The Franciscan Hotel

The Franciscan Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Only stayed here for one night, but after coming here we wished we stayed much longer. The rooms were wonderful in how they were set up. They seemed much larger and more spacious than a typical hotel room. Even the bathrooms were much bigger than a typical hotel. And everything felt very clean. Not sure if all rooms are set up the same but we were very happy with the actual room. The front desk staff was very good and accomidating. The breakfast in the morning was also very nice. It allows you to get up and going quickly without having to go somewhere else to eat. The beach was a pretty quick walk. It's a good locaiton. Just overall a great place to stay. If we ever come back to the west coast, we will frequent this place again."
