Really spacious with a great view. The place has seen better days though and is a long way from its hay day. The view of the ocean and surrounds is great, the rooms have had a bit of a spruce up, but the entire property is probably not far off needing a massive renovation. For the price and for a night or two, it's all good.

Great property and great restaurant. Chicken schnitty was great. Room was the cheapest at $204. Bed was lousy. I don't love shower baths and this one wasn't in good condition. Nice dark carpet tiles. The blinds are not wide enough to cover 100% of the windows which is kinda funny and annoying. It was exceptionally quiet and access was easy from the freeway. No street noise as it's secluded. I'd spring for a better room next time and stay there again.
