I arrived early and the receptionist allowed early registration so that I could park on the property so I could go on a long bike ride. Also room was available well before the 4:00 p.m. check-in time.

My stay here was great ! Got there after check in time but they sent me a txt with all my information. I got the 2 bedroom cottage . It was outdated but worth it for the location and price . Parks were very close , about ten mins to point lobos . The kitchen however had no knives. Would highly recommend and will be staying here again .

Location is quiet and property upkeep is okay. WiFi internet was terrible. We struggled through out our stay with the phone (hardly any cellular connection) as well as internet connectivity.
