Xin An, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great stay.
Staff were very friendly and helpful. Room was clean and comfortable. The bathroom sink and tub were a little worn out, but everything worked fine. Had a great ocean view. Great location. Close to numerous beaches, shopping, restaurants, and Hearst Castle.

Upgrade would make this a great hotel
The people were really kind and the food at the restaurant was really good. However, the hotel is older and did not feel very clean. Although it may have been clean it felt dirty. Hopefully, they do an upgrade to this location because the staff is awesome there.
Louvenia, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Great location. Comfy beds. A bit noisy/thin walls and ceiling with loud upstairs neighbors walking around, but the market and liquor store and bar onsite was convenient.

Returning guests
Second time we stay here, and we'll likely be back next time we are in town. Great for the price (during winter at least, that's when we have visited), and right across the street from beach access. This time we also tried the restaurant for breakfast and really enjoyed it.

Beautiful area! Clean rooms with comfortable beds. Several restaurants very close. You can lie in bed and listen to the ocean or watch from the window. I love this area of the Central Coast!

Quick 1 day trip
This was a quick trip from so cal to Cambria, to drop off Christmas gifts to family. The lodge was decent and clean. Furniture and decor was dated, but for the location and price it is a good deal. Restaurant on property was excellent, will stay again.

The room was good just to stay and sleep. The screen door was broken and the place looked run down, the chairs in the room were old and worn out.
