The property was nice! I enjoyed my stay. The only thing I didn’t enjoy was the shower soap dispenser not working when I took a shower but everything I enjoyed!

The new renovations were a bonus - and a very comfortable bed. Rude guests making noise with their children and a party truck at 11pm ruined the calm and quiet accommodations - but this wasn't the fault of the hotel. The staff was very friendly and helpful upon check in. I would encourage travelers to consider the Dune Surfer Inn if they are in the area.

The hallway light at night made the room too lit. The curtains weren’t effective. This was the only complaint. Everything else was great.

Kayla the front desk agent was so friendly and accommodating. I did a late check in and she made sure my service animal and I had everything we needed at such a late hour. Thank you for the great service and hospitality, Kayla! Would recommend this humble gem 10/10!

The hotel is 5-10 min walk to the Oceano beach, so if you want to be near Sand dunes or just the beach, it’s a good place. Our room faced highway 1 , so we can definitely hear all the cars , but we stayed during the week so it wasn’t that bad . The only two things I would say can be better is the bathroom fan (very loud), and the blankets were super thin. There should be extra blankets because the room is cold , and while there is a heater it makes the room too stuffy. I think adding warm blankets or improving thermo isolation will help. The room is very clean and has fridge and microwave , shower water hot. Staff is very nice!

Definitely a diamond in the rough. Came to hit the dunes and enjoy the beach so we only really slept in the room. The staff was courteous, the room was clean, and we got what we expected. Big thanks for accommodating a downstairs room!
