“Nice oceanview rooms”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 5, 2012

From the outside the motel is'nt very attractive, but the inside is a suprise. Nice spacious and totally renovated room with a nice kingsize bed. The room and bathroom are very clean, but the towels are a bit thin. From your room you can watch the sunset!. In the room you have TV, coffee/tea making and a fridge. The walls are a bit thin so you can hear the neighbors, but luckily we had quit ones! Check-inn was quick, breakfast was very simple (better take it somewhere else). The motel is at the end off a strip with only motels/hotels but in easy distance from the few shops and restaurants. We stayed in room #124 at the 2nd floor. Because of the thin walls it's maybe better If you ask for a room at the corner!!
This motel is a very good deal for the price!

Room Tip: Ask for a room at a corner!

“Amazing Stay!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 29, 2012

This place is great, affordable, and comfortable! We had a view of the ocean, the king sized bed was really comfortable, and the room itself was spacious and very clean. They offer free wifi, except it was down the weekend we were there, but it was ok because we really didn't need it. Our room had a mini fridge, a microwave, a coffee maker, an iron with ironing board, and a large flat screen tv with basic cable. We definitely recommend this place!!

“Saved by the location”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed October 28, 2012

Stayed here with my cousin on our way to the Hearst castle last March 2011. The place has a nice location. We were on the 2nd floor so coming out from our room, we're greated by the view of the sea. Good place for the price.

“Late evening last room available in area. Not bad.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed October 19, 2012 via mobile

Less than $80.00 got us a surprisingly comfortable king size bed after a long drive from Carmel. Spent about 10 hours there but slept well. Typical tired old cheap hotel room with a bed spread you wouldn't want to shine a black light on so once we tossed it aside we were surprised to find a comfortable bed. The rest was forgettable but it did its job of providing us a good nights sleep.

“Amazing value for a great room”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 15, 2012

Stayed here on a trip up the coast and stopped here to see Hearst Castle (5 minutes away). Not much to do in the area but enjoy each others company. Really nice, clean, big room. Free parking, free wifi, free breakfast and great free view of the ocean, and sleeping to the sound of the surf. Walked down to the beach and had a great time. People complain about the free breakfast of cereal, pastries and juice but it was the same as the buffet at our next 2 hotels, one was 175$ a night and the other was 400$ a night. Sea Breeze was a real bargain, Great staff and they let us check in early. We'll be back, soon I hope.
