The hotel offered spacious rooms with firm beds, large televisions, microwaves, and refrigerators, but they could have smelled fresher. The service was a mix of rude behavior and exceptional friendliness. The location was perfect for our activities in Half Moon Bay, close to everything. The dining options were nice with a good selection of foods. The facilities were convenient but could use some improvements.

I had a great time walking to the beach from the hotel and found it nice and quiet with very clean rooms. However, there was a door to a neighboring room that made it noisy at times. There was a chunk of plaster missing off the corner of the wall and the rubber slip grip on the steps going to the second floor was peeling up.

I found the hotel to be a great place overall. The rooms were awesome in my opinion, offering a comfortable stay. The check-in process was a bit slow, leaving me waiting for 45 minutes before the room was ready, which was inconvenient as I had an event to attend. However, I was disappointed that I couldn't leave any curtains open for natural light without compromising privacy.

The hotel had a clean and comfortable room, although it was a little smaller than others we stayed in. The bedding and towels were cozy, but the room smelled like cigarettes despite being a non-smoking room. Privacy was a concern as we couldn't leave the curtains open for natural light. The service was friendly and helpful overall, with above-and-beyond friendly staff; however, one person stood out negatively. The location was convenient, close to Hwy 1 and offering easy access to downtown Half Moon Bay and local beaches. The dining experience was enjoyable with good options, although the eggs were not great. The facilities were decent with a nice pool area.

The hotel has a convenient location close to Hwy 1, walking distance to the centrum street, and very convenient to Half Moon Bay downtown and the highway. The rooms had a slight cigarette smell despite being non-smoking, lacked convenient outlets for charging devices, and seemed overpriced for the quality.

The hotel is very conveniently located near the coast highway, making it easy to access with ample parking. It's a short walk to the coastal trail, perfect for outdoor activities, and also close to downtown Half Moon Bay and great restaurants.

My stay at this hotel was a mixed bag. The rooms had everything we needed, but some maintenance issues like a missing chunk of plaster and peeling steps were noticeable. The dog cleaning fee was a bit pricey. The service was decent, although they could have been more friendly and attentive, especially when asking about nearby dining options. The location was excellent for enjoying the coastal trail and beach but lacked some visual appeal. The dining experience was somewhat average, with a hint of classic Italian dishes. Overall, the facilities were adequate but had room for improvement.

I must say this hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were clean and quiet all night, but there was a musty smell that was a bit off-putting. The service was friendly and tried to resolve issues promptly. The location is great, close to the freeway and Half Moon Bay downtown, though not right on the beach. The dining experience had its moments of being small but really good, yet other times it was just minimal quality. Overall, it was a decent stay with some room for improvement.

The hotel had rooms that were a little smaller than most we stayed in on our trip, with some traffic noise, poor sound insulation due to an adjoining door with the next room, but equipped with a fridge & microwave. The service was friendly and helpful, trying to fix the issue with maintenance, being very friendly and accommodating. The location was good with easy access to downtown Half Moon Bay, restaurants, and local beaches. The dining experience was good except for the eggs, and limited options after 9:30. The facilities were fairly good, especially with the variety offered.
