Hidden Valley Inn is a charming place near Big Sur, perfect for enjoying the surrounding nature. The rooms, while comfortable, could use some lighting adjustments and offer limited views. I appreciated the thoughtful breakfast, especially the made-to-order waffles. However, the location is a bit tricky for walking to nearby tasting rooms due to the lack of sidewalks. Overall, it's a lovely stay with great hospitality and amenities, making it worth a visit.
