The room was clean, charming, and so comfortable, and the breakfast was absolutely delicious. I literally wanted to lick my plate clean! Huge thanks to Chef Tyler for such a tasty breakfast.

The guy who runs the place heard me and came over to check what was happening. I told him about my situation and he was able to move me and my cousin to a 2 bedroom room. That was very kind of him and we both are so thankful! There is a nearby trail that lets you go down to the beach and I highly recommend it! Absolutely stunning views and a nice walk. The kitchen was absolutely amazing! They had everything, stove, microwave, plates, cups, etc etc. Very clean and well kept! One thing that would've made the experience better was for the cleaning lady to clean our room. We left the sign out but our room sadly didn't get cleaned. Don't know if we put it up too late (around 10am) but other than that, amazing place! I highly recommended it!

The rooms were cute and had all the amenities that I needed. The WiFi was a bit scarce in certain areas of the property. There's a beautiful forest right there with a fun trail to walk, leading to beautiful views and nature wonders. There's several outdoor areas to sit in. Basketball court. Picnic area. Fire pit. Mini Library inside of the office. I would definitely stay here again. Peaceful. Clean. Safe. Restaurants nearby. Even if you don't go to the official Redwoods National Park, this is a great spot to experience GLORIOUS REDWOODS!

3 stars...... 2.5 isn't an option…read more Overall experience: It ended up being an acceptable time here. There are positives and some negatives that I will explain. Main concerns: * Overpriced for overall stay / experience * Unpleasant, extremely outdated decor; hard to ignore Positives: * Beautiful ocean view * Nice garden * Close to trailheads * Communal fridge filled with cold drinks; breakfast (I know it's a B&B but for this price, in-room coffee would've been nice.) * Very clean rooms * Hosts were kind, pleasant, informative Negatives: * Decor: The first impression was alarming at best. Online photos do leave you with the impression that the decor is dated but it is overwhelming to actually see once there. I had to walk back to the car and process whether I could actually stay here. After looking up availability of neighboring lodging and seeing no options (and considering the loss of money already spent here...), we decided to go inside. Instead of walking in the door, you have to use the old, outdated intercom where you're asked if you have a reservation. After being let in, we were still experiencing a lot of feelings ("creepy" is the word we kept repeating to each other and "Grandma's estate sale".). While the host was polite and informative, the environment / decor was so outdated, it was hard to get past or ignore. I spent half the day working to force myself to not feel uncomfortable here; I should feel good about the stay - not spend considerable vacation time talking myself into not feeling grossed out by it. * Cost of stay: Considering this was the most expensive option in the area, I expected more / better. Besides the overall decor, our bath towels had bleach stains on them. And be sure to bring your own bath supplies. The ones provided that are boasted about on the website.....looks like they bought Dollar store products, stuck old-fashioned-looking labels on and have refilled over and over. I did not feel comfortable using them at all. Summary: * Nice hosts. Great view. That's it. * Would I stay again or recommend to others: Hard no. You think it's obvious to want an ocean view but I'd easily pass on the view for a more comfortable place to stay. We actually left a day early. Could be good if recommendations here and in other reviews are taken and implemented. Relying solely on "the view" isn't cutting it.

I personally worked out every morning (we stayed 3 nights) in their beautiful backyard overlooking the Pacific ocean. The air was so clean and refreshing. I loved every minute of my stay at this Inn. We will certainly be back sometimes soon.

Upon arrival we were greeted by our innkeeper for the night and a snack plate that included cheese, crackers, dried fruit, nuts, and salmon was ready for us to take up to our room. This snack plate is prepared everyday. The room was very comfortable and we loved the attention to detail. We stayed in the Egret room and we had plenty of space. The bed was comfortable and could slightly hear the sea lions from our room. No t.v. in the room and it was nice to connect with nature and rest. There was an indoor heater in the closet that we turned on to heat up the room and turned off when we slept. The blankets kept us warm at night. One night after staying out at the fire pit to hang out with other guests, we got back to our room to shower and we didn't have hot water. One of the innkeeper's told us sometimes it happens when too many people are showering at once. Not a deal breaker, although I want to share because this is something that I'd want to know. Back to good stuff...their breakfast is delicious every morning. It tastes like it is made with love. There is a trail down to the beach and a fire pit where they have all the ingredients necessary to make smores. The view is spectacular here. Truly one of a kind. We loved our experience here and look forward to coming back.

We stayed in the small family cottage and loved that we had our own kitchen and separate rooms for our children. It felt like an Air BnB, but at a way better price and with the amenities of a hotel. Ocean view and sound of sea lions is just incredible! Great sunset view and loved sleeping with windows open to hear the sea lions and the waves. A few "even better ifs" - I am never a fan of the Keurig coffee maker and good coffee on vacation is one of my very favorite things. A real coffee maker in the kitchen would be an amazing upgrade! If we come again, I might even just bring my own coffee maker. I loved the breakfast delivery! It was such a fun perk and my kids truly enjoyed it. Some sort of protein would have taken it to the next level - hard boiled eggs? Yogurt? All in all, would definitely go back! Trinidad is just lovely and Humboldt County is my favorite in CA!

This time the water situation was terrible, and things were really run down. The water wouldn't fill the toilet, and all water in the rooms was brown. I say rooms, because the manager moved us out of one room that we suspect was actually being lived in by someone, and put us in what he called, "a better room." We couldn't shower, we couldn't make coffee in the provided coffee pot. The bed was pretty comfortable. There is a great, safe yard for dogs to wander around in, and that's one of the reasons we liked this place. In the past the place was mowed and well-taken-care-of, but this time the grass was taller than my ankles, and I wondered if they just couldn't afford the upkeep. I don't know what's happening at the Sea Cliff Motel, but I hope for their sake they can get it together and do the upgrades they need to do. Hard to do I imagine, with so few rooms and not charging much. I think they're in between a rock and a hard place. Three stars is generous... Here's hoping.

The outside space was really well-designed, which isn't surprising considering the owners have a landscaping business. It had a nice patio with outdoor furniture and of course the hot tub!

We brought our two small dogs and it was great to be able to leave the door open and let them roam inside and outside. There wasn't a fenced yard, but it was secluded enough for us to have them off-leash. The house had everything we needed for cooking and there was a tv with cable.
