I stayed in the motel portion for 2 nights. A couple of things that made life a little interesting were the non standard set of four steps leading up to the deck and entrance door. There was also no shampoo in the room and only those little soaps. Good job I bring my own. On a plus the pool was open the first day I was there, the water was awesome. For some reaso it wasn't open the second day, however the weather was nice but not as nice as the day before. The beds were good as well as the decor. AC unit was a bit noisy but worked well. I would come again but use a cabin.

Staff was very nice! Room was very clean, the location was really good, easy, short walk to national park ocean view, it was really nice. Stayed in ING102 hot water on shower did not work. Also no designated place to smoke weed on the entire property, so wasn’t allowed, which was fine for me. But which could be an issue for someone who needs it for medical reasons.

The water was lukewarm, the heating and laundromat were not worked and the blanket was too thin, so it was cold when I slept. Anyway, it’s bearable for the environment, but it's a pity that the strong smell of detergent on the blanket is so full that my head hurts.
