Pros: Location was nice. Right across from the ocean. Also had a nice continental breakfast
Cons: The location of the hot tub to the pool is ridiculous and the hot tub was full of bugs so it was not useable. That may have been due to the loudest weather we had

Pros: Location. We've stayed here numerous times. Not many places in California that you can walk across the street from your hotel and be on the beach.
Cons: We were surprised that this room did not have air conditioning. Open window and ceiling plan made up for it tho'.

Run down and way overpriced...
Pros: Location of the property.
Cons: We paid for suite but had a room a little above Motel 6 quality.
The door handle on our closet was literally hanging by a screw. The window screens were bent allowing bugs to get in. One of the fans had a faulty switch. The sliding glass door did not lock and the security bar used to hold it shut was also hanging by a screw.
The worst and most disgusting issues was I found dried human waste (poop) on one of the robes. I brought this to the managements attention and nothing was done other than a note from housekeeping saying the problem was fixed and two extra pieces of chocolate shaped like vacuums were left with note.We should've been given a free night minimum for the robe issue.
If you care about customer service and complaints, feel free to contact me. I have no plans to ever stay at this facility again.

Do not recommend
Pros:
Cons: Checking into the hotel. we were informed that there were no bell boys, so we had to carry our luggage all the way up to our room.
The real nightmare was the breakfast. The breakfast menu was incomplete based on an argument that the cook had not arrived yet. There were not even eggs served. By 7:30 AM, there was still no update on the breakfast service.

Very good
Pros:
Cons: There was no instruction about having to use the fireplace as the heater. The thermostat didn't say. So we looked for a heater duct for central heating. Finally, The service tech that came to the room told us. The ceiling fan cut out. It worked, then it didn't work. Since the ceilings were tall, it was assumed that having it on would circulate the heat better. We got cold. But, they told us at the desk to leave the fireplace on while we left for dinner ( again, something in the room could have explained all of this). In the end, we did get warm.
There should be some hooks for clothes and robes in the bathroom.
The expensive bottled water was way overackaged and seemed out of place. Domestic water that is more sustainable and, better yet, complimentary would have been better.

We will likely come back!
Pros: Friendly staff, very comfortable, spacious room, and incredible towels. A few good suggestions by staff for eating places and amusements. We will more than likely stay at the same inn or another managed by the same company. They are first rate!
Cons: I'm always a bit sore after sleeping in a firm bed. Not much I can do about that, as most hotels are choosing firm mattresses these days. Also was charged an extra fee for one day, but the charge was reversed on checkout.
