A quiet and comfortable room under a humble facade. It was within walking distance to many restaurants, and the grounds were kept up nicely. The front desk seemed friendly, and check in was easy. The rate was a bit high for the place, because we stayed the week after Christmas, but we were happy with the room. More

We discovered this motel from a groupon special and found it to our likening, nice but small room. Location was within walking distance to downtown and was quiet. We never heard the people in the room next to us. Very frendly desk clerk. We would stay again. More

We went to the Palms because I had a great coupon, I was pleased with what we got for what we paid, but wouldn't have been happy if I paid full price. The first thing that crossed my mind when we arrived was that the person who did their website did a GREAT job. The grounds and room were a... More

We stayed here for one night only in September 2011. The room was clean and very basic. It was perfectly acceptable for the money. The bathroom was a little worse, the cupboard has been water damaged, but the shower was good. My biggest disappointment, after reading other reviews, was that the fire pit was not lit. I was looking forward... More

The hotel is decent for the money and they've done a nice job rehabbing the 1950s style motor inn. The people at the front desk were so friendly and the location is great. There are a few things that I wish I would have known: 1. There wasn't a bolt on the exterior door to the room, not even a... More

Stayed here one night recently in a 'patio' room after reading the good reviews or TripAdvisor and yelp. What a let down.... we were SO glad it was only one night. The positives are... they completely re-did the exterior and landscaping of the place and it looks great. I can appreciate taking an old run down motor lodge and giving... More

Dear Guests 1) We haven't stopped with just fixing up the exterior of our property. We are small business owners who took over a dilapidated Motel 3 years ago in one of the worst recessions in history. If we were a big bank we would have transformed it over night but it takes time hard work and money. Because of... More

Ok all joking aside, this is the best place to come for a relaxing time. No being pretentious or trying to pretend that this is the cutest B&B around, this place just does it for me. They are wonderful and I never have drama or attitude here. I'll be back every month! More

Wonderful motel on Main St. and 5 minute drive to the beach. 70's style building with homey decorations. We really enjoyed our stay here. Plus they have free bikes to pedal around Cambria! Bike's are first come first serve but there were always some available during our stay and the place was packed. Pets welcome here and the price is... More
