My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The room, although spacious and featuring a super comfortable king bed, had some drawbacks like having only blinds on the windows, making it a bit challenging to find the right balance between light and privacy. The room also had a peculiar scent of soy sauce, and the blinds were a bit sticky, which was a bit inconvenient. However, it was still a cozy and comfortable space for a three-day weekend getaway.

My stay was a mixture of positives and negatives. The hotel's location right across the street from the promenade along Moonstone Beach is fantastic, making it a perfect stopover on a Pacific Coast Highway trip. The rooms, although with a romantic fireplace, needed a furniture upgrade and some cleaning. The service was friendly and addressed our room issues promptly, showcasing efficiency. The dining experience, with an ocean view, was slightly disorganized but still enjoyable. Overall, the location and service were highlights, despite room cleanliness and dining service needing improvement.
