The hotel has a great location near beautiful Pacific Grove and the ocean, perfect for outdoor activities like running and biking. However, I faced some issues with amenities and maintenance, such as a leaking toilet and a rotting deck. The breakfast options were limited and didn't cater well to dietary needs, which was quite disappointing given the price. Overall, there are aspects to improve for a more comfortable stay.
