Our room was clean and quiet but had an odor of mildew. That’s possibly because the hotel is right on the ocean but still unpleasant. The bed was good just a little saggy. The breakfast was very good. Our last morning, we had to leave very early before breakfast opened. We asked about their offered “to go breakfast” but two of the office staff didn’t seem to understand what we were talking about. We ended up just leaving without any breakfast rather than trying to get some food.

It was surprising to find out that this Best WEstern had been modernized to perfection. We only had a one night stay, heading back home the next morning. The hotel was clean, comfortable, and even offered breakfast. Bonus there was no fee to park the car. Would definitely come back and book this trip for our whole vacation.

Garage very tight to park in

Room was very nice. They allowed us to stay a couple hours after check out to bypass the rainy weather. Room was big and roomy. It wasn’t a huge deterrent since we were there for just one night after a concert but the bedding isn’t the best but for one night it was fine. Very quiet and staff is extremely friendly and accommodating. We will be back. Free parking. Nice outside space for a short trip and the ocean is right across the street.

Newly renovated, the hotel was comfortable and very clean. Always appreciate a complementary breakfast, this one was bit simple but with good variety including hot and cold food options. Coffee could've been a bit better.

Staff was great. Mattress was old and should have been tossed long ago. It literally had sink spots and squeaked with every move. It was so old it buckled on the side as shown below. Absolutely horrible. Very poor for hotel standards.
1.0
The hotel is not what it used to be. Very outdated and dirty. One of the rooms had black mold in it. It’s a shame, it used to be a nice little place,

I was really impressed with this hotel. It was immaculately clean. I had a great room. It was very large with vaulted ceilings. Room 303.
6.0
Although we didn't request one, we got an "accessible room." The walk-in shower did not have proper draining, and the water pooled in the middle of the bathroom instead of going down the drain. There were also no shelves in the shower to put your soap or shampoo. The room had no carpeting (tile floor?), and it was quite cold during January. Great access to beach, and the continental breakfast was fairly nice. Overall, not bad for a one-night stay, but I wouldn't stay there for very long.

Staff was great! And we had one of the best hotel breakfasts ever!
2.0
The room was updated asthetically and looked nice, had a really nice mirror with LED lighting, gorgeous sunset/ocean views, nice outdoor areas. Toilet was not secure to the floor and rocked when in use, floor was very dirty, not visibly, but if I did not wear flip flops or socks my feet were filthy. No insulation for noise reduction from upstairs room, or water usage. Very loud when other unit(s) using the water which made it hard to sleep sometimes.

The staff was very kind, and the property was very clean.

This is a nice place to stay. The beds were extremely comfortable. The ocean view was lovely. I had a nice run to the beach from the hotel. Very easy to access. The neighbors above is were noisy at all hours. The internet was intermittent too which is frustrating. I’m not in love with the parking situation there. If you have a taller vehicle (like us) pray you get a space near the entrance!

needed some repairs to the property in general
8.0
My sisters and I enjoyed our stay here. The beach is across the road. The view from the deck is nice and traffic calms after 7 pm. The property is dated and the bathroom needs some updating. That's why I gave it a 4. The staff is so helpful and perfectly suited for their jobs. Overall, it served our needs well. Jaw dropping sunsets here!!!

Hotel staff was very helpful and responsive. The room was clean and large! The area is quiet- we had the king ocean view so right on the street but no street noise to disturb our sleep. Thanks for a nice stay!
2.0
The room was basic but as expected. Very nice view of the ocean and sunset, but the PCH and the Pacific Surfliner train are right outside the window as well. In the daytime there is a lot of traffic noise, but it wasn't bad at night. A few trains went by - no horn noise at least.
The people at the front desk were very pleasant and accommodating. The bathroom was the tiniest I have ever seen. Smaller than a stall of a public restroom, and more like a restroom on an airplane.
1.0
first room 304 had a bad smell , they change me to another room but they charge more , insect coming out off the drain inside shower tub, paint peeling off the wall and ceiling, bathroom door not easy to close , wholes inside the bathroom, mattress was squeaking when you turn around on the bed, could not sleep all night.
2.0
our TV didn’t work. they spent about an hour and a half in our room, wasted time for us. would’ve thought we’d get a discount or something for the inconvenience- nothing. sink also didn’t drain properly- or at all. nice staff, but expected more out of facilities as well as something to make up for the inconvenience.

I liked the room but my two trucks got things stolen from both.
3.0
The staff was so nice, but the property itself was in terrible disarray and unsafe conditions such as uneven steps and tiling and paint completely chipped and wearing off on beams that were visible. Caution tape on stairs and in general disrepair. Really needs upkeep and repair. Was somewhat unsafe for my children.

It was a great stay, felt as though the views were beautiful. I didn’t get a chance to go to the beach but it’d have been beautiful I’m sure! Showers take little bit of a time to start warming, other than that it was good
1.0
Definitely disappointed in a few specific things. The room had a very strong mildew odor which made my head and throat hurt. Walking around in socks or bare feet resulted in the bottoms of our feet/socks becoming really dirty, showing that the floor really wasn’t clean. The mattress was ok but saggy and squeaky. And the thermostat was pretty difficult to use. On the positive side, the price was good during the off season, staff was very helpful and kind and the breakfast was pretty good. We were definitely satisfied with those items but we won’t be staying there again.

We had an amazing stay. The room was immaculately clean. Looked like it was just redone with fresh everything. The staff went out of their way to be friendly and even upgraded our room to an ocean view at no cost to us. The included breakfast was adequate like most hotel breakfast items I’ve seen at previous breakfast included hotels. We were able to cross over a bridge and be right on the beach within minutes. Free parking and easy access to PCH highway. Overall was great and I’d so stay here again when visiting. A+ for friendly staff. 👍😊

Room was spacious enough with high ceiling & a partial view. But the molding of the door itself was coming off. Staff super helpful. Breakfast ok. No phone in the room. The containers for the shampoo, conditioner & shower gel are to small & very difficult for anything to be squeezed out! Had to go a few steps to have something to eat, which was convenient enough.

Loved our stay right across from the ocean. Staff was fantastic. Breakfast was real good and the waffles were delicious ! No hot water though for shower and touch down on elevator was a little rough but we braced ourselves. We love trains so enjoyed it everytime one passed. Yes, I would stay here again.
5.0
Front Desk - Checkin and Check Out - Great Customer Experience.! Wish I could remember her name.
5.0
They are under a little renovation, nothing loud or dirty just bringing up to date and the rooms are nice. Here again the breakfast makes the deal. Although not as extensive as most Best Westerns it is great with everything you could ask for. So you can deduct $15 from your room cost since the breakfast is well worth the $15. Also easy access to the beach across the street.
5.0
This is a great location on Capo Beach! The team is great and Napoleon is the absolute best host on point on all points. There is a nice sunset patio available to all which is perfect. Once you park, you can walk to the beach and restaurants. The rooms are nicely appointed, spacious and clean.
