Great access to Asilomar Conference grounds where I was attending a conference. Property is old and kind of funky and shows its age.

Perfect!
This was perfect for our getaway! We enjoyed having not only a living area and kitchen, but also our own private outdoor patio to enjoy the beautiful weather! We would absolutely stay here again!
It can be classified as "shabby chic" as my girlfriend put it, but frankly I didn't want to leave. We had the suite that has the kitchen, large deck, fireplace-- I know I could have stayed longer. Really the only thing missing it was dish towels and a dish rack to make cleaning our dishes easier. I'm not even sure people realize that there were actually utensils available. It made it very easy to not just stay here but make it feel a little bit more homey.
Great place and an amazing room that had everything a full kitchen full s8ze living room with bed and fireplace 2 huge patios and a second nice size room with pullout bed. Staff was amazing and tons of parking.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Pros:
Friendly and attentive staff
Clean and well-maintained rooms, Comfortable beds
Good breakfast options
Small work table for productivity
Cons:
Small/Tight parking spaces
Outdated TVs with poor reception
Noisy ceiling fans
Overall, we had a comfortable stay, but I feel the price is steep for what is provided. The hotel's proximity to the beach is a definite plus, making it a great choice for beachgoers. But if you're visiting for other reasons, there might be better options.

Liked: Cleanliness
Bathroom sink hot/cold water faucets reversed. No towel bars to hang up towels after a shower. These are expected at any hotel.
Staff was super nice.. from the front desk to housekeepers!! All were super friendly!! It was our family’s third time there and we will continue to come back every year!!
We will not return to this property. We have stayed there for many years. In our experience , the owner/manager now, doesn't value return guests and appears he is rarely at his property.
We have many other options for staying in that area.

Old but Quaint
Older property but well maintained and very clean.Quiet surroundings. Nice breakfast room for continental breakfast.
The room was very large and had a living room, bedroom, bath and full kitchen.
We would definitely stay here again.
The property was clean, the maid service was excellent, the grounds were beautifully well-kempt. The bed was comfortable and the size of the room was nice.
I stayed for over a week so a toaster and real coffee maker in the room would have made the kitchen excellent.
The room was ready for some up-dating of furniture and carpet, but still fine.
I enjoyed my stay and would stay again. My favorite thing was the fireplace next to the bed. That was heavenly!
This is a great hotel. The retrofit design makes it a special place. Tucked away in quiet neighborhood close to everything. I would definitely return and recommend it to anyone.
