Ocean view is complemented by rusty gas station. I paid extra for ocean view, but only ocean you could see was in the far distance and through tree branches.

A Few Small Touches Would Help A Lot

I want to love this hotel, but... With just a few small things it could be so much better! Like, put a real coffee pot in the lobby. Maybe a few snacks, too. Get rid of the towels that have holes in them. Tighten the screws on the doorknobs. Real cups and glasses in the rooms. These are inexpensive, small items that would go a long way in upping their appeal.

Beware of extra charges

Beware of extra charges not mentioned in the Total Price on hotels.com. Extra charges were not mentioned at check-in, receipt was not emailed upon check-out. Room was pleasant, but no ocean view

Although there is not a lot of options for coffee and other things. Our room was amazing. We had the top floor, when we asked questions on where to go, he was friendly and told us where to see the star fish and just have a good time and food with in a decent time. I really just loved the view and how peaceful it was.

This could be a lovely small inn, but needs much more attention to details. The beds are too hard, the pillows lumpy, and the bath towels way too small and scratchy. Service is impersonal and there is no restaurant or food of any type available. What a shame.

Room #2, overall it was a great. What’s negative about over stay was that the mattress could be changed…it was a bit caved in and the patio blind was unable to close. Price for the room was reasonable so would stay there again.

**Ocean View Inn – A Tranquil Retreat by the Sea** If you’re seeking a peaceful escape with stunning views, the Ocean View Inn is a perfect getaway. Nestled along the coast, this charming inn offers a serene atmosphere and a front-row seat to the beautiful ocean horizon. **Location:** The location is undoubtedly the inn's strongest point. Situated just a few steps from the beach, the sound of crashing waves is the perfect soundtrack to your stay. Waking up to the sight of the sun rising over the ocean is nothing short of magical, and you can enjoy it from the comfort of your room's private balcony or the cozy common areas. **Rooms:** The rooms are spacious and clean, with modern amenities that blend well with the inn’s coastal charm. Large windows allow plenty of natural light, making the most of the ocean view. While the décor is simple, it exudes a calming, beachy vibe, perfect for unwinding after a long day. **Service:** The staff is friendly and attentive, ensuring a pleasant stay. Check-in is smooth, and staff are always available to offer recommendations for local restaurants, activities, or just to chat about the weather. It’s clear they care about their guests’ experiences.

We treated ourselves to the Ocean View Penthouse, which is very spacious and nicely appointed and does have good ocean views. The view would be even better if the one distorted window were replaced. There's a little frig, microwave, ice maker, and coffee maker (which can also heat water for tea). That's all great. Take your own dishes, cutlery, etc., if you want to eat in the room. One other consideration is there's no elevator and it's 49 steps up to the room, tho if you park in the back or north side then it's only 39 steps. The "fireplace" is electric and not very convincing, so that was disappointing but minor. Just don't picture yourselves cuddling up before a crackling fire. Montara State Beach is a short 10 minute walk away but not a nice one, as part of it is on Highway 1 with no shoulder and vehicles hurtling past. We'll probably drive it next time we go. It's a short drive to the Devil's Slide Trail and that's a good place to walk. There are trails up in the hills behind the Inn as well. We haven't explored those. All in all, we like staying there. This is our second stay.
