5.8/10
I had a decent stay at this hotel. The location was good, but there was nothing nearby to walk to, and it was a bit far from Pismo Beach. While the room was nice, it was quite hot without air conditioning. The pool was small, and although there was a restaurant, it felt pricey compared to other options nearby. Additionally, the fire pits were not as accessible as I had hoped, which was a letdown.
Rooms

The room was nice but very hot without air conditioning, and we had trouble securing the sliding glass door.

Location

The hotel was situated in a good spot on the bluffs above the beach, but it was quite isolated with limited walking options nearby.
Dining

The restaurant had a nice menu but prices felt quite high for what was offered.
Facilities

The small pool was a bit of a disappointment, and the fire pits were not in the best locations for enjoying the view.
