Sands By The Sea

Simply comfortable

Pros: A simple motel with comfortable beds. Location was perfect for a visit to the Hearst castle. Very convenient. The gentleman at the front desk we arrived the evening prior was very friendly and helpful.

Cons: Parking situation was poor. There aren't enough spaces for the hotel guests. Also the complementary breakfast voucher is a waste of time. The restaurant that is associated with the hotel that excepts the breakfast voucher has the worst service I've seen in a long time. Don't even waste your time getting the complementary breakfast and less you'd like to sit around for a while and get a poor quality danish and cold coffee while you're waiting for your milk to arrive.

It was alright.

Pros: Very close and convenient to the Hearst Castle and the beach. Everything in the town is super close though.

Cons: Wasn't special in any way. Just another motel by the water, could have stayed in any random motel with th same experience.
