This was the best hotel I've stayed in for years. It had a kitchen, which is high on my list. it had plenty of room to walk at the end of the bed and the dresser. there was a fireplace, and the view was incredible.

Our room # 207 had an overpowering smell of bleach and the window had no coverings, shades or curtains. The overall condition of the hotel is very rundown and old.

For a place that has been around a while, they are really attempting to keep a friendly and open place. I can imagine the upkeep on a place like this, so close to the water. The view is definitely a huge bonus and within walking distance of access to beach. I had a good stay while taking it easy...with a nice view.

Had a great trip to the coast. The night time gal at the front desk was very friendly and personable. The day time gal not so much a bit dry and not very friendly. Acted inconvenienced when we got there at 2:00 and told us to come back at 4:00. I understand 4:00 is check in time but was rude about it.

This is a quaint vintage mid-century boutique hotel on the top of a bluff just before Taft. We stayed in one of the pet friendly cottages with an ocean view. The room was quite a large suite and very clean, no pet scents. There were add'l chairs to watch tv, along with a full kitchen with table, chairs, dishes and pans, fridge, oven and stove. The only drawback was a very small bathroom and shower, but it was still very nice for an overnight stay at the beach. The staff was friendly and checkin and out was quick.

Enjoyed our stay a great deal. Relaxing hearing the waves. Great view of the ocean, though the windows could use a rinse. Overall a good vacation.

Website depicted room with stunning view of the beach. Problem is, we were 300 feet above the beach and were not physically able to walk down and then back up from beach. The view was obstructed by trees and houses.
