The hotel is right off Rte 1. The rooms are upgraded and nicer than the outside. However, the stairs and corridors could use sweeping. There was trash lying around and spills that were not cleaned at all in the 3 nights we spent here. The breakfast comprises of bread, jam, yogurt, cereal, small egg patties and sausage patties. The problem however is that the owner will not refill anything unless one demands it. We arrived to breakfast on our first morning at 8:45 am. Breakfast is until 10am. The juice and milk was finished and not refilled. The white bread was finished and not refilled. We went in to ask for refills and the owner asked if we could manage with what was left. There was then an episode where an elderly lady (a guest at the hotel) spilled her juice. The owner came in and started yelling at her and telling her she needed to clean up the spill. We were left speechless at his outrageous behaviour.

We liked the close access to the water. It made morning walks on the beach super simple. However, we were not able to get a good night’s sleep because of the pacing of someone in the room above. Plus, the bed was very high and made climbing into bed a real climb.

First - there was no one at registration during checkin. Keys were in an envelope, stuck to the door of the office - there were many keys. Someone could have taken the wrong key or stolen it. The hotel stairs were dirty with trash around. Bathtub didn’t work and there was no one to talk to to fix it. No one at breakfast, no one at checkout. Only staff I met was a cleaning lady.

You get what you pay for. My husband almost refused to stay. The floor was so dirty and the the white bed covers were dirty as well. Other than that, it was whatever. For a quick night's sleep it was suitable but probably not somewhere we would stay again. The guy at the front was very short just handed me a card, didn't say anything or give me any info on where the room was.

Good hotel near Hearst Castle

This hotel is fantastic if you are wanting to stay close to Hearst Castle. It is only about a 7-10 minute drive and is also near the Elephant Seal lookout. The room was overall good, the only things we didn’t like is that the bathroom mirror light was broken, so they had a lamp in its place, and the AC didn’t work. The bed was very comfortable though which we loved. The breakfast was also good with various options to choose from. Overall, we found this place to be a good location and fit our needs for this trip!

The Internet reception was terrible, but the property was very close to Hearst Castle! When I stayed the night, I was planning on doing many things if I had to do over again I would stay in Paso Robles because I felt that I was constantly driving there for the things that I wanted to do. The staff was friendly and the breakfast was good.
