This hotel is one of the dirtiest places I have been in. We stayed in room 3, the carpet was disgustingly dirty, with stains of all kinds, the cloth on the chairs was soiled like they had been urinated on or something. The bed was so broke down the head of the bed was a couple of inches lower than the foot of the bed. The room looked like it had recently been painted but the bathroom looked like a kid painted it, very unprofessional. Lastly the deck over looking the ocean has glass on it, we went out in the evening to go look at the ocean and the windows were so dirty we couldn't even see the ocean right across the road. The $79 special really is $90 by the time you pay taxes, I would suggest going elsewhere. Not happy.

The new management has done a great job. The property and rooms have been cleaned up and improvements have been made to the exterior. The affordable room rates starting at $69.00 per night have not been changed for the summer. This is the best value on Moonstone Beach Drive. Go check it out.

Just returned from Cambria and stayed at the Mariner and it was the best deal we had in a long time. Front desk people Steve and Jim were fantastic. I had called other hotels that are right across from the beach and they wanted $169 for weekend nights. we paid $79 a night and had a firplace, view of ocean and jacuzzi tub.
We also had to leave a night erlier and I was not expecting to get a refund for the night but I just said we had to leave early and Iwas refunded no questions asked.
If your going to Cambria you will not find a better value

My husband and I made a reservation here in October for a December trip, but we were not told our card would be charged immediately for the full three days. Due to bad weather we had to cancel and did so in the allowed time frame. About two weeks after cancelling we noticed our credit card had not been credited. After many calls and being told to call back at certain times when the biller was there we were never able to reach anyone who could help us. Finally, we were told we would get a refund on Jan. 12 but it didn't happen. We had to file a dispute with our credit card company in order to get the refund on Jan. 17. With the exception of Maria, most of the staff we spoke to were rude. We love Cambria but will never, ever stay at the Mariners Inn!!!
