The bed was very comfortable and I loved the fireplace. Right across the street from the ocean and a nice little boardwalk. The main restaurant in town only takes cash. The bathroom could use some updating. Definitely would stay here again

Nice location, clean, good breakfast, dog friendly and courteous and efficient staff.
Cambria is one of my favorite spots along the CA coast. Nice hotel, well located along the beach walkway. Many amenities within walking distance or a short drive into Cambria.
Loved the wood tile floors! Much better than carpet when traveling with pets. The manager Sam was awesome. Very much appreciated the staff’s hospitality.
Very big rooms, older building but looks remodeled very nice fireplace great view and pleasant staff would definitely stay here again. Loved the property
