This property was awesome! We loved so much about it! Super clean, very quaint, so adorable, close to Half Moon Bay Main Street with cute shops and restaurants. The staff was sooo nice and we got our own tour of the property and our room and anything else we would need. The breakfast was so wonderful. Would definitely recommend this place!!!

The cutest little B and B. Close to the beach for an evening stroll. Quiet with modern updates. Wine bar in the evening and breakfast in the morning. Couldn't have asked for a better getaway!

It is an old home turned into an inn. You feel like you stepped into a 1900’s home. It is a very inviting atmosphere. The staff and owner are very friendly and accommodating. The patio is an unexpected treat.

mixed bag priced as luxury
the good - nice little house on the outskirts of Half Moon Bay, outdoor patio with three tables with build in firerings (and several without); nice ambiance; nice living /breakfast room on the ground floor; coffee available all day and wine in the evenings. the bad - rooms are very small and had virtually no storage, one small cupboard for hanging clothes, we had to keep everything in our suitcases; no bathrooms, just a sink and shower box encroaching on the room; house borders and second floor rooms overviews a noisy parking; you have no choice for breakfast and it is almost always the same (scrambled eggs with sausage or bacon); intermittent wifi. Overall, has some nice touches, but incommensurate with the price. Would definitely be looking for a different place in HMB the next time
