設施老舊,離開101太遠,需要40分鐘才能到達,不能沿海岸線繼續南下,衹能説可以不被打擾,回到塵世有點兒難。

My night at Shelter Cove We stayed in the jacuzzi room with balcony. Room was nice and clean, balcony view was great, and the Jacuzzi tub in the room was perfect for warming up after being in the cold. The place needs a little maintenance on the exterior, our bathroom sink was old and outdated with cracks in it. It didn’t have a drain cover so you could see down the drain at the mold build up in the pipe, which was a little gross for me. The biggest issue was the drive to the place. It’s 22 miles off Hwy 1, but the road is very slow and winding. Wasn’t able to drive very fast and it took at least an hour or more to get there and then back to the highway the next morning. There was a nice coffee shop on the floor level with some pretty good pastries.

Amazing location. Scary as hell road in and out. Room was nice. Communication with management was horrible. Shades in room we're broken and in some cases missing.

Mediocre at best Hotel is mediocre, towels and linens are extremely cheap. The upstairs rooms do have a gorgeous ocean view. Paid for a King suite with Ocean view and hot tub. After checking in room did not have a hot tub, called manger and was notified that there’s only 2 rooms have hot tubs and those two were occupied. Had to explain that we should receive a refund since we paid extra and apparently they just book rooms that don’t exist. Restaurant downstairs is the best part about the hotel.

This inn is beautiful and the oceanfront room was amazing. There aren’t many amenities and the internet was slow but the sights made up for it and after you go through that treacherous drive to get there it is nice to have a quiet place to rest. The bed was somewhat comfortable. The water pressure wasn’t great. There was one restaurant open the afternoon we arrived so there want much of a choice. The cafe attached to the inn had pretty good breakfast. I would stay there again.

The view to the ocean was world class. For 350+ per night, it would be nice for the balcony door to slide easily; maybe clean the bird poop splatters off the windows; and get improve the wifi situation so guests can use the TV and check their phones. I know this is a remote place, but the cafe downstairs has solid wifi 24/7 . We wished we had checked their password!

What a View! What a view! This hotel is not new and not perfect in terms of decor, but the price was great and the proximity to the water and the views were amazing. The cafe has really good food as well.
