10/10 Exceptional

What a wonderful place to stay! This is our first visit to California and Harbor View in Half Moon bay was the 4th place we stayed. Everything from start to finish was very pleasant. Excellent customer service, very great and beautifully decorated room, comfortable bed and pillows and decent coffee in the lobby. Despite being near the road, the location was very quiet. Also accessible to many good restaurants.

The remodel is beautiful, enjoyed the new bed and colors in the room. The wall fireplace was a nice touch! One of the few hotels that actually has a guide to scroll on the TV. Great location in between Half Moon Bay and Pacifica. This was our third time there and first time since the remodel. Will always go back.

Location was good across the street from the Pillar point harbor and in front of Hwy 1. Check-in went well with Resturant recommendation of which we selected La Costenera a Peruvian cuisine that was delicious! Walking around the area felt safe and we enjoyed the scenery. Unfortunately the neighboring noise level from rooms around us were quite high until about 10:30 pm. Room was comfortable but the beds were worn out. In addition body wash was empty. Parking was ample and felt secure.

The property is in a great location. It is clean, updated, and well maintained, although it could use new in room air conditioners. Luckily that was fixed by opening our window but did come up with a little road noise fron Hwy 1. The bedding and linens were top notch and overall, we would definitely stay again!

The hotel is newly renovated, the rooms have cute ambient led lighting details under the bed and on the ceiling, the bathrooms are new and clean. The staff were super friendly. There is a fancy coffee machine in the lobby and a few great breakfast cafes within a few minutes drive. Great place to spend a weekend!
