The facilities are old and too far from 101, it takes 40 minutes to get there, and you can't continue south along the coastline. You can only say that you can go there without being disturbed, but it's a bit difficult to return to the world.

Great location and views! Walking distance to everything, and the best breakfast/brunch spot is steps away from your room (Surf Point Coffee and Bistro). Ocean views!

The facility location is incredible - oceanfront with beautiful views from the sliding glass door that opens to a balcony. There was no screen on the door, so we were invaded by many flies constantly. The only way to contact staff for help was by text or phone. There was no resolution to this problem other than to have a rusted screen with holes placed that would not move. It had to be left open for air and to use the balcony so flies continued. The room has no A/C or heating so opening for fresh air was needed. Furniture was very old, covers were on cracked leather chairs, the mattress was so old it felt disgusting and unclean. The table wobbled, and there was not a clock in the room. Some electrical outlets were not working. Safety issues included a missing smoke detector with only the holder present, no security lock for the door, no phone in the room and cell service / WIFI were not reliable. You must be able to climb stairs and carry your own luggage up and down as there is no elevator or staff help . There is not an ice maker onsite either. To end this review on a more positive note - The Surf Point Coffee House which is downstairs but not in business with the hotel is fantastic with great food and friendly staff.

Gorgeous lovely surroundings to enjoy the sounds and view of the waves on a black rocky landscape. A great escape to enjoy nature at its best. Foggy mornings, sunny afternoons, then watch the mist return for the evening. The bird life and deer watching was active as well.

Large clean rooms with ocean views! Friendly helpful staff. Quiet - except for the waves crashing in the shore. Great for sleeping! They now have a beautiful cafe on the first floor - also with great views. I love this place! This is my 5th visit and I hope to be back soon.

Last minute trip and this hotel had one room. When we arrived we had the code, checked in and were delighted by the view!
High ceilings were nice as well!
