Quiet get away with a patio and views and close proximity to downtown.
Pros:

We loved the location, views and proximity to the down town area. The rooms were a good size with a nice patio to sit down.

Cons:

The only thing we did not enjoy was the heating and AC. The knob was confusing since it was just cooler and warmer option printed on the knob. we never figured out if there was actually an AC in the room.

Absolutely Perfect
Pros:

Very few things in life are exactly as they seem online. I have very high expectations which are usually dashed; however, our stay here surpassed my expectations. The hotel is located directly on the beach. A short walk and you are on a very natural path down to the beautiful coast and water. It was foggy the whole time we were there, but it was very beautiful nonetheless. Check-in was easy. Staff was friendly. The room was absolutely fantastic. They have thought of every detail of anything you could possibly need. Extremely comfortable, great bathroom, water pressure, etc. Extremely clean. I want to mention Mayan Fusion also. It is a restaurant down the street and it is some of the best food I’ve ever had. Highly recommend it. If we ever find ourselves in Fort Bragg again, we will definitely stay here (and also go to Mayan Fusion).

Great ocean views but the room needs some work.
Pros:

Location was great. The views of the Ocean were incredible. Some of the staff went out of their way to help when requested. For instance , I needed more hangars and they brought them to my room for me.

Comfortable bed

Nice sized refrigerator

Cons:

There are no elevators and carrying luggage up two flights of stairs when you are 61 is not easy or fun. I requested assistance ahead of time but did not receive help.

The room had a large crack in the sink and a leaking faucet. I notified staff but nothing was done. Maybe they were going to fix it after I left?

There is no daily room service. You can request one after a few days to freshen your room.

The sauna tub was great but it also doubled as your shower. It was very hard to get in and out of the VERY deep tub. You had to use a step stool and hand rail to get in and out.

Water pressure would constantly drop during your shower if someone else was using their tub or shower at the same time.

Pros:

The staff was very pleasant. The housekeeper had no problem giving me extra towels when I approached her. The location was the best

Cons:

The wall heaters did not work. No room service from housekeeping for 4 days. The place is not cheap. We recieved 2 towels for 4 nights. I conserve water and resources but that is gross. The person on the second floor must have worn his lead shoes. He started at 6 a.m. and didn't stop until 3 a.m.
