Cons: Room was very small and if checking in past 5pm, the room left unlocked with key inside. Also the ceiling fan had dust bunnies falling on us. Pros: Awesome view of Morro Rock, dog friendly and very comfortable bed. Plenty of parking and easily can walk to pier.

Floyd, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

This was a charming property in a great location—just a short walk to the harbor and shopping area. The room was on the smaller side, which was expected, and appeared clean overall. However, I did notice some small bugs in the shower, which was a bit off-putting. Check-in was smooth, but keep in mind the office closes at 5 PM, so be sure to arrange an alternate plan if arriving later. For the price, it met my expectations. I would consider staying here again if I return to Morro Bay.

Naomi, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Generally broken down. No updates since the 1960s. One outlet with strips running all over the floor. Dilapidated hotel. Expect more for $200 a night!

Olan, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Amazing location. Right across the street from the water. Great places to eat. View of the ocean and Morro rock. The room, well… The room was on the second floor. It had some soft spots on the floor and it was outdated and a little dirty. Only one room cleaning available per stay. Better that sleeping in your car.
Gabriela, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Sweet little spot right in front of Morro Rock.
Christine, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The man that runs this property is a very sweet and friendly gentleman, eager to make sure each guest is happy, comfortable, and treated with respect. He seems to truly care about each and every guest through his door, a rarity in this day and age. Guests aren't just a number here and that proved he has great customer service here. Lovely sitting area out front!
Michael, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Easy to access the hotel outside check in hours. There is a lovely seating area out front and there really are bay views. You can see the Morro Rock when you step out of the property! Breakfast was a cinnamon roll each from the cafe next door. Would stay there again!
