Pacific Inn

2.0 star property
9.2 out of 10, Wonderful, (1285)
"Room was very clean. Aesthetics is modern and minimalist which is perfect for our one night stay. Check-in was easy. We were freezing when we arrived but the heater did its job quickly. Only downfall was I Wish I read the reviews about this place being on a busy street. Sirens and loud motorcycles throughout the night. I could hear every single car passing by and we’re not even in a room closest to the street. Walls are fairly thin, I could hear other people’s conversations through the walls...

2.5 star property

"Great location. It's just a short pleasant walk down to many restaurants, coffee shops, Trader Joe's, and a pub. There are probably more pubs/bars, but I wasnt looking for those during this trip. You have to press hard on the soap dispensers to get the soap I put. I like that they use use instead of the bar soaps which I always feel so wasteful using a few times and then disposing. The extra lock at the top of the door felt flimsy which I didn't like. Great location, pleasant staff, no...

"This house is exactly what you think you are getting - epic views, massive deck, and Big Sur charm. We celebrated a milestone birthday and the house was the perfect getaway. Be sure to enjoy the stars at night as they light up the sky unlike anywhere else in Cali.The rooms are large and well appointed. The pictures don't do it justice. The homeowner provides special flashlights at the front door so it is easy to get around in the evening, especially when going from the house to your car or the...

"Corola the property manager was amazing. The power had gone out in the area right before we got there, she was going to get us lanterns but it came back on so we called and let her know. Unfortunately the power only stayed on for 15 mins and then went back out the rest of the night. We disnt want to bother Corola to come out with the hope the power would come back on. Overall the property is very nice and bed was comfortable. Will need to visit again so we can really enjoy it more with power...
