Creekside Inn, Cambria

We had a Shih Tzu with us and they did not charge for him. The room was clean; beds okay and we had a small balcony in the rear overlooking the creek. We were able to walk downtown with our dog and even then their were several places we could eat outside with our pet under our table. Love the area; only disapointed that we could not find anywhere to kennel our animal for several hours to visit the Castle. We are planning to visit again next spring and will stay here again.

We look at these reviews with a bit of skepticism. The things some people complain about seems like they expect 5star treatment everywhere they go. I travel for business and regularly stay in 2,3,4 and 5 star places and so I know what to expect and how to differentiate. We chose this inn among other choices because the cost was right, the location was right, and it seemed a nice place from the online pictures. We arrived late, the innkeepers had arranged to leave a key for us, which was very nice. From the outside, the place looks very quaint and cared for. The room was clean and didn't smell funny. The paint, carpet, linens and bathroom were not brand new but they were not tacky or threadbare, they were clean and thats what matters. The beds were hard, but we like that so that was not an issue. Internet worked with no issue, nice to have it. I stayed with my wife, 2 kids and our small dog (they don't charge for pets which is a real plus) and nobody had any complaints. For a road trip or a few day stay to see surrounding sites, this is a perfectly fine place to stay. If you are someone who expects 5 star treatment no matter where you stay and if you are intolerant of the things that happen in the world, many of which are outside the control of innkeepers, then I say you ought not leave home nor write reviews. We would stay here again, and probably will.

Easy to reserve and coordinate a very late arrival as well as pet needs - owners are very friendly, outgoing and gracious. Accommodations were warm, clean, comfortable and a very good value. Location was terrific - easy access shortly off the highway while still convenient to walk into town in the morning and explore shops, galleries and restaurants. Highly recommend and would definitely stay there again. Thanks!

Creekside Inn is a simple, clean hotel with all the basic functions: nothing fancy. We paid $89/night plus tax, a bit too much comparing $39/night during the weekdays.

Very good location. Heated pool, free broadband, close to stanford and on el camino real,.
