The property was nice and clean. They were dog friendly which was nice. Really small property, but all rooms were on floor level. The beds were comfortable for two nights. The rooms were spacious. The fridge and microwave worked well. The showers are small and there is no bathtub but the water pressure was good and the water heat was perfect.

I was pleasantly surprised with this facility, once I was able to work through the difficulties I had with the sticky front door and TV not working the first night. The room was clean, with a very comfortable bed, although there was not many amenities, there was a frig & microwave in the room and they both work great.

Room was clean, plenty spacious enough. For being an older motel, it was renovated pretty well. My only complaint was no counter space in the bathroom, but there really wasn't room for any either. Nice yard with a gas fire pit, was wonderful to sit at in the evening. Grounds are clean, check in was easy. I would stay again.

Comfy, no frills place to enjoy the town.

Stayed here a few times now over the last ten years. Always been a great place to stay. Walking distance to a lot of the town's better restaurants and the Saloon and a short drive to Moonstone Beach and Hearst Castle. Can't recommend more if you're just looking for a clean place with a comfy bed to come back to when you're done with your local adventures.

Exellent vaule and location

This motel is of great value due to its friendly staff and prolximity to town (all walkable) yet just far enough away to be quiet, while also affordable. We'll stay here every time we go to Cambria.
