I loved the location of the hotel, being right across Moonstone Beach and close to charming Cambria town. The room had no balcony or terrace, which was a bit of a letdown, especially when restaurant noise disturbed the evening peace. The upgrade for a balcony or terrace came at an extra cost, making it less appealing in terms of value for money.

Rooms

7.0

The room was lacking a balcony or terrace and was prone to restaurant noise in the evening.

Service

6.0

The service was a mix of pleasant and off-putting encounters. While some staff members were helpful, there were instances of yelling instructions, which wasn't the most professional approach.

Location

8.0

The hotel's location was excellent, right across from Moonstone Beach and near the Sea Chest restaurant, a delightful spot for dining. However, the absence of outside seating facing the sea for some rooms was a missed opportunity.

Dining

5.0

The dining experience was mediocre, with a standard continental breakfast that lacked variety. The offering felt rather limited for the cost of the stay.

Facilities

6.0

The hotel lacked certain additional features that would have enhanced the overall guest experience, such as outside seating facing the sea and a quieter room atmosphere in the evenings. These elements could have been more thoughtfully integrated into the guest experience to improve value for money.

I had an incredible stay at this hotel. The room had a fantastic ocean view with the sound of crashing waves when I opened the window. Booking early is a great idea to secure a room with a full sea view. Being right across from the sea was simply amazing.
