Hair in the bathtub and sink. Front desk staff were not very helpful getting checked in. I had to explain myself multiple times without anyone actually listening. I was cut off multiple times and left work early due to the miscommunication. Not satisfied, I won’t come back.

I really like the Rambler Motel. It’s close to where my brother lives, but he lives on a boat, so it’s great to have a close motel. It’s a really cool place when everything and everyone are working. I came when they had unusual issues, and I would stay there again without question. However, this time it was just different than usual. Their system was down at check in and they told us we would have to wait. We came back an hour later, their system was still down. I had to mention that I checked in online days before when they emailed me to do so. They had me checked in all along. The next morning the system was still down and they couldn’t get us coffee because they couldn’t ring it up. I thought they should have been able to bill the room. The next morning they couldn’t get us coffees because the other person didn’t show up. We didn’t have a vehicle, so we had to wait for a ride. No coffee in the morning is never good for me.😎

This hotel was a good value. Kids are tricky to travel with because they have food preferences that can be tricky to cater without a small refrigerator and we were with kids and there was no refrigeration. This is the only hotel we have been to that doesn't have coffee in the room. As parents we appreciate our morning coffee nice and early so waiting for the coffee shop to open was not fun. The staff were nice and the pool was wonderful. We had a great time as a family and felt safe so overall it was worth it♡

Loved the cleanliness, simplicity, and retro decor. Our room was devoid of a microwave and refrigerator, but we didn't need those appliances. The price for a minimalist room was reasonable. The bay is close and the sunsets are gorgeous.

The staff at the hotel and the cafe were incredibly kind and accommodating. Our flight in was delayed by 4 hours and we didn’t end up getting there until around 4am. The staff at the front desk were so kind, made check in quick and easy and offered us refreshments since we had been traveling all day. 10/10 would recommend and we definitely will be staying there next time we visit the west coast!
