they didn’t respond. I Cut my trip a day short and pretty much it was an easy thing to do but they failed to help. I’m at fault for the mistake but they could have helped me if they wanted to. Won’t be back. Over all a cool place though.

Location, location! The Inn is a theater to experience the ocean. Perfect for that
Pros:

Great vistas and locations to appreciate them! Covered porch and a comfy couch to view the ocean. The outdoor roof cafe for breakfast. One of the truly best breakfasts! Flowers everywhere.

Cons:

The shower was over-engineered…inconvenient to use. No elevator. Corrugated ceiling not particularly attractive. No coffee maker, not a big deal….
