Lori, the inn keeper, made us feel welcome and was very nice. We selected this B & B based on TripAdvisor reviews and were not disappointed. As others have written, she made my wife and I feel like family. We stayed in the Donegal room because it was one of the rooms with a wood burning fireplace. The room was clean and neat. The bathroom was also clean and neat but had some outdated decor that some (not us) may find bothersome because it was very out of place with comfy 'old English home' decor. One thing to note about the bed..IT REALLY, REALLY SQEAKS !! Honeymooners beware ! Breakfast was very tasty and portions were more than enough. Afernoon wine and cheese was great as were the evening cookies and milk. Another thing to consider is that by the time one factors the cost of breakfast for 2 and the other snacks, this is a real value at $175 USD. We were about 2 miles from downtown Cambria (walkable) and only 6 miles from Hearst Castle. We went another 6 miles north of the castle to see the elephant seals that come ashore during December and January to give bearth and mate. I give J Patrick House a 8-9 out of 10.
