Works, but....

Decent place, but not very clean, at least not my room. My coffee pot had a broken beak, and there was thick dust on ledges and on the blinds. Check in staff in was friendly and recommended local things to do. I hope they get their cleaning staff on par, and do a bit more QC, it's otherwise a decent place to explore around Hearst castle and PCH.

It was a decent motel for a one night stay. Pros: 1. Great location, right across the beach, and a few restaurants near by 2. Staff was polite and understanding 3. The air conditioning system worked well Cons: 1. There was no complimentary breakfast 2. Price was a bit on the higher side 3. There was a bit of dirt in the room (understandable as it's right closed to the beach) 4. There was a water dripping noise coming wither from the plumbing inside the bathroom or the air conditioning system. It wasn't too loud but not too quiet either.
