Ideal for Hearst Castle

Booked at last minute after visiting Hearst Castle nearby. Great value for a quick overnight stop. Was undergoing some refurbishments to reception but room was spacious, clean and good bathroom. Good Mexican restaurant opposite the hotel.

It was a nice overnight stay. We were checked in quickly by kind staff. The rooms were clean, beds were comfortable. One drawback was being woken up in the middle of the night by a long argument happening in the parking lot. Otherwise a nice place.
