This is our favorite place to visit in Morro Bay -- we try to get there once or twice a year, and we've always had a great stay.

Lots of outdoor seating areas ...
Sara, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Consider other options

We were a bit underwhelmed at this place. Given the nightly rate, I would've expected a little more. We understood this to be a budget option, but hooks came out of the wall, the cleanliness left something to be desired, and the walls were paper-thin (we could hear the toilet flushing next door and our neighbor slept with their TV on, which we heard all night. Check in was acceptable, and the bed was surprisingly comfortable.

Right at the Beach

This hotel is very nice and clean. It’s located right on the Embarcadero so everything was in walking distance. The only issue was that the walls are very thin and our first night we couldn’t sleep well from all of the noise. Other than that, it was a wonderful stay!
Sobhan, 3-night trip

It is located in bay side and good to walk around, and convenient to walk to the Morro rock as well as three stacks.

Good Location but do need customer service

The location was excellent. The service could be better. We have trouble with remote control which would not allow to change channel. I had to do it manually. There were not service in the evening. I was trying to find a ice machine for ice which was not available. I tried ringing for service at the lobby but there were no person working. Overall, if you are looking right at the pier, this is the place.

Funky older property with lots of charm. Friendly staff. Across the street from sea otters. Very small rooms. Dog-friendly. I"ve stayed here before and will again.
Tom, 1-night trip

Our stay was great. The location and views were perfect, and it was quiet and clean. The free cinnamon rolls in the morning were a nice added touch.

This place was really great for walking and just a short drive to visit Morro Rock and appreciate the Pacific Coast, see otters and seals. The new Maritime Museum is a plus also!
Donna, 2-night trip
