San Clemente Inn

San Clemente Inn

10/10 Excellent
"Had a wonderful stay! Staff were friendly and helpful, food at hotel restaurant was excellent we ate there two days in a row. We loved it overall and would definitely stay again. That being said the rooms are alittle worn, tea kettle was rusty and one of the cupboard handles was broken, the commonly used outlets were also very worn to the point things didn't stay plugged in. The bedding and towels were soft and comfortable. Definitely comfortable with our three kids we had a blast!"
