Very dirty carpet...run down. There were a lot of "Awards" hanging in the lobby, but they were all at least a few years old. Property probably sold to new owners who won't re-invest back into the property (happens a lot- I am a hospitality exec and seeing a lot of these independent properties being purchased by foreign family's who just want to squeeze the profit out of them).

No Soap. WTH

I noticed this motel didn't offer soaps/shampoos. At $250 a night, you'd think a tube of shampoo and one little bar of of soap wouldn't put Surf Motel in financial dire straights.

I stayed for 3 nights July 9-12. The Reception staff & the manager were personable, efficient & helpful. Cara was especially helpful. My room had both a small refrigerator and a microwave plus coffee pot. The room was clean & comfortable for myself & my dogs. My dogs are large & crate trained so did not roam about the room. The fenced dog yard was appropriate & well maintained. Several guests did not clean up after their dogs which was a nuisance a few minutes every day, but not the fault of the Motel crew. The motel is right on a busy road so a bit noisy, but not bad. The motel is only 6 minutes by car from a really nice dog beach. And, it is centrally located for restaurants, grocers, shopping and gas stations. I was delighted to discover Hwy 20 Feed (10 minutes by car) has a self-service dog wash station available 24/7. Easy to rinse the dogs off after each trip to the beach. I will definitely stay here again.

Centrally loates

We enjoyed this location because it was centrally located newr the beaches, restaurants, shopping/ grocery store, allowed pets, had a dog run, and had a reasonable pet fee. The breakfast was basic with very limited selection. The staff were friendly and helpful.

This was a very cute hotel and we enjoyed our stay. The location was great convenient. The only disappointing factor was we were needing to use the laundry facilities and it was not in working order and this was not described on the amenities. Other than that great place to stay.

Great Pet Stay

This is a great pet friendly place to stay along the Northern California coast. Our only issue was lack of cell phone signal and spotty Wi-Fi.

The hotel and room was a bit dated but it was nice, clean, and a good value. The bed was comfortable. The breakfast was a nice touch. It wasn't elaborate but it had a nice selection (cereal, oatmeal, fruit, toast, pastries, coffee, chocolate, and juice). We would definitely stay there again.
