Top Central California Hotel Reviews

Hotel Pacific

Hotel Pacific

8/10 Good
"The room was next to the road so you can all the noise from the outside. I’m glad I brought my earplugs or it would have been an incredibly shtty night Staff was meh; did the bare minimum. A little bit disappointed how I had to ask multiple questions in order for them to help me store my temp-sensitive medicine - she was not helpful at all. No air conditioning which is fine - but they could have offered a fan. I did not know we could request a fan until I read reviews of the property. They could have given us that option upon checking in. We never tried the breakfast - I read it was meh. The least they could do was provide hotel slippers - do they expect guests to walk around the bathroom with shoes on? How about the living room and bedroom area? Disposable slippers should be the bare minimum"
