Price is a tad high, but I really liked the room. You could have fit a third double bed in the room! Parking lot is a bit small. The breakfast was even smaller. But since the room had a stove in it you can make up for they do not provide. We watched the sunset over the ocean from our... More

This place is permeated with the smell of yesterday's curry dinner. It is a dirty dump. I would NEVER go barefoot in this room! The bed was uncomfortable with springs which poked all night, the wall paper torn, the light switch in the bathroom needs to be re-installed as one of the switches was not flush with the plate, the...

I'm surprised at some of the clean remarks about this hotel because that is not what I found. Maybe it is dependent on the room or whom cleaned the room. Definitely do not stay here if it's a prolong stay or traveling with kids. We needed to obtain a government rate and this is the only place providing that rate,... More

The San Francisco Bay Area was experiencing a heavy travelers week. City hotels were booked full and charging there "high" rates. Having lived in the bay area for my entire life, abeit the past 6 years, I drove to the coast city of Pacifica (8-miles south). My GPS showed "Americ'a Best Value Inn". I stopped, and found the price affordable.... More

The room I stayed in had mold around the windows--a lot of it. The heater didn't work. The carpet was badly stained. The tub/shower had nothing to prevent slipping, or to hold on to if you lost your balance. The bathroom was generally discusting. The attendant seemed to pretent that he didn't understand English. The worst place I've ever stayed,... More

Forget the big sign on the front of the building-it's never applicable! Had to telepone the place to even raise a live person! Ridiculous!

Thank you for your comments. We do have handicapped facilities in our hotel. In October we went through a renovation of our rooms and all of the rooms were painted, new carpet, furniture and new Serta beds were installed. We hope you will come back and give us another opportunity to be of service to you. More
