"jVery nice property. Staff was especially nice. Continental breakfast was very good. Julian at check-in couldn't have been nicer. Room was clean, and there were nice touches--like a fireplace, a walled-in heated pool, easy parking, big TV screen, paper flowers for the TP and tissues, and a towel tied like a turkey. The location is along Rt. 1, and fairly close to Cambria, Hearst Castle, elephant seal beach, Moonstone Beach, and lots of good food places."
