Give this place a pass
As a frequent traveler to Cambria and Moonstone Beach, I found this hotel not to work at the price point. Other hotels have more to offer, and the rooms are updated. One of the selling points was the ocean view and private patio, but the chairs on the patio could have been more comfortable. The jet tub, which was also a selling point of the room, had mold around all the jets, and the tub was at least three different colors, which, if you're susceptible to infections or prone to sensitive skin, would leave you ill. The room did have a fabulous fireplace, which was amazing. It is the only room point that actually lived up to the hotel's description.

It was nice slightly outdated with cracks and holes in the walls and ceiling. Only complaint would honestly be the balcony wasn’t well maintained. When paying for a partial ocean view we weren’t able to enjoy it because our friendly neighborhood spider had overtook it. Outside of that the bed was cozy room was nice yet slightly outdated. Tv was good for the little we used it and water pressure was great. Overall 4/5 stars and would stay here again and either get a full ocean view or no view.

Ocean Front. Restaurants nearby. Needs updating but clean. Found roach under stained window seat cushion. Windows needed cleaning-mold. I know the mold is common on window sills in this area but it should be addressed. Employees always chatting or on phone and not working. Thats why check in at 4 PM

I loved the communication that I received from the property prior to my visit. I was offered the chance to upgrade my room. My room met all of my expectations. Amenities were very nice and loved that we had a fireplace. Location is great and walkable to beach.

Low Water Temp
I stayed here for three nights. The hotel has a few years on it but it was in really good condition. Very clean. I loved the gas fireplace. My only gripe was that the bath/shower water heat was set too low. I love a bath on a cold night but the faucet temp was warm at best and went to lukewarm pretty quick. That is a big thing to me and would actually cause me to hesitate to stay here again.

..
Two negative issues to address first: 1. the insulation in the ceiling was very poor and the people staying there very loud. They moved around at all hours, it was very annoying. 2. The person in reception was rather short with John; he inquired about our purchase of two of the ceramic mugs. She responded that she didn't know and would have to ask her manager but made no effort to do so and did not say she wohld get back to him He finally told her never mind. This was Friday the 15th of November in the AM. She was talking to another women in what seemed a non business conversation. We checked in at 4PM on Wed and the women in the reception area was very cordial and helpful(not the same person described above) The room was great. Loved the fireplace and the nice robes The bathroom was roomy and the shower was great. Great views from the little patio. Loved the tasting room for theTooth and Nail winery The young man working there was very knowledgeable and friendly. We really enjoyed our spemt there.

Easy check in with a link texted to me for my info. Bathrooms could use some updating but the room was nice and spacious. Loved the fireplace during the gloomy weather. A little noisy if you are on the first floor and people are above you.

Beautiful view of the Pacific Ocean. Large room. Bath room was a little small, but doable. Great service. Fire place was not working, staff quickly moved us to another room just like the one we were in.
