My stay at the hotel was a mixed bag. While the location is quite nice and the rooms have a cozy beach theme, I found some aspects lacking, especially regarding dining and some room features. The service was friendly, but improvements are definitely needed in some areas. Overall, it was decent but didn't quite meet my expectations.

Rooms

The room I stayed in had a charming beach decor and was reasonably clean, but the layout was quite awkward with a loft bedroom. The kitchen area was useful, but I had trouble with the fireplace as it didn't seem to work at all.
Service

I found the staff to be quite friendly and accommodating during my stay, although some aspects of service, particularly during breakfast, could use serious improvement.
Location
8.0
The location is lovely, with some restaurants nearby and a nice ambiance, but the walk from the lobby to my room in the Villas was a bit too far compared to other areas.
Dining

The breakfast this time around was disappointing. The buffet selection was unappealing, and ordering from the main menu resulted in cold food and poor service.
Facilities

The hotel has some decent amenities, but nothing really stood out as exceptional. It feels like some areas are showing signs of wear and could benefit from a refresh.

I recently stayed at this hotel and found it to be a mixed experience. While the location was fantastic, being right across from the harbor and near great dining options, my room was rather disappointing compared to the expectations set by the first visit. The staff were friendly and accommodating, but the overall experience fell short due to the room quality and breakfast value.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, as it offered a nice blend of comfort and convenience. The staff, especially Jose at the reception, went above and beyond to ensure I had everything I needed. I appreciated the spacious room, though it fell short in fully accommodating my ADA needs. The hotel's proximity to various dining options and the beach made my stay enjoyable. However, I was disappointed by the limited dining options available during my visit and the noise from events nearby.

I had a lovely stay at the Oceano Hotel; it embodies old-school charm with its rustic decor and is located just across the street from Half Moon Bay. The rooms were spacious with beautiful views, but the noise from the foghorn was quite distracting. Overall, the hotel offered a nice atmosphere for relaxation, although noise-sensitive guests might find it challenging.

The hotel has a lovely atmosphere and the rooms are clean, but I found the noise level unbearable for a good night's sleep. While the staff were accommodating, the dining experience fell short compared to past visits, particularly with a lack of attention. The value for what I experienced seems off, and the decor is in need of an update.
