Amazing experience

I’ve been to several hotels in the San Simeon location and honestly this was the best family experience as of yet. First and foremost, Edward from the front desk was the absolute best and I would come back just for his service and hospitality skills. Calling individuals but their last name (and mine is complicated), making sure our room was satisfactory, giving me a walk through your of the facility was over the top. My son The breakfast was great and a warm swimming pool and jacuzzi was over the top. Parking was simple and the hotel being located across from a beach was the cherry on top.
