I wish we had more time there! Super recommended!
Pros:

Absolutely everything! The hotel is beautiful, and the room was spacious and equipped to every little detail we could think of, large windows with a lovely view and a cozy fireplace. It was dreamy. The staff was also very nice and helpful. The overall experience felt like this hotel is very generous, the lobby offers hot beverages etc. There is also a cute spa with a jacuzzi and sauna we enjoyed. And I booked a massage session with the lovely Linden that was divine. The location is great, within a walking distance to the beach. There is a comfortable on site parking as well, which was important to us as we were traveling by car.

Cons:

Nothing

Pros:

The beds were comfy.

I called the staff and spoke to them regarding our phone and watch charger being left behind. They stated they would mail them to us, but they did not.

Disappointed with Car Charger situation
Pros:

Room was spacious for 3 people. It was a quick walk to the beach but did not overlook the beach.

Cons:

We stayed at this hotel because it stated there was a Tesla charger. There was an old one that was broken and looked as if it has been that way for a long time. It also had electrical tape on it to keep it together! Misleading information and the hotel should not be able to advertise that they have one to use! Hotel needs renovation.

Luxury at a Great Price
Pros:

Beautiful and relaxing hotel. Sauna and hot tub are divine! We had a jacuzzi room and the jacuzzi was amazing. Love the self service wine/beer wall! Hotel was a perfect location for us to rest after Big Sur and on the way to San Luis Obispo. Hotel is very close to restaurants and shops. Great price especially for the amenities

Cons:

Loved it all

Cons:

The breakfast was not great and was quite basic.

Huone oli iso, hyvin siisti ja hiljainen. Kylpyhuoneessa oli poreamme, ja sehän oli mainiota.

Cons:

Aamupala oli hieman surullinen.
