We really liked this hotel it was nice. It had a pool and laundry and we had a kitchen. My only slight down fall was having an ant issue in our room but maybe that was normal with the heat

The property is well maintained. We stayed in a King suite. The room was very quiet. The one issue we encountered was the a/c. The room was a bit musty upon arrival. We put the air conditioner on. It functioned fine. The temp was set to its lowest setting but the room never got cold. The air did dry out and the smell improved. I would stay here again. It is east of the attractions and beaches with easy access to the 805.

Hidden Gem!
Spacious suite with a full kitchen made it possible to not have to continously go out to eat during my four day stay. Quiet location with friendly staff and crew.

I thought this was a wonderful place. I was surprised and delighted to find a full kitchen. I would stay again. My only criticism is the breakfast room needed room key to get in and none of the guests key worked, so someone had to open the door for each person.
