"Staff was very helpful, polite (giving elevator priority to guests, replacing linens, etc.). Breakfast okay, yogurt dispenser a little odd, over sweet product. Small kitchenette counter in room was useful. Lightbulbs in rooms somewhat dim if drapes are closed . Very close and walkable to Doheney State Beach"

10/10 Excellent
"Working with Wyatt was excellent. The house was roomy, comfortable, great location and very nice amenities. FYI, the driveway is very steep, and although two garage spaces were included, we opted for street parking instead. So walking up and down the driveway, even with steps, was a little bit difficult for us "older" ladies. But the views are fabulous, we had a great time, and would return if we are ever in that area again."
