When we arrived, there was no power anywhere in Cambria. The manager (at least she said she was) was sitting in the dark. It was a chilly night and power wasn't expected until 3am so we didn't want to stay if there wasn't going to be heat. She promised she would refund the money but it never happened. They can't seem to be reached by phone. No one answers and there is ability to leave a message. Highly disappointed in them and I don't have any recourse because I booked through Expedia and they can't reach anyone there, either. I would NOT recommend. They have disappointing reviews for other reasons as well. I should have taken those as a warning to stay away from this place. If you are reading this, you have been warned.

We were initially disappointed with our room, as it featured a jacuzzi tub positioned adjacent to the bed with no privacy, open to the main space. When we asked about room service for the following day, we were informed that it must be requested at check-in—a detail we hadn’t been made aware of. However, Kerri went above and beyond to assist us. She kindly offered us an alternative room (with a tub) that had a fully enclosed bathroom. Her extraordinary accommodation and helpfulness turned what could have been a disappointing experience into a truly enjoyable stay.

Check in went well. Hotel advertised breakfast but it doesn’t qualify. They had a coffee and a couple of prepackaged gross pastries. The room was nice but ceiling fan was very dirty. Room was also a dead zoom no cell service. Overall stay was ok but a little over priced for what it offered.

Awful! No breakfast for the whole stay; the hotel claimed that the food delivery didn’t make it and it is once a week Hot tub not functioning although they called for service again Water pressure almost nil to zero pretty bad Mold all over see attached pictures Toilet very dirty and after several requests they never cleaned it see pictures No working elevator which is problematic for people with neurodiverse capabilities Quite a pity, this hotel could be very nice if the owner were to be more involved

I really enjoyed the stay and the room was very nice and comfortable. I was very disappointed that the spa wasn’t working and the elevator. I wish they would have mentioned it when they had called me to confirm my reservation. Also I wish the staff would have controlled all the horse playing by children in the spa. I had went there for my anniversary for something romantic. Overall I loved the hotel.

The property is very misleading on this app with me and my husband arrived. We were informed that the front entrance door was broken and did not lock to me this unsafe and dangerous atmosphere each day that we asked for a massage. We were told that there was none available again, the property is very misleading, please do not waste her money

Overpriced. Calls itself a SPA but there were no spa amenities. The night we arrived the air conditioning was on full blast and it took us hours to get the room temperature to a comfortable level. Staff were friendly but it was impossible to get anything taken care of after hours. Room was average.

The only thing out of place in this hotel was the breakfast, which consisted of prepacked low quality foods, in stark contrast to the rooms, the friendly personel and the wellness.

This hotel used to use unscented cleaning/laundry products. I called directly to ask if they still did & was assured they use unscented products. When we got to the room, a strong unpleasant scent hit us immediately. We went to the desk to explain we were told "I can't imagine who would have said that. We use very fragrant products." She suggested we air out the room. We tried for several hours & even slept w/the doors & windows open. The scent was so strong it impacted our sleep & it still smelled in the morning. [Some of my clothes still smelled after washing & hanging for a week.] We weren’t offered a solution (clean the room w/another product, suggestion to move to another room, nothing). We left for the day w/the windows open, but the room still had a strong smell. We ended up leaving after we returned. First we were told we could not get any refund. When we went to check out, we couldn't because she couldn't figure it out. They eventually refunded part of the stay, but our vacation was cut short. Telltale signs: no one at the desk (for 10-15 minutes–no sign/note). We were told that, although breakfast was supposed to be included, “They’ve wiped us out, but there is a little oatmeal & cereal.” Re: “spa”: no massage therapists working that week & the only spa-like things were a steam shower & jacuzzi. Every issue raised, the desk clerk said she’d have to call her boss. Poor management. Empower your staff, ensure desk coverage, food as advertised, etc. Stay elsewhere.

