Lovely old hotel! We appreciated its history and old architectural details. The staff was warm, friendly and responsive. If you must have modern and all the conveniences, it might not be for you, but if you want an attractive and clean place to stay with lots of atmosphere, you will want to give Casa del Camino a try.

The location, parking and staff are great. The AC was really the main issue this time, it just did not cool the room enough. Also, the fact that there is no coffee in the room and they charge $6 for it in the lobby is annoying.

Still don't understand the weird kiosk. Maybe it made my stay cost less money or maybe it gave the hotel more profit I don't know but it kinda stinks.
