Wonderful Everything!

Everything about this hotel was wonderful, from the friendly staff, organized check in, beautiful and comfortable room, to the location. This is definitely my new favorite place to stay!

The hotel room was clean and spacious, and had a nice waterfront view of Morro Bay, although it was very foggy while we were there. Also very easy walk to dining facilities and scenic spots along the bay. Staff were very friendly and helpful as well. Highly recommend this hotel.

Very nice room. Definitely same as or better than photos. I wanted to stay again but it was still. Night clerk was super nice and helped me with a specific issue I had. Really nice place to stay. Super comfortable.
Augustus, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The Anderson Inn is my new favorite hotel. It's on a busy street, but we could barely hear the traffic and other guests. Parking was available next to the hotel, which was very convenient. Our room was incredibly spacious and clean with two balconies. The shower was really big with multiple shower heads at different heights. Plus, the staff left us the cutest swans made out of towels -- a really sweet touch. I can't wait to stay at this hotel again!

10/10 Exceptional

Nice staff in general. Gorgeous view and fantastic room amenities! Excellent, excellent! The sea lions are entertaining but loud at night-easily solved with ear plugs or noise cancelling headphones. Worth it to watch them interact up close. One negative: Restaurant does not let you have food in room. Not even when we asked for soup because I was sick🙁🙁 staff there not so nice. Overall a great place to stay though! Highly recommend it!

Ocean, otter, and Morro rock views

Love this property. The room is pretty soundproof, can’t hear the sea lions with the door closed. Awesome robe

Perfect Place for A Quiet Weekend in Morro Bay

The Anderson Inn was the perfect spot for our weekend getaway to Morro Bay. We loved our sun-filled room and how close it was to everything. And the view? Wow.

Enjoyed our stay very much. The room was very clean and modern. I probably wouldn’t stay in the Shoreline room again, but I would choose the hotel again.

Beautiful room and conveniently located in Morrow Bay! It was disappointing however, that we never received the complimentary champagne to celebrate our anniversary as we were promised.

linda, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We have been traveling down the coast for the last three weeks and this is the best place that we have stayed! The port side room is perfect! We had a great view of the harbor, listen to the seals sing, watch the otters play, watched the pelicans fish during the day, and the sailboats Bob around in the bay. it was walkable to all of the local restaurants and easy to walk to parks and also the ocean. The parking was secure and easy to get in and out of, there is an elevator to make things easier to get your luggage up to the second floor accommodations. I have to say this place is perfect. We also had a microwave and a refrigerator. We cannot wait to go back!

Close to Beautiful MTB trails

Morro Bay is a great vacation spot! There weren’t a lot of tourists, and so much for is to do. We were super impressed with the accommodations and location. Coming from Las Vegas, the cool weather was a welcoming treat. Anderson Inn is conveniently located down by the bay. It has a cozy cabin feel with vaulted ceilings. The room was large enough for us to store our two mountain bikes. We have a large truck, and we had parking accommodations that felt safe and not on the street. The staff was super friendly. The only reason I marked down comfort to four stars is because my wife mentioned that the bed had a “hole,” and she couldn't get comfortable. However, I thought the bed was very comfortable, like sleeping on a cloud. If you have trouble sleeping with sounds, keep the window and doors closed. The seals and seagulls are vocal all day and night, but we thought it was part of the charm. We are looking forward to our next visit!