Arrived late (12AM) and before we arrived, we got a call from the front letting us know the front desk was taking off after 10PM or so. They were helpful and left a voicemail when I wasn't able to take the call (no service on PCH) and when I called they were happy to share instructions on how to successfully get access to our room. Otherwise, there was no access to the front desk and there is little to no cell service there so you're unable to make a call to the number left for emergencies. There was no wifi (and we couldn't gain service to call any staff for wifi) which was a bit difficult. They technically have wifi available but it would not work for us no matter what. Perhaps a room issue or a temporary issue. We booked evening of for a quick stop during our road trip. It was a cute place to stay with a couple complimentary breakfast items available such as bagels, cereal, etc. The front desk was sweet in the morning and was happy to restock the cream cheese for bagels when I asked. It sufficed for our last minute needs but it was a bit trifling to not have access to wifi and not be able to contact anyone for any problems or issues we could have and did run into. I also saw a spider hang out in the room. Overall it's a cute place to stay for a bit that feels locally run if that's your vibe and you want to support local businesses in the area.

Our stay was ok. We expected more from what the website said it offered and the price point. Our room was noisy and overlooked a gas station. Our bathroom had empty soap dispensers only one roll of toilet paper and 2 towels. The staff was friendly and did correct the problem when we let them know . I was clean but we were unimpressed.

It is a very nice upscale property. Rooms and bathrooms are quite large and spacious. All the amenities are nice. There is a fridge in the room but no microwave. But there is a microwave in the lobby. Safe and secure basement parking. Some of the rooms have Hot Tubs. Hot tubs are relatively small for two people and there is an extra charge for the rooms with hot tub. Overall it is a very nice and clean property. Well maintained. And our experience was very nice. The location is also very nice. Close to the city and close to the beaches and park.

I liked that the hotels location was apart from the more developed section of Moonstone Beach yet easily accessible to the wooden boardwalk that runs along its length. A nice place to walk … The back of hotel borders a natural wooded area but the front is nearer to the access street

We were disappointed. This was a spontaneous romantic getaway that was bad only due to the hotel unfortunately. 1.WiFi was suboptimal. My wife had to do some work over the internet and it was very slow. I ended up using my hotspot so she could work. It was just computer charting so we weren’t sure why it was so slow. When I asked a staff member about it she said they upgraded it recently it used to be worse. 2. We were supposed to be on second floor but when we mentioned my wife had a service dog we were told we could only be on the first floor. This seemed questionable at best and illegal at worst. 3. The original room we were given was 110 super close to the lobby. We paid for a “superior room”($360) for one night. It looked nice but was smaller than the photos. No couch. Hot tub malfunctioned and didn’t turned on and off. No hand soap in room, no tv remote. 3. Room 112 bigger and had a couch. We went to dinner around 730 staff had went home early as they said they locked Bobby at 9pm? We came back around 10pm used the bathroom only to find out toilet didn’t flush. Called number on desk it goes to morrow bay inn said not much they could do. No maintenance or anyone to come in. But “feel free to use lobby bathroom”. Really?? Next day spoke to staff, we left @10:30 no one came by to even try to fix it. We were told the manager would try to make it right. Didn’t happen. We left feeling unappreciated and regretting spending our money at this place.

We stay here regularly, and went to stay for a relaxing few days, but this time we booked they were painting and renovating and the place smelt so bad from the paint. We were then told they were only doing construction between 10 and 4, but they started at 7:30 am in the morning right above our heads while we were sleeping and of course could no longer sleep. We complained to the young girl at the front desk when we checked out and said they should let people know when they book, if they are doing construction and limit the hours if people are paying full price to stay. She just said oh ok, no offer of discount or any apology. We have not been back since. Not the best way to treat paying customers.

We had wanted to stay here for years and finally did. The hotel is nice, small and well appointed. The advertisement said it had a "bar,". It has a "self-serve" area with two wines and one choice on beer that you have to purchase a debit type card to purchase. Free breakfast was OK, everything is packaged, nothing fresh.
