Top San Simeon State Park Hotel Reviews

Sea Breeze Inn

10/10 Excellent

"The parking lot was completely empty when we arrived just after noon, but the girl was quite short “check-in is at 3p”. When we came back at 5p, there might have been a total of 10 words said. The room was clean, well appointed, it was on the beach side and it was as quiet. Ps we tried to notify someone the toilet was clogged but no one was at the front desk to checkout. Do apologize for that surprise."
