"It was our second stay at this hotel. The hotel had undergone a recent renovation, and our room was exceptionally well-designed. The separate sinks for the his and her were a great feature. The room was very clean. The amenities included flip-flops for both, two drinking bottles, and a robe."

"The Valet was great!!! My car would not start, and he spent time helping me and getting it started. I don't know his name, but he was on duty the morning of 08/22/2026. I really really appreciated all his help; He should get a raise!! The room was ok, but the carpets need some help along with the bathrooms."

"Good location for route 1 , bars and restaurants and the harbour but long walk to cannery row area. car parking charge is excessive and unnecessary in my opinion. Breakfast not included and restaurant we thought was expensive so did not use it and walked 5 mins into town. Pool nice touch"
