A quiet and relaxing place to rest facing California.
Pros:

The ocean view is wonderful; there are few places where you can literally open the window and the first thing you see is the sea. The hotel is excellent—clean, with parking—and it is super close to Hearst Castle.

Cons:

The room seems a bit expensive to me; however, I wouldn't say it's extremely expensive—just a little.

Pros:

Situació

Cons:

No té aire condicionat. No sé si és un tema de normativa, però en un lloc que s'arriba a més de 40 graus centígrads, no es pot acceptar que un hotel no tingui aire condicionat.

Made our 25th Wedding Anniversary perfectly amazing.
Pros:

The view. The view. The view. Amazing atmosphere. The relaxation came so easy. Did I mention the view was phenomenal? I would love to make this an annual spot.

Disappointed first timers
Pros:

Overall, we enjoyed our stay, however there were a few disappointments. For example, even though we Booked weeks in advance, we were given a room with an adjoining door and could hear the neighboring guests. We asked to be reassigned, and luckily there was one room left in the King building. We were very disappointed that there was no in room fridge since we had food and beverages that needed to stay cold. Not sure that we would return, but will most likely look for a nicer hotel in Cambria. To end on a positive note, the sunset was gorgeous.

Decent and average for a resort.
Pros:

Decent and average for a resort. The interior and exterior were clean but both could use a fresh coat of paint. The location is great and we enjoyed the room facing the ocean, which had a breath-taking view.

Pros:

Prachtige ligging aan de zee, jammer voor ons was er de dag dat wij er waren veel wind en voelde het redelijk koud, waardoor we niet de verwachte ervaring gehad hebben.

Cons:

Al bij al vrij duur voor wat het was.

Wszystko bylo super!

I ALREADY MISS THE VIEWS
Pros:

Absolutely everything. Best thing is the accommodations the staff made when they realized our room was a tad too small and did not fit all the group.

Cons:
