They have a car charger level 2 on site which is helpful for topping off before you head up into Big Sur if you own an EV. It's about a 5-minute walk to a beach and a beautiful sunset.

Staff was friendly and helpful. Room was clean and tidy-oddly arranged-refrigerator right next to the entrance and blocking ability to exit one of the two queens from the left hand side. Shower was very small. Light switch by door either was broken or didn’t connect to anything, hair dryer in the bathroom did not work. Beds was clean and comfortable, good available parking, and near tourist attractions, Cambria and the ocean.

Staff were very pleasant and helpful. The seating area around the pool is well maintained and surrounded by lawn. Beautiful grounds and good parking. We will definitely be back.

Great location with walkable beach access. The rooms are old and outdated. The carpet floors were so soiled I didn’t want to take my shoes off, the cabinet to the refrigerator wouldn’t close, no AC and the toilet ran the entire night because the water bowl wouldn’t fill up all the way.
Toilet kept running

Very nice roadside motel. Clean, friendly staff, good location. Restaurant not a focal point but good choices not far away. Not overly walkable to other spots except very walkable to beach front. If you get a semi noisy group in room near you can be hard. First days were great then a loud family w stomping kids running back and forth changed the dynamic greatly. Not horrible but much less relaxed beach vibe. I spent week sleeping in to the sound of the ocean and enjoyed it.
