The room was nice, the bed comfortable, and I was pleasantly surprised that it was so quiet given that it's just off the highway. There are several restaurants close by. It's a perfect place to stay if you're going to Paso Robles to see the light show (Sensorio). I would definitely stay there again.

The location of this hotel is great and super convenient! Walking distance from the beach and also has a pool with great sun shade when it’s too hot outside to be in the sun for too long. The front desk/owner is very sweet and helpful. My husband and I will definitely return here.

The inn keeper was very friendly and efficient. The room was lovely but had no air conditioning. It was okay with the fan on overhead. The bed was a bit too soft for me. The location is wonderful! Overall a very nice place to stay close to East Beach.
