This place has everything... great location, beautiful rooms, but holy cow the walls are paper thin and anyone around, below or above you sound like elephants in heat. I have never stayed in a place with so little sound proofing before.

I can't recall staying in a weirder hotel than this. No one works here after 10pm, you literally can't check in after that. Our room looked like a ballroom with a wall to cut it in half with furniture added from a commercial supplier but also some from Wayfair. The beds were fine. The water wasn't very hot. The walls are clearly hollow, and the baby crying next door was not a good time. I guess it's close to the beach but we didn't get in with enough daylight to find out. Any lodging should make insulation in the walls a top priority. We were happy to leave.

Cute little place right off highway 1. The view from our patio room was perfect.

The Inn is just a minute drive from the beach. Many of the rooms are able to see the ocean and the view is gorgeous. The Inn has a homey feel and the rooms look brand new. They are expansive, with hardwood floors, clean and large beds/sheets and a clean bathroom with all of the expected amenities. The rooms have their own ice machines, which is nice in theory, however it makes noise all night and woke me up a few times. The front desk is vacated at 10pm and you'll have to let yourself in and out of the building with your keycard. There is also a mandatory quiet hours at night so you won't have loud neighbors. They offer breakfast in the mornings as well. Would highly recommend here if you are staying in the area.

Super cute Inn about a 30-ish min drive from SF and 5-10 mins from Half Moon Bay. I stayed in the Oceanview Suite, it was spacious and clean and I loved the balcony set up…also the bed was very comfortable. Worth noting that the view of the ocean is across the highway and beyond the trees. It’s right next to a gas station and it’s not a big issue except for my room had the worst blinds the white hanging kind (with one missing) and it let in all of the bright light from the gas station. I put up an extra blanket over the window to help a bit as the bed is in direct view. It’s odd because the sliding glass door/window has actual curtains for privacy & darkness and if they just put up actual curtains over the rest of the windows it would solve the problem. Anyway, it’s walking distance to Montara beach which was wonderful. The continental breakfast is passing and I wish they had fresh fruit, but nothing very substantial and you’re probably better off going out for brunch. I think I would stay again, the location makes up for any shortcomings.

I've lived up the street from this inn for over 27 years, and never thought much of it until it changed hands and underwent a magnificent transformation. I booked a relative in a Queen room for one night and was stunned when I saw it--beautifully designed and spotlessly fresh; thoroughly inviting. The staff was welcoming, cheerful and attentive--the kind of people you want at the front desk. I cannot fathom why this is classed a 2-star motel. Maybe once, but under new ownership it's a solid 5. I'll be hosting other family members in the future and will look no further that Ocean View Inn. Thank you!

The hotel was a very nice getaway for the weekend with the partner, we had the top room facing the ocean, the best room plus there's a nice little sandwich shop right across the street.

Loved staying here. The top-floor room was incredibly spacious, and the bed was very comfortable. Great location being so close to the beach. Staff was excellent. I'm happy we found this place and would stay again, every time!

I loved it here ! The place overall was small for a hotel, but the rooms are large! It also made the experience feel intimate and peaceful. Its very clean, & has nice staff. I was able to upgrade my room to a room with a balcony. They have enough parking and they are right next to a gas station/ liquor store and a delicious sandwich shop and 4 minutes away from a delicious breakfast spot called "Pilot Light". The beach is also right across the street and you can have a bonfire there. They also have good breakfast apparently but we over slept and missed it.Cons: my only con is the view wasn't what I expected. I thought we would be right on the beach and have the ocean view outside of our balcony/ porch but the view is the parking lot and beach is across the st. Also the porch is shared. So you have to be mindful of your neighbors next door to you and above you unless you picked the room at the top floor, but overall I enjoyed my stay.

This is a small Inn but very nice. The room was very big with a in room ice maker, refrigerator, kuerig with coffee and tea, comfy chairs, a table with chairs, a fancy chandelier and a huge nice shower. Also every morning they have a nice continental breakfast with lots of choices. I definitely recommend this place!

We initially were looking for a place for a night while we decide what we wanted to see & do on our vacation. The moment we walked into the room, we fell in love! The next morning we decided to stay another night since it was convenient to the places we were visiting. The front desk offered us a room on the second floor for the same rate as the first floor with a much better view and more space! We stayed a third day!Superb hospitality and location. We WILL stay here when we are in the area again.

We picked a King suite with ocean view. There is a wonderful balcony/deck outside the room that allows you to relax, and take in the beautiful sunsets over the ocean. The staff was incredibly friendly and the room was top notch. Additional perk: there are plenty of great restaurants within 3-4 miles down Cabrillo Highway, making this an ideal location to be "away from the crowds", yet close enough to fine dining. There's also this little coffee place just 100 feet away from the Inn that also has friendly staff, solid coffee choices - and their pastries are delish! All in all, we can't wait to go back.
