William, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

the location and cleanliness of the place is great. The hotel is pet friendly, but they only accept a handful of pets , so make sure to let them know that you are bringing a pet right after you book the room.

James, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

I liked that it was within walking distance of the shops and restaurants. We did pay for an ocean view room, you had to go out on the patio to see a partial bay view. You couldn’t see the ocean from our room.

The manager working on duty named Brian was absolutely wonderful. Helped us also communicate with another hotel that we had left. He helped get them to refund our payment for the night we left because it was a horrible hotel
Rebecca, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Rooms were clean and spacious. Beds were very comfortable and close to morro bay shops. Continental breakfast was decent but the older lady running the breakfast was rude and impatient. She has bad mannerism and was in a sour mood.

It is a couple of blocks from the shopping and dining area. The room was spacious and quiet. The wifi in our room did not work well, although it was better in the lobby. The breakfast was very basic.
